I always took long walks when that happened and started writing again when I got home. Wouldn’t work now, of course. Have to be able to hold onto memories for at least an hour.
Hmm – she wrote the entire book with no problems at all which resulted in it being so good that there was a bidding war. Exactly what is she supposed to be rewriting and why is it suddenly so difficult?
Over the decades I’ve done a bit of “professional” writing. As in, got paid for my scribbling. I love to write, I love the “creative process” but I cannot imagine trying to do it for a living. Got paid for a few non-fiction articles and had a regular column in a specialty hobby publication. If you love what you do it isn’t work, but even writing about a topic you are passionate about is draining when you are on a deadline.
It takes a very special kind of mind to be able to turn on the faucet and pour out QUALITY content day in and day out.

It would be nice if he could help her.

It would also be nice if he would leave her alone and let her think if he won’t help her. Though I think he’s trying to make her fail.

Don’t be a gloat goat dude. “I told you so” is a one way ticket to the couch, or in some extreme cases, a night in the back of the car.

Actually I think he’s sympathizing with her plight, having been there, done that.
