@matrix This is like me with writing, minus the tell everyone about the project part. In my case, the flowchart continues after "start project": >Start following a narrative thread. >Get inspired by how its going and start brainstorming other stories (or topics if its non-fic). >Rationalize why these new ideas for projects would be a better starting point than what I'm working on, or why they'd be much shorter and faster to then proof-read and publish somewhere, and why they'd also attract new readers >Start writing those thinking I'll finish them soon >Get new idea
And that's why I have rarely published anything despite having written regularly for almost a decade now.
