Whatcha trying to write?

My ever continuing Kingdom Hearts Re-Imagined Saga....First story was finished and now I'm working on Chain of Memories....Although I've been re-working the First Story on the side when i realized i might have structured it wonky.

Hmmm.
I have this idea about a Dr. Hooves MLP story with Spike.
Been toying with it for a while.

Anyway, um, why do you think you've lost the writing spark?

IDK.....Just feel like my style doesn't have a umph.....It's just a feeling.

….sorry, don't know how to help there.

What is "Umph"?
What is your style?

Sorry if I'm being nosy, I'm trying to understand what's going on.
Sometimes, discussing things might reveal your problem or a different way to see things.

Umph is that extra flavor....I feel my style is a bit too bland and direct at points.

Define bland as you say it.

You can be less direct, but some readers won't get it.

Do you use a lot of description?
That is a way to show users things without saying directly.

I think it may just be a bit of a burnout. It's something that happens with any creator online; they get to a point where they hit a wall/slump.

Some advice I have to try and get past this is to take a break for a short while so your mind can rest and be able to better work on the next project. Try to take it one project at a time, it will help with keeping things from getting too crazy. Also, try to find out what gave you that spark to begin with and try to ignite that same spark in your current projects and just do what you feel is right and what you want to do; it's your story, after all.
