I suspect that the only way to deal with it is to sit down at the keyboard and write. You may produce a few pages of junk, but you can revise them. If they're so bad that they aren't even worth revising, at least you've eliminated one possible path, and that may be enough to show you the right way forward.

Lillian Marek:
I'm an aspiring writer, but I'm dealing with two things: I get discouraged every single day because 96% of manuscripts are rejected, and I haven't had an idea for years, literally. There's too many people wanting to be writers, and knowing there's so much competition just kills me a little every day. When I get motivated, immediatly something appears about the industry that kills it. Any tips on how to deal with this?
