I asked for this. I'm not sure if I appreciate you answering or if I regret asking. Your writing is excellent. If you write anything other than hyper realistic truck stop gay erotica you should really try to publish. Holy crap. You're good

If you do happen to specialize in hyper realistic gay erotica I may have a commission or two for you, though! :p

I love writing but I lack commitment. Ive penned a few well recieved short stories and I can turn a good phrase but I know if I ever tried to commit to longer form Id see.something shiny and give up pretty fast.

I have my own Scifi universe Im working on but thats very much a work in progress.

I'm exactly the same. If I had the commitment, I think I could actually publish a novel or two. People tell me I'm good. But I just cannot focus long enough to write more than 20 pages.
