Al Cu Ad Solte posted:I got 94k into my sixth (!!! how the gently caress did this happen?) novel and....I hate it and don't want to write it anymore. First time this has happened. With my previous five it was a mostly straight forward experience except for y'know the imposter syndrome but this time just...ugh. I'm wondering if I should just power through and finish it, since after this next chapter it's the home stretch onto the final act (so probably another 20k) or just shelve it for now and work on something else. Finish finish finish finish.

What I did when I got to that point on my first novel is I finished writing it as if I had made all the changes I felt I needed to and made notes for all of them. If I ever go back to it (I probably won't) I'll just have the first 40k or so words to fix with notes for all the changes and the rest of the book is pretty tidy.

I just want to say that the fox loving in The Magicians was great if you want to read how terrific fox loving can be written.

I have a problem with being too nice to my characters. All of my stories just sort of fade into this really boring situation where only good things are happening. I just really struggle putting a character through any sort of lasting trauma. Does anyone have any advice on getting over this?
