Maybe write shorter works that don't require such long term focus? It's hard...I don't think I could do it if I didn't really love it. If reviews and essays are what gives you most joy, that sounds like that route to go?
Writing is hard!
Yeah, I'm starting to wonder if I should give up fiction, to be honest. Or maybe give up this scifi series I'm writing lol. But I'm a completist, so...
Sounds like a hard call to make. Is there a way you can perhaps wrap up the scifi series sooner than you'd planned? That way you can have it complete, but also move on to your preferred projects sooner rather than later...
