‘I Can’t Bring Myself to Write Anymore.’
I experienced something like what R describes. For me the key was to shift my focus away from any creative activity that seemed connected to my career goals in any way. I wrote seriously in order to express my experience and I shared my writing with others, but I didn’t try to use it to make progress toward a future position as a professional.
