Hmm. I’m puzzled. Should I assume that no comment means that it’s not good? Feedback isn’t everything but it is something. Anybody wanna beta read and let me know what sucks and what doesn’t?

Okay so last night I just sat down and started writing for the hell of it - I'm still thinking I suck so I don't want to put it out there for everyone to see yet - The story is called "Lucid Love" and it's kind of based on someone that I used to have feelings for...actually still do but he doesn't:

I don’t know if I’m continuing with my writing. I don’t feel like I can mentally support myself when my OCD attacks me. You guys make it seem really easy to write a story. It’s not fair. Lol. Plus my eyes are the other problem. I can still do stuff and that’s what pisses me off.
I actually took my “Superboy” idea and put it together with a different story that I have. It’s kind of the same story but not really.
But—I don’t really see it happening now

"You guys make it seem really easy to write a story."
You think! Don't feel so f'n sorry for yourself. Writing is a struggle, for most of us... and, what's more, going into detail of the why and what for would take a great amount of space, also time... time we could spend lamenting our own fragile efforts.
Do or do not.
Cheers and best of luck!

Completed chapters and stories are the end result of a lot of hard work. The end product is just that... the END of a process starting with a first draft, then revisions, then going through beta readers and editing. Good writers are constantly learning and looking for ways to improve. It's certainly not an easy process, but it's one I, personally, quite enjoy. If your OCD is affecting your enjoyment of writing and making things worse, maybe taking a break is a good idea. But if you truly want to continue, then you will at some point. Taking care of yourself comes first.

Hang in there, and don't be too hard on yourself. It takes time, and a lot of writing, to get even remotely close to where you want to be. The main requirement is the passion to be a good writer, but it is a craft that takes hard work and research. Read everything you can about the basics of writing, and then use what you're comfortable with. It might not be easy, but that's what makes it worth all the effort. And trust me on this, we all know what you're going through. Cheers... Gary....
