I've always wanted to be a creative ever since I was young. I've day dreamed about being one and tried working my ass off trying to write ever since I was around 12. My parents tried pushing me towards it for school assignments. I also wanted to draw but never got into it seriously.

I've been wanting to write again for nearly 2 years now and have barely made any progress towards that goal. I've only done one little drabble like 2 years ago and haven't done any exercises since then. I've been trying to get myself to write, but all of it looks too complicated and exhausting for me. I've tried multiple different strategies, but they never seem to work. I've tried forcing myself to write, but can only make myself write a couple of sentences for barely 30 seconds before stopping and looking at my phone again.

I've never been able to complete a single multichapter story in my entire life and actually coming up with stories isn't much better. I can't think anything through and everything about trying to make an entire story looks too hard for me. I want to be a creative really badly, but nothing I've done seems to have amounted to much of anything. I want to become one so badly, and I want to stop wasting my life doing nothing.

You could try using AI chatbots to act out scenarios and build a narrative from there. I do this frequently - I came up with the framework for a fantasy political drama after roleplaying as the youngest prince of an empire seeking out a werewolf chieftess (the bot) to assist me in a coup. You won't get the most mind-blowing writing or narratives, but it's definitely useful for getting the creative juices flowing, and it's far easier to fit in 15-20 minutes of writing this way.

>getting pissed that someone is trying to give advice on the fucking advice board
Nah but you're right, m8. I'll make it a point to do a ctrl+F on every new thread, and if it finds the word "how" anywhere I'll just tell them to kill themselves with a gore pic to get the point across. Thanks, anon, you really showed me the error of my ways.

He makes the effort the debate people and waste their time. That's his hobby. He's been doing it here for over two years. I can't believe he still gets this many replies if someone doesn't call him out early.
