Has anyone else feel like they lost their interests a bit lately?
Like, I know a bunch, if not all, writers think their work is utter shit but their fans love it.
I LOVE to write. I LOVE coming up with ideas and characters and want to share them with people...
But it's like these first 3 months of the year have taken away any of my will to do anything. I look at a request and drive myself crazy trying to figure out where to go with it and make it so the person who requested it liked it and what they were looking for without me having anxiety that I may have done something wrong by accident.
I finally got started on a new chapter fic, but I haven't even started the first full chapter, just a prologue. And then I have ideas for 2 other chapter fics and want to write them but it's like...where is the will to do this stuff?
I have to try and not let the things that bring me down get in the way of something that brought me joy and start writing for myself and the way I want when I take requests. I should just have the mentality of "I do this for fun and if people want to request, they get what they get."
I have to try and find the joy that has been taken away from me and not let people (my ex) belittle me for doing something that I had called an "outlet" for my depression.
Writing was fun for me. It was great for me to get my ideas out to share with you all and for me to escape into a world where I was happy.
I'm sorry everyone who follows this blog for not delivering the content you all signed up for. I'm gonna try my damnest to get back to the way this blog started out.
I do thank you all for sticking around, those of you who did 💜
