I know this is a normal cycle of creativity slump.

I know that having a gigantic event this week is taking a lot of thought process, leaving less for creativity.

I know that this has happened before and has always resulted in creative outpouring happening again.

I know making slow progress is still progress and that's important.

I know there's life stuff going on that's taking up a lot of time and causing emotional stuff, and it's more difficult to balance work life on top of that.

I know all of this, but I'm still worried that I'll never get my creativity back, that writing will be this painstaking forever.

If you ever think your chapters are too long: don’t.

I once read a fanfic that had a chapter totaling 60k words. A chapter.

You’re doing fine.

a lot of times I find myself comparing my writing to people who have been doing this way longer than me. I feel like it’s not good because i’m not at the same level they are, and if i change this or change that then maybe i’ll be happier with my works!

But, everyone starts somewhere. It takes time to find your writing style and even more time to get it to where you want it to be. Just because you feel your writing isn’t as good as someone else’s doesn’t mean you’re a horrible writer.

don’t compare yourself to people who’ve finished the process that you’ve just started !
