Writing is a skill, not a talent. If you ever find yourself asking: 'should I continue'? The answer is always, always yes. You're aware of areas you need to work on and skill-sets within your writing you need to shore up, so...you just gotta take the time to better yourself in those areas. Easier said than done, because that's going to take time, study, and a whole lot of practice, but it's doable. Tedious, but doable. There are books like 'The Elements of Style' by E.B. White and William Strunk Jr.', and for a more comprehensive guide to study there's also The Chicago Manuel of Style and so on.

Self-doubt, uncertainty, and feeling lost and frustrated are normal things that most every writer has experienced at least once or more in their careers and creative journeys. Best advice I can give is take a little break, read some books for fun. Maybe take out one of your most recent stories, and one of your oldest stories, and compare and contrast, help yourself see how much you've already grown while also try to hone in on specific grammatical and structural problems that keep cropping up persistently and how you can correct them. You could also just try writing something different than the usual, a change of pace and genre might help? But don't be afraid to give yourself breaks or step away for a bit if you're feeling lost, overwhelmed, or frustrated. Writing can be challenging and time-consuming labor of love, it shouldn't make you feel so frustrated you just want to quit though.

If it's any consolation I still struggle with properly pluralizing a lot of words and despite my best efforts my writing is riddled with little punctuation, spelling and grammatical errors all the time too. All you can do is study and work to learn and memorize the technical bits, and train your eyes and mind to spot these little errors on edit.

I hope you won't let this set-back keep you from writing, and that you'll keep pushing forward. Good luck and happy writing~! C:

I'm probably just gonna find someone who knows how to grammar. I know legit zero anything about it so I can't do much except finding an editor who can help me.

Haha, honestly fair. I wish I had a personal editor too, it'd certainly save me time and stress. I hope you can find an editor who's a good fit for you, and that you'll keep at it. c:

I completly get you Red. I always feel like my story aren't good enough. Are my emotional stories emotional enough. Is my slize of life to bland, is my sex to short.
Hope you solve it out. Wish I could give you some tips but I struggle myself

I feel the same way about my artwork a lot of the time.
In a similar vein, I know that my skills with composition, shading, and making actual scenes are not good. All I can really do reliably are pin-ups.

Grammar can be worked on using programs like Grammarly and just reading things out loud to make sure it sounds good. In the end the "rules" of language are just suggestions, as long as the material is understandable, and I can say I've never had any issue understanding your work, if I did, then I would have never ready your work and never started following you.

Dude, I get the same feeling. You have a wonderful style that I like to read. I would say absolutely continue, but if you're not happy with what you're writing, then yeah, getting with an editor really boosted my confidence and really made me feel more comfortable writing. I'd hate to see you stop, when you legit write some fun and sexy stuff.

Your stories are great regardless of the grammar just power through that imposter syndrome and keep writing
