What Kinda of Writer Am I

I am more noble than you? And you are more noble than me?
All writers have a special talents of writing their novels/poetry; the way they make the words "flow", great at writing character development stories, awesome at writing romance and action sequences. Me? I'm still searching for my writing talent.
I started writing probably somewhere between the end of middle school and the beginning of high school. Classmates who often read my work always said "reading this was like watching an anime". I was very proud of that. Then I had to go and learn how to be a better writer, reading on what genre is most popular to read, how to write the perfect hit, etc. and I'm afraid I lost my touch.
I would be done with a 20-something chapter novel in weeks. Weeks. Now I'm struggling to finish the second or third chapter and it's been several months since I've touched it. I could blame my job or the downs (and sometimes ups) in my life. You'd think negativity would be the right motivation to get me going so that I can get it published so I can quit my job, get some extra cash, and move out to live in my own place but it does the exact opposite. Or maybe I have Togashism (for mysterious reason it's no longer on the net but "Togashism" is named after Yoshihiro Togashi, creator of Yu Yu Hakusho and Hunter x Hunter, who would disappear for months after finishing one volume of his work then reappear with another completed volume).
I don't know what I'm good at yet. Maybe I'll find out somewhere in the near future.
And I'll end this journal with a link. A friend needs help getting his first job...or I think that's what he told me but the page explains it all. http://www.gofundme.com/61u8vg
