Wish I could just… create. I’m so tired. Anonymous 120902
I’m so burnt out and miserable in my life, I try to use writing to escape but I can’t. I want to make a comic more than anything but once I plot out everything and have the script ready and I just have to draw it out all motivation is just… gone. Same with all the other creative projects in my life, I lose all drive to do them and it’s so goddamn frustrating , and I end up abandoning them.
I’ve vastly decreased my social media usage and have been getting decent enough sleep, and I’m an okay artist, I don’t know what I’m doing wrong!
I don’t want to be one of those failure artists that just go on social media to joke about how they never actually get anything done, and just talk about their story and never have any real project.
Smfh.
Does anybody know how to get out of this? It’s “first world problems” I know, but I really don’t want the shame and embarrassment hanging over my head years from now.

>>120902This is how I am with my writing. Sometimes you just don't have the inspiration or motivation. Let me know if you find a way to get it back nona

>>120902You just have to start. Tell yourself you're only going to do a simple sketch, and momentum will carry you. It's like when I don't want to clean. I tell myself I'm just going to dust a bit of one room, then it's all the rooms, then the house is basically done.
