      For me, I don't really get bored or lose interest in stories so much as get intimidated by them. I tend to have really complicated ideas that sound great in theory, but when it comes to actually translating those onto a page, I just feel... daunted. The task feels beyond me. I obsess over every sentence, every word, trying to get the mood and atmosphere right, to convey the themes I want to with subtlety and grace, to bring my characters to life without turning them into caricatures... and in the end, I just never feel up to the task.  
 
And if I do start writing, I never last long. I get burned out very easily, for the same reasons as above.
     
    
      
      
      Cold silence has a tendency 
to atrophy any sense of compassion 
between supposed lovers. 
Between supposed brothers.
