I am so dang frustrated. My head aches and I haven't been able to write. Mostly, there's this big part of me that just keeps saying, "Why write? You're so stupid to waste your time. If you're going to write at all, it should be screenplays and shorts."
But I am drawn to writing my books. It will take forever to finish if the weekdays are filled with day job and I keep missing weekend days for headaches. So why do I feel so driven to write a novel? My head feels frustrated, dizzy when I try to consider the big picture, the major plot.
My logical brain keeps saying to set it aside and write a tv pilot, keep freelancing, leave the novels for later. But then my creative side just refuses to do that.
I am so angry with myself and so upset that I just can't do anything. Everything I DO write reads like crap. Sorry to be a downer. Does anyone else ever feel this way? Maybe the act of writing it down will help.
Just venting,
Lucie
