Stuff and Things · 1:08am Aug 14th, 2014
It pains me to say this, but I won't be writing, or, depending on who you are, editing anything for a few days, maybe even weeks. I've just had a big lack of inspiration, and it feels like I have to force myself to write. I can assure you, that if I have to force myself to write, that it just won't be good whatsoever. I can't really say when I'll begin writing the next chapter of Equestria Uprising, because I just don't know yet. All I can say is to wait for it to be uploaded.
If you're wondering why all of this is happening, a big part of it is, like I said, a HUGE lack of inspiration. Another rather large part of it, at least in my opinion, is that I'm setting a bar for myself, that I feel like I won't be able to reach.
To explain, I've been trying really hard with my last couple of chapters to increase my skill in writing, and expand my writing vocabulary, and, at least in my opinion, it worked really well. The problem is, I'm constantly wanting to get better, and better, yet, at the moment, I feel like what I would write, and what I am writing with a secret side story, just isn't up to par, or exceeding my expectations. What I mean is, I feel like I'm trying to write to a higher quality than I can reach, and it's horribly demotivating. Every time I try to write, I'm constantly criticizing myself, and trying to out perform my previous chapters, and it frustrates me, when I feel like I'm not writing as good as I can. Knowing that, I don't want to put out something, that I know isn't my best.
So yea, stuff and things.
