It's NaNo month and I still haven't cracked 10k words. It's... pretty pathetic. But I'm rewriting a book I wrote earlier this year, and it's slow going because it's kinda boring, tbh. I'm changing it from third person to first, with alternating POV, but the story itself is already written. It's boring to do this. I'm a pantser at heart, and I'm so, so bored with already knowing where the story goes.

Does anyone have any advice on keeping my story feeling fresh as I rewrite? Or keeping me sane and interested?

Uh, no advice itself but I feel you on rewriting. I'm converting a fic into origific and just finished the first round with was basically changing the names and pronouns everywhere. I've had to hold myself back a bit because I wanted to change it first before starting the actual rewrite/revision because I know it's easier for me like that.

I don't get bored when knowing where the story goes but I'm sort of exasperated by all the obvious plot/characterization holes removing fandom leaves. It's sort of curious.

No advice just lots of commiseration and hugs.
