“As soon as you connect with your true subject, you will write.”
- Joyce Carol Oates
Have you found that this is true? I’m in that spot now. I’ve got quite a bit of a novel wrote, but I feel like the heart of it is missing. I guess I’m looking for my true subject.
I feel like I have a lot of good words, but it just won’t quite come alive for me. What do you do when you’re in that spot? To me its different than writer’s block in the fact that I can write and know where the writing is going. I just feel like I’m missing a main ingredient. Its like leaving the yeast out of bread. It doesn’t rise in the way its suppose to.
