One of the reasons I think I’m struggling through the endgame of this novel is that, with basically everything else I’ve ever written, I’ve always had a template of some kind to look at and draw inspiration from. Here, with this book, I can’t recall anything I’ve ever seen that is like this. That’s both pro and con: the pro is that I feel like I’m crafting something truly original, the con is that I feel vaguely uninspired and will have to go back over this with a careful eye and really flesh it out. Writer problems, I tell ya.
