Sometimes I’m wondering — Where is my writing life going? Do I suck so hard at writing? Or is my mind just playing tricks on me?

Who wouldn’t love to be at the peak of their writing journey?

Me! ME!

I would love to believe this is not my peak and that I can do more. But here I was made to think that I could not.

Why? Why’s that? What made me believe I stand at an impasse?

Everything. Literally, everything I’m doing and writing, as for now.

I had a minor career in writing about my passion and even earning from it. But like every dream, everything must come to an end.

Of course, not everything may have to do with this. Sometimes, I’m trying to brainstorm what to do next and compel a plan for the future, but not often do I reflect back on myself to check what I’m doing wrong.

Maybe everything.

When I started writing from passion a few years back (more like 7–8 years ago), I attempted to create a dozen blogs but never stuck to one, so I have not found utter success in being financially independent that way.

That was my first mistake.

Back then, I really sucked at writing, but Google loved me. Now I’m “okay” at writing, but Google hates me — For real, that I believe I’m doing something wrong. Perhaps I’m not “okay” at writing, and I really suck, so my title is not clickbaity.

It’s been a long time since I started writing a book. I had such a vivid imagination, so I dropped about 30–50k words (I can’t remember how much). I gave it up; it’s a draft file I lost interest in, and it sits somewhere at the bottom of my hard drive — I mean, I’ve never lost interest, but like with all of us, time was an issue.
