Life of a Couch Potato

Writer's Block or Procrastination?

As everyone... well I hope everyone... But regardless, I can't write. No joke. I can't write.

To be honest, I'm someone who has multiple ideas for stories... But I just never complete them... And sometimes you just hit the point in the road where your mind just grabs a pistol and -

Yup. That's me. My novel, The Life Game, was an idea I was totally excited to do. But I never thought I'd get into so much detail... And after thinking and thinking my mind just gives up.

But here's the thing. So some people say it's writer's block... But I feel like at the same time it's procrastination. Only applies to me though. Maybe. Sure. Why not.

I have a general idea of what I want to write, but at the same time I don't. Not only that, I keep thinking... I have other things I could be doing... But I want to write it... things like that.

I mean if you're passionate about something, I should be like, "Yeah! Let's write and knock the world down!" Something like that... But now when I write, I feel as if I'm being forced to write...

To be honest, compared to my 7th grade self, I've found that writing has gotten completely unbearable... which is funny since I update this book all the time. But I feel that things other people care about such as likes, views, followers, etc. has affected my motivation to write.

I mean I'm sure everyone has gone through this idea. You start a blog/website hoping to be noticed and realize it's like a gift from everything and anything holy once you get a follower. Is it just me?

Funny thing is, before when I started writing, it was literally all for fun. I didn't care if someone had like 5k subscribers or won a million awards, I just wrote to enjoy myself. But I think once I met more people who complained so much, I slowly became that kind of person.

And like all choices in my life, I majority regret that...

But yeah. I find myself typing when I feel its better than writing that damn dialectical journal... But am never satisfied with what I wrote... But hey. It's all part of getting better at writing right?

But hey... I might just be making excuses to not write my novel... or am I? Hehehehehhehe just kidding... I don't know any more.
