There's nothing quite like that awful silence between the time you deliver a manuscript and the time you get your first feedback--especially when it's a project where you're not sure if it worked or not.
It's the same when you think it really, really worked...only to learn that no, it didn't. Because the brain shut down the Eternal Tweakage of the Overworked Mind section because the book was already, like, fine. It took me three months to gear up that section of my brain again. mizkit could have written two books and a graphic novel in that time.
