These problems may be multifaceted or involve subjective factors, making it necessary to approach them with a more intuitive or creative mindset in order to gain valuable insights.

Writing doesn't come real easy to me. I couldn't write a novel in a year. It wouldn't be readable. I don't let an editor even look at it until the second year, because it would just scare them. I just have to trust that all these scraps and dead-ends will find a way.
