NaNo Burn Out

Well, I thought I should blog something today, just to make myself write, as much anything else. I think I may be suffering from post NaNo burn out. I worked so hard, so many hours each day, on writing my NaNo novel. Now that it's done, I'm really struggling to find anything to write. I think it's just because I spent two months focussing so much on NaNo, I'm feeling a little sad that the first draft is done. Don't get me wrong, I know it's a very rough first draft, and it requires multiple edits/ rewrites, but the creative, intense part is over. My baby is born. Now, I have to think about other characters and their stories. But I don't care about them yet.

Does anyone else feel this way when they finish NaNo, or any other endurance writing? Or is it just me?
