I hate the middle of book 2 in my Druids series, Dark Desire of the Druids 2: Sex & Subterfuge. I hated it so much I gutted it last week and wrote fresh. It's still not great. I don't know what's wrong, the first 1/3 has humor, sex, sexy banter, devious villains and their nefarious plots. The ending is full of heartbreak, climatic scenes, more sex, and lots of magick.
But the middle? Not so much.
I'm still in the process of polishing it, and I know it'll ever be PERFECT, but I hate to have anything less than stellar. So I forebare, going over scenes, cutting, adding, tweaking, and hoping the middle turns into something half-way great.
It's how I'm spending my Thursday night. At least it's too cold out to do anything else!

Hey Isabel!
I can so relate. I hate the middles of books, LOL. It would be great if we could just write the beginnings and the endings, wouldn't it?
But probalby not so great for sales! *G*
