Now I’m fine-tuning for the query process and I’ve edited it so much there’s just no magic left when I look at it. I just hate it so much! But maybe that means I’m headed in the right direction.

I was still depressed when I woke up this morning. But then I got a handle on a whole new way of approaching the story, and now Draft 4.5 (yeah, I had already started on draft 4) will be a complete rewrite. The end is nowhere in sight, but I feel better.

I NEEDED to read this. Thank you. I’ve just finished my 3rd draft of my book and it’s dawned on my that I hate it. I’m fairly certain that it’s garbage and that my writing hasn’t improved since I was in middle school writing fanfiction. Thank you for this post. I will push this and work hard to take this as far as I can. Thanks for the encouragement.

My manuscript has been edited and proofread. I’m still editing the proof read, since I see some editorial mistakes. After a few more reads, I just want to go ahead and publish it. I NEVER WANT TO READ THIS BOOK AGAIN. I’VE READ IT OVER A HUNDRED TIMES. Even if it sucks, I just want it to be readable without so many compound sentences; that’s been my issue.

I was so sick of my own book by the last revision that I could not even read the final draft. Plus my publisher and I wrangled on some topics and I totally lost interest in the book. Even though I have put many months in writing and working on it, I feel quite disassociated from it right now. :/

And yet I keep getting it wrong in terms of not only grammar and punctuation, but the tone and syntax still comes across as dumb and unwitty. It’s like I’m not conveying what I really think. What is wrong with me? I’m just not the writing kind, but I don’t want to hire a ghost writer. I want to do it on my own. I feel like I’m living a do or die moment.

I don’t think I’ve truly read something like that before. So nice to discover someone with some original thoughts on this topic. Really.. many thanks for starting this up. This site is something that is needed on the internet, someone with a little originality!

However, what about this? what if you added a little content? I ain’t suggesting your information is not solid, but suppose you added a title that makes people desire more? I mean I Hate My Book! | Rachelle Gardner is a little vanilla. You ought to peek at Yahoo’s front page and watch how they create post headlines to get viewers to click. You might add a related video or a picture or two to grab readers interested about everything’ve got to say. Just my opinion, it might make your posts a little bit more interesting.

I actually do have a couple of questions for you if you don’t mind. Is it simply me or do some of the remarks look like they are coming from brain dead people? 😛 And, if you are writing on other sites, I would like to keep up with you. Could you make a list of all of your shared pages like your twitter feed, Facebook page or linkedin profile?
