I have been stuck in neutral for sometime now creatively because I just didn’t know what I should do next. But I’m slowly beginning to get the urge to be creative again.
And, yet, I have to seriously reconsider one element of this — querying. I have begun to get more feedback from readers about the novel and it’s clear I need an editor that I simply can’t afford.
As such, I think I may, in an attempt not to make a fool out of myself, put a pause on the querying front while also plunging forward on the writing-a-new-novel front. The new novel has a lot of promise. But I’m really going to have to lean on AI for developmental backend of things.
Most professional novelists use spreadsheets in some respect to develop their novels and I just don’t think like that. But I can get a chatbot to help me, I suppose.
Anyway. I hope to throw myself into writing a new novel ASAP.
