Delighting in the whimsical charm of these posts! Thrilled to stumble upon this gem through a fellow Substack wordsmith :) https://blumgirocket.gitlab.io/
I wish I were lying when I say I have written two novels except for their last chapter. "This book's great," I think, "I'll take a week off so I'm fully charged to nail the ending." One of those weeks is now in its 14th month. The other has topped 14 years. For the exact reasons you're talking about here. Alack... How about a vaccine for self-doubt?
