I'm burnt out. I've worked on my current WIP for a while now, I'm tired of the revision and hate most words I write. How long do you all take a break for?
All I want is for an agent to just say to me, "Hey, you know, I loved your book. How about I offer you rep?" 😆 I just think that would be cool. Very cool.😂

Does anyone else every write sections of their book that they KNOW are going to get cut immediately upon revising? Idk sometimes I just have to add some unimportant stuff to get the words flowing, even if it's entire scenes.
One of my CPs who is a hardcore plotter sent me this. Spot on for me! I run on these moments. 😂I should probably dedicate my books to Sam Beam, Andrew Bird, Sufjan Stevens and the members of The National.
