I constantly worry that I'm boring, that my characters aren't compelling enough and my plots are uninteresting. Then on top of that, I constantly worry that my longterm rp partners will give up on me because of my constant in and out activity. I always want to rp more, but that drive isn't always there depending on rl -- so it comes down to people being willing to put up with that because they like my writing or characters (or me, as a rp partner).
But what if it's not good enough? What if I get boring or cliche? What if my self-imposed standards of quality slip? What if my characters fail to grow or fall into a rut of bad dialogue and overgrown prose?
What if I'm not good enough?
Eugh.
At least I'm not alone! It's so easy to look at the things others have said in this thread (whose writing I know) and think 'oh, what do you have to worry about? You're an amazing writer, and your rp rocks!'
...sometimes impossible to say that to myself. We're all the same in that, aren't we? (out of the people posting here, anyways)
