Stuck · 5:18am Sep 16th, 2013
I'm sure nobody wants to hear this, because it happens to everybody, but I need to vent for a moment.
After a total (spread out over several months) of twenty hours or so of staring at the page that should be the next chapter of "To Love and to Lose", I've reached the point where I can't write anything. For a while, I moved on, I tried other projects, I managed to be adequately creative, until now, when I'm just at a dead end.
On one hand, I feel very guilty, because the story keeps getting liked and favourited. It's easily the most well-received thing I've ever written, I'm satisfied with where it is so far, and I want to continue it. I feel like I'm betraying the people that have favourited it by not continuing it. I can't write anything else because, at this point, if I write even one more word of prose on another project, I feel I will be abandoning TLatL.
On the other hand, I have several other projects I am working on (in various stages). Some of them are fanfiction, some of them aren't. And I don't want to just refuse to work on them because I can't continue TLatL.
I don't expect an answer to this, I don't expect assistance. I just wanted to scream this at the internet because, if I'm honest, I'm feeling inadequate and stuck.
Sorry for the ramble, and especially sorry if you feel like I'm being an angsty child.
