This is something I've been thinking about re: my currrent WIP.
I am not bored, I don't hate the book (even though I joke that I do), but it's really damn hard to get it written. I'm struggling with my word choices. I nitpick every piece of imagery, every sense that my character is using and how I'm trying to portray it.
It's really, really hard. So, I'm wondering...do you think this is a sign of a flaw in my story (POV, tense, etc.), or maybe I'm just trying to write a story that's just beyond my capabilities at the moment?
Also, if this has happened to anyone else, what did you do? How did you handle it?
Could really use some advice here, before I completely crap out on this one...
