Advice needed / wanted - 08/23/2006
Ok, guys. I'm having a mini fight within myself and so I thought to ask you.
Here's the deal: There is money to be made in non-fiction writing. I have a shot at a relatively decent short-term contract and have done a little bit of preliminary work. But I am SO not motivated to do this project! It's not as if it's difficult, theoretically I could finish it in a relatively short time. But the words just don't flow, the spark / desire is not there (and that ought to say something drastic is wrong, when *I* turn down a paycheck!). When I do work on it, it's like I'm slogging through lingual quicksand, the words fight me.
Should I try to find a way to slog through (and hope I get the contract and then fight through the whole project) or should I just decline and try not to kick myself in the arse every time I think about the (possible) money turned down?
