Coragem
Believer in flawed heroes
Just interested in your take on this.
We all know that writing (in my case a novel) can be an obsessive business, so we utterly immerse ourselves in the worlds and characters we create. It can be all-encompassing, and maybe there's a sense that we can never do enough?
I've often succumbed to the temptation of sleeping an hour or two less here or there, because I'm so anxious to progress with my work, and bring the ideas in my head to life.
The trouble is, when I'm tired there's a niggling doubt that my work isn't as good as it could be. The writing doesn't feel "just right".
Perhaps I should just be patient, sleep more, and focus on giving my brain (and creativity) the best chance to be lively and alight?
