Problem number 1

I have finally realized what my biggest problem is. I am not enjoying writing anymore. Writing has become work. I read one short chapter I had written about an year ago. It was funny, carefree and fun to read. That was because I didn't think much about it. I didn't think about the people who would read it, or its grammar, or its literary standards. In the last eight months, I have learned how to write correctly, but I have forgotten how to write.

I have forgotten the basic rule of writing. I should have fun while doing it. To heck with correctness.

I hope I get back my carefree writing again, otherwise I will become just like those hundreds of thousands of people, who write very correctly, but their writing holds no juice. It is just the dry pulp left behind after every drop of enjoyment has been squeezed out of the activity.
