You should never come to terms with it but always come to terms with the fact that you can always improve and become better. Scour your work with a critical eye, get a second opinion from another writer, maybe pay for a professional reading, submit to competitions, free or paid, contact agents, self-publish, never give up never surrender

There's literally no excuses but sometimes motivation can be hard to come by. For me I need ignorant trap rap to pump me up but I also take motivation from philosophy and stories of other people's successes. Different strokes for different folks, but you gotta press on my guy

There's no way your writing would be as bad as it was a week ago if you continue to re-draft, a year ago if you continue to improve, a decade ago if you kept yourself busy and productive.

Any other britbongs know this feel? Also they're not the greatest books ever but I do get swept up in nostalgia whenever I revisit the books or movies. Just good warm fun. I can enjoy both Harry Potter and Joyce or Shakespeare. It doesn't have to be one or the other if you enjoy both.
