Please brain tell me what I'm doing wrong

I wonder if making a post talking about my current WIPs and what makes me feel Bad about them would help me get back into writing or if that would just be more navel-gazing.

(And if it would be more navel-gazing, would that even be a bad thing?)

I feel that. I've been consciously trying to get past the "anything I post about my writing must be Worthwhile and not just me working out the kinks in an idea that needs a little more editing", and I am...bad at it.

Here's hoping the writing crisis resolves itself for you! That's not fun at all.

Thank you :') I may just give in and start Prime over instead of holding it over my head as a prize I can get once I've published A Thing.

Because I write all the time! It's just not fic :'D

If it helps, my entire wordcount from the last two days is writing up information about a cracky AU involving Starscream's ghost from an entirely different AU rather than working on any of my serious fics?

Starting Prime over sounds fantastic and I'm kind of tempted to do the same, tbh. No such thing as watching it too often (and maybe it'll kickstart the fic? Every once in a while that works for me)

The last thing I got words down on is a frankly domestic sounding argument between Wheeljack and Impactor on the Wrecker war chronicles story I've been poking at on and off. I'm super tempted to split that thing into a few drabbles and just post it a few thousand words at a time instead of just posting the whole thing, really.

That sounds fantastic, tbh, and I'd totally read this domestic-sounding argument.
