Go through an "I suck" moment. I mean, you know you don't really suck. You know from all the books you have read (books that have done well) you're ideas and style are pretty good. Not perfect, but definately not in the "I suck" catagory.
I find myself doing this a lot especially on a long piece and usually when I'm on that 5th rewrite or more and wanting to stab myself in the eye with a pencil.
Sometimes I find myself obsessing about a particular scene and read it over and over and over until I just can't stand it any more...
Does anyone else worry a manuscript like this? Or do I need to go on meds?
