>>9621147
I don't. I sacrificed my teenage years embracing loneliness and delving into my deepest nightmares to create something meaningful to me. Every day has been consumed by creation and now I suddenly stopped producing anything at all
>>

I don't want to be a writer, never wanted to be one at all. My whole life has simply been me creating art and stories in one form or another, and I realized writing is the medium where I can do this alone for now with no budget or help.

>>9621231
The idea is less to create something meaningful and instead to transcend myself and my story onto a medium. I don't want all of the suffering and loneliness to be completely useless while everyone else is fucking and living

There's a million different tricks out there and not all of them will work for everyone, I've personally got this book on my desk. That other guy's right though, it's discipline you need to build, because a well of feeling will eventually run dry.

Theres a difference between wanting to be something and needing to be something. People who want to be writers rarely ever had the drive to actually say something before they made the decision to write

>what distress you got? maybe write about being ronery

The book is about hate, evil, manhood, impotence, betrayal
>>
writers block just means youre worrying about something more important than your stupid book. go work on that.

take some time out on long walks and figure that shit out.

Maybe this is true. Ive been devoting almost all of my time in the last weeks into taking a new fighting game dead seriously

The problem is I feel extremely guilty about getting zero work done since I want the book to be ready before 2019

Injustice 2. Its why I briefly thought about trying to write some batman short stories if my block on my main project continues
>>
>>9621407
nice

could always write a game review or something too if the wheels of fiction aren't turning

or just contemplate the world of aesthetics at simulation like a patrician
>>
>>9621389

Take a break then and enjoy this game for a bit. Most great novels took years to write, many with hiatus periods.

Ive already been working on the conceptual stage for around 3 years. I feel obligated to start doing more of the actual writing now

Read.

since this is 4chan and so 95% chance you're in the 18-25 demog, there's almost certainly a ton of shit that you should read that you haven't read yet unless you're an autistic shut-in

the overwhelming majority of truly great writers were and are *fucking* erudite

You're creating your own problems because "writer's block" isn't actually real. I don't know you or your situation but you're most likely lacking discipline. Set aside a few hours for just writing. If nothing comes to your mind just sit there stare at your paper or blank screen for a few hours every single day. No exceptions, no distractions, you're either writing or you're staring at nothing. This is the common thread between every prolific writer, none of whom can ever recall experiencing "writer's block."
