Welcome to the companion clubs of “I don’t know what to write” and “if I write will anyone read it?” Membership is rarely free since it will cost you time, brain power, and way too much self contemplation.

Agree with all of this. A big part of it for me is believing that every single time I write, I get better. Even if I can't see how, writing is always better than not writing.
You. Are. Not. Alone.

Excellent point. For example, it may have been your genetic inheritance that was determinative in this case.
