Bonny asked Glynnis Campbell:

What is the most stressful thing about writing?

Glynnis Campbell Great question! As lovely a career as writing is, a lot of it is stressful--looming deadlines, sagging plots, characters that won't cooperate, marketing that goes awry, bad reviews, real life getting in the way of writing. I guess the worst stress is when a book I'm deeply invested in stops working, when it either becomes boring or unbelievable. It's my job to fix it, and it's not always clear how to do that. Even though I've found my way out of the woods in every book I've written, it always feels like this time I'm going to be lost forever--LOL!
