ann_leckieOh, what a frustrating morning. All my exposition is crammed into a few dull conversations. Very dull. Very lifeless. Very obviously exposition. I have to fix it. Gah! I just spent two hours staring out the coffee house window trying to figure out just how the heck I'm going to do that.
I think I might have found a solution. Maybe. At least I might be able to rearrange things so it's not one long chunk of dull conversation in the middle of the novel. For the rest....I don't know.
It's just one of those hard days, and it didn't help that this morning in the shower I was visited by one of those "this just isn't worth it" attacks. You know, those moments when your whole story just seems thin and stupid, and you wonder why you've spent so much time and energy on it when it's just a futile waste of time, you don't have any talent anyway, and what were you even thinking?
It hasn't quite passed yet. But I know from experience that it will, eventually, and I can only hope that I'll see my way clear through my problem soon.
