Questions to ponder part 12
FrickingKaos:
I think one reason a lot of people aren't writing lately is due to life getting in the way. I'm sure once spring/ summer comes around it will pick back up. At least that's what I am hoping lol

Have you ever gone on a hiatus from writing? Was it due to life getting in the way? Or just being uninspired?
How long was your writing break, and how did you get yourself the spark to write again?
I should have said "questions" but hope that this sparks a discussion. I know I could sure use some tips to bring
My muse back.

Not intentionally. I don't ever go on hiatus really. I more or less just take longer to update cause of life getting in the way. Like I went about three months from my last update for Show Me and before that I was updating once a week. I'm trying to get myself consistent again.

I know some of you aren't big readers but I am curious on this as well. If not, what stories have you been reading lately? (I'm looking for new stories to read myself)

LOL yes but not because I don't want to read. It's because the stories I was reading are written by people having the same problem I am - reality getting in the way!

When I lose interest in the fandom, I lose interest in the fandom so yes, not really reading anything either. Maybe in the summer. We'll see. I'm hoping this documentary coming out the day before my birthday will re-ignite the dwindling love I have for BSB.

I'm way too ADHD to be a good reader. I don't know how people do it. Especially those 50+ chapter behemoths!
I can usually make it okay for the first four or five chapters and then I'm like BALL! SHINY! GLITTER! and I'm out. I'm sure anyone who has had me review one of their stories can attest that reviews from me stop well before chapter 10 lol sorry about that. It's not you, it's me ;)
That's probably why so many of my earlier written stories aren't longer than 15 chapters. I don't watch TV unless its binge watching bc there's no way I can keep up with a show. If you look on my bookshelf, the very few books I own almost all have a bookmark or a dog ear in the first 1/4 of the book bc I never finish them. I think I've successfully finished 1 book in the last 5 years.
