You've been writing your novel or short story, and for a while you were inspired, but as quickly as the inspiration arrived, it's departed.

This is a dangerous situation, because while you feel this way it's hard for you to imagine that your writing is good and worthwhile. You think it's awful, and you're tempted to delete the project from your computer.

Read the rest.
