I tried to do what you did, forcing myself to write, but I only got reaching page 14, just to realise that I don't have a conflict, and it's supposed to be a short story, not a novel....
The way I battle that is to do a little planning before I start writing and make sure I have plenty of conflict.
I don't know what to do, to be honest. I wanted to be a writer, but at this pace, I don't think I'll ever get it
Well, don't give up. I always recommend a lot of blogs and websites for beginning writers, like Seekerville.blogspot.com which has a ton of great articles on writing. The main thing to remember as a writer is Never Give Up! You never know when things are going to suddenly turn around for you. :-)
That's true, and I believe it... But it's so hard... I've been more than two years with thing that it's like looking at a wall, all's blank, and I have nothing, nothing... I tried with a tip I saw once, that to overcome writer's block you need to write fanfiction, so I did... But I don't think it's working. Thanks for the link, I'll give it a try

I'm sorry. I know it's frustrating. Maybe God is leading you to something else. Maybe it will help to pray about it. Saying a prayer for you.
I know He knows the right moment, that it will be perfect, and everything... But it's not good for my patience.
You're so nice. And I must say, your books have amazing covers, and sound great to read
Thanks, Cintia! I hope you checked out Seekerville's blog post yesterday. It was about "building" your story.
I didn't have the chance, but if I can, I'll do it today
