Is there any hope?
- There is always hope - the only way there is no hope is if you give up forever. Otherwise hope persists.
- “Hope is like the sun. If you only believe in it when you see it, you'll never make it through the night”
How to pull yourself out of the depths?
- Strategies:
- Take a break (from writing/social media - whatever works for you)
- Reflect on why you’re writing
- Write something only for you
- Forget everything you know about the industry/chances of publication and write like a newbie.
- Try not to over-analyse or think while you write - forget all that craft knowledge, especially during a first draft. The time for applying that can come later.
- Tell someone how you feel - EVERY writer will have felt this despair at some point. They will empathise and may have a kind word or two to say to you that might help. At the very least, you'll know you’re not alone.
