I honestly think I have a problem that is probably over exaggerated but it's literally stopping me from writing. I've never been really 'able' to write long. My usual stories have been from 30,000-40,000 at most. Most people have around 50,000-100,000+. I mean, I think i've grown so jealous that I can't write my stories from the bottom of my heart unless it has a certain amount of words. I feel like writing short is just unappealing and a bigger problem I have is writing my chapters short as well (even know anna karenina has chapters that are like 5 pages long). I've tried to extend my sub-plots and my story feels really unappealing after. Are there any writing exercises or something I could possibly do about it, or am I just worrying for all the wrong reasons?
