I am about 44,000 words in & progress on the novel has slowed to a crawl. It is the stupidest novel in the history of literacy. The characters are boring, their problems ridiculous, & inflicting them on readers would be an insult. These feelings at this stage are normal. #writing #writingthebook 📚
Excerpt page from Edward Gorey’s book The Unstrung Harp or Mr Earbrass Writes a Novel. Illustration shows a distraught man in a banyan holding a manuscript, covering his face with his other hand in horror. Text reads: Mr Earbrass has rashly been skimming through the early chapters, which he has not looked at for months, and now sees TUH for what it is. Dreadful, dreadful, DREADFUL. He must be mad to go on enduring the unexquisite agony of writing when it all turns out drivel. Mad. Why did n't he become a spy? How does one become one? He will burn the MS. Why is there no fire? Why are n't there the makings of one? How did he get in the unused room on the third floor?
