I'm plenty motivated to write and to perfect my writing. I'm obsessive from chapter to chapter, always thinking about finishing the next one until a book is complete.
Where I've lost all motivation is on the promotion end of things. I know that's an unhealthy attitude, but I really don't care anymore. All I care about is my next story, and the one after that. Who reads them, seems irrelevant.
I'm not sure why this happened, but I think it's a combination of having limited time to devote to the craft and having such slim hopes of developing a wide readership, even slimmer now, with my piss-poor attitude.
