Congratulate yourself it is a great internal achievement to finish writing something. I just published my first book this month, I'm not sure how the mojo came, it certainly wasn't a special month though I did manage 10K words during last NaNoWriMo.

The floodgates opening for me was being stuck in a hotel room during a cyclone for 3 days without power and an old Chromebook which I nursed to fourteen hours of battery by turning the brightness all the way down and closing the lid to put it in sleep mode during the times I was thinking. That got me the re-start I needed.

hehe that is an awesome story. I've always loved how constraints somehow make us more creative rather than less.
