I'm young, i've written a 121,885 word novel in the mystery/adventure/fantasy genre. now as i'm going through one of my final revisions, i find that i am going through a writers block halfway through the book. my main problem is my terrible self-esteem when i stare at my work. i'm actually a very confident person, but even when people say it is good, even when i know that it is actually publishing material, i am almost erupting in tears because i know my dream of becoming published is never going to happen. as i ask this question on self doubt, you are first going to ask if it really is good, or you'll doubt me just as i doubt myself. but i guess that is how the world works. how can i know that my novel is good enough? how do i stop freaking out about it? any other questions that i didn't ask and you can answer, please do. thanks in advance.
