I've stopped hating my second book.
I don't know how it happened exactly. Probably because I stopped writing for three days and cursed and cried a lot and was angry and sullen with my spouse.
Then? I don't know. I opened up the file and changed a really bad swear to: something that is followed immediately by "and the horse you rode in on".
And that? Made me laugh.
So I'm up to 16,358 words now.
It's going well.

Very, very good.
Can't wait to read it!
I think it's pretty normal to alternate between hate, love, and ambivalence towards your work in progress, but you had plenty of good reasons to hate it and I'm glad you're finding the love.
You're counting the words?!??
Cool.
I think you're wonderful. And, if I type that 16,354 more times, I'll have caught up with you! :)
Ah, yes, the horse you rode in on. As many times as I say that I should have a water trough out front for my husband's trust steed.
