@blackdog @bibliophile, no… I’ve always struggled to get things done. I remember my mom helping me finish things when I was a kid. I always had these awesome title pages with some picture that a kid my age would surely not have been able to draw.
Speaking of titles, I would often come up with the title first and then think… now what?? But I’ve always been pretty good at writing. Once I got my head into things and was interested I could write prose like the world had never seen. I was often helping my sister with her assignment proofreading and would gleefully tear her reports apart and rewrite entire sections, often getting her great marks. But if it didn’t interest me… it would just sit there until I got a kick in the butt by mom to get it done (often with her helping me late at night the day before it was due) or I was begging for an extension in which my perfectionism would kick into overdrive and I’d get it done because I hated getting bad grades.
Talking about this is helping me remember these things… thanks.
