I'm afraid my writing will be worthless crap because I don't have enough life experience to draw upon.
Wanting to make something "real" puts me in a catch-22: If I write too much of what I know, it will just be depressing, pointless, and boring. Who the fuck would benefit from a story about Anon #56626 going about his normal life?
But, if I stray too far from the reality of my own experiences, I risk making yet another piece of cliche'd hyper-reality bullshit that misleads people about the world around them.

I guess the only way around this is to accept that I'm not going to write this generation's Illiad.

Ah... I remember the good old days of ic... people arguing about digital vs trad, photobashing, etc.
If only we knew how good we had it...
