Does anyone else deal with this? What do you do if/when you run into the problem?
I've decided that my current WIP, Undermined, is fairly good, but not quite there yet. I haven't finished writing it, but if the first 32,000 words aren't up to snuff, then the rest won't be.
Actually, it's the plots that bother me. When I started writing Undermined, I intended to make a series of books with two characters who "hop" to parallel worlds to find treasures to take back to their world to help pay off debts that caused foreign galaxies to launch a massive attack on the Solar System. In each book, there would be a subplot to support the main plot--which was, of course, to get those treasures.
Now I have something called the Final Dreamer (which was planned for book five but somehow ended up in book one), a hero who belongs where he is but somehow got tangled up with the Final Dreamer (Molgrim, who was not supposed to feature in the last book), a major war, and a political intrigue. All of it written in a good way, but not quite. . . you get the point.
Whew, that got long.
