@OrdinaryAuthor2 Emotionally draining to WRITE? No. It got frustrating sometimes when I couldn't word a sentence to my liking or when I'm writing and I really got a flow going but I had to be out the door like ten minutes ago. Or asleep ten minutes ago. I can not stress to you how many times I stayed up at night writing my stories. All the late hours writing away while millions of people slept around me. And trust and believe I was tired myself, but I couldn't stop. Writing isn't emotionally draining, it's feeling like you have nothing to write that's draining. Writer's block closes off a part of me that I need. And I'm suffering from it, and I hate it more than anything. But that's just me. I can tell you how much I love to write, J.K. Rowling can tell you how much she loves to write, but it doesn't matter because, at the end of the day, it's what you want to do.
