We all have our skill ceilings. Don't despair. Just make sure you are operating at your limits and true to your authentic self. At the very least you will be writing for yourself.
Not yet, thankfully

Talent isn't important stupid.
Walking around thinking "Hurr durr I'm so untalented" isn't practicing your prose or figure drawing or duck fucking.
Talent is just another word for "Natural aptitude" and even a kid with a "Natural aptitude" for fucking ducks or whatever poxy pursuit you fill your worthless time with, isn't gonna become a major league duck fucker without hundreds and thousands of hours of practice, after which the level of aptitude developed dwarfs the small advantage of "talent".
PRACTICE You toothless depressive debt-ridden cretin.
PRACTICE!

im sorry
I already knew that. I'm just practicing now, because I don't think writing is something I could ever stop doing.

I realize every day. My most recent realization was just a moment ago, when i decided to transcribe my writings from my phone to paper. What is even the point?

Love these kind of posts man
What is it with /lit/ and 4chan in general and valuing natural aptitude/potential to do well over actual, comprehensive, practice-incurred ability

everyone is eager to find a reasonable explanation for their failures without looking inward. it is so much easier to say "well, i never really had a chance to begin with" than to say "i could have been so great"
