I’ve noticed that whenever I get really deep into a story, I eventually hit a point where I start questioning everything. The characters suddenly feel boring, the plot feels predictable, and sentences I liked a few days ago suddenly seem terrible...

I know every writer goes through periods of doubt but I’m curious how you guys deal with it. Do you push through and keep writing, take a break, completely rewrite things, or just accept that some days the writing is going to feel bad?

I’d especially love to hear from people who’ve been writing for a while. What actually helped you get past that stage without abandoning the story?
