Have Fun in Florida…

I’m going on vacation soon for a few days, maybe while I’m there, I could write more Young Kwazii or draw more Ami.

@jhardgraves yeah, you’re right. I did last year and really it felt like I was working on a project instead of a hobby. But at least I’m getting better.

@Octonauts16 you should use your vacation to relax and not have to worry about anything

Slowly getting better. Mental I’m fine. But with this new department I’m in, my body is slowly getting better.

Life Update:
          
          First, I want to thank everyone who sent writing tips via DM on IG. I’ve been working in retail for two years, and I acknowledge that I’ve neglected y’all—not intentionally. Lately, I've been burned out from work, which has affected my motivation to write or draw Ami. However, my retail store is transitioning me to a different department, promising that I won't be as stressed. This change should reduce my burnout, and I’m confident it will motivate me to create again.
          
          Stay safe.
          
          Stay hydrated.
          
          Peace & Love.
          
          ^_^

@Dragons_r_us I've heard of that too. But they noticed how stressed I was getting, and as a result, they are moving me to a different department with a better routine and instruction. I have high hopes for it, and I'm starting to feel motivated to write again.

@Octonauts16 I’ve heard that working in retail is generally not good for autistic people and can lead to burnout

Every time I feel like writing a book, it feels more like a chore than a hobby I look forward to.
          
          I've been wanting to continue Young Kwazii for a while. But I just don't have the motivation. 
          
          Are there any tips?

@Octonauts16 I agree with @Uniquedoll602. Happens a lot to me too. I just open a blank document or the draft I left on, and then start typing whatever I could think of. It actually works for me

@Octonauts16 I feel that all the time. All I can tell you is just jump right in. You'd be surprised how easy it becomes to get it all out
