hmmm. This feels true and very needed advice. I think for me as a first time author I get so hung up on all the plot structures and world building, but at the end of the day the only thing that is really getting me through this first book is simply writing and figuring it out as I go. And when I'm done I have to be ok with it being a bad book. Cause I have to continually tell myself that I'm in this for the long haul, not just for one book.
