You write because you love it. That is all. It is simple. This has nothing to do with publishing or politics, or religion. Do you enjoy what you do? If your answer is no, then why? Did you fall in love with an idea? Or did you fall in love with a purpose? If you are not in love with the telling, the writing of tales, then there is no hope for you. Don't you understand? It is the story and the storyteller that are entwined, not "did that sentence make sense?" or "Do you like my character?" Did that sentence make sense to you, if it did, then it will make sense. If your character is likeable it is because you wrote it the way you wanted that character to be. Don't forget everyone who posts here can do this, can tell stories, sorry, if that is a disappointment. But that is what it is about. There is no better story teller. There are stories. You make them, create them, then do so. And you will. If you want to know how to write an action scene, then do it! Don't ask. Just do, and you will. I am not being harsh here, I just think that stories are meant to be told, tell them, but don't expect anything. We all feel things, loss and pain, and love and grief, we are a paradox, because we want to believe. Believe it. It will happen. And you are a grand bunch, and I have nothing but the highest esteem for you. Just be patient. You'll see.
