I am in the field of applied math, and it took me 6 months to produce a paper. And now, I am out of ideas for new papers.

What should I do? How do I even continue? This is sooo difficult..

Well how good is the paper? If you've solved a Millenium problem, you have it made, at least for a while. Heck, Brian Josephson got a Nobel (physics) for a 3 page paper he wrote while a graduate student. So cheer up, anything is possible.

Yeah so it is not bad, but not also great. I expect it to be accepted in a conference, dunno where it would go though. Thanks!
