i've recently completed the final draft of my first novel, and got an agent, and the book is being sent out to publishers currently. near the end of the writing of the book, i started a new project. that was like five months ago. but now, i can barely work on the new project at all: everything i write seems like something i WOULD write, or something i've already thought about, or something boring, and it's making me just doubt my writing completely, and almost hate writing. i feel like i might have written the only book i will ever write.
i feel like these might be normal problems, but it's really scary. just when i thought that i might be able to make a career out of this thing, it seems so so so far away from me. i don't even have interest in it. i can barely even read books.
if anyone has experienced this, what did you do? did you take a long break from writing?
