Or Maybe And After All

Okay, so I've only just posted, but I've thought of one thing that does stimulate me both mentally and emotionally.

Stories. Particularly in written form, so I can consider the author's style and turn on the spelling radar while I think about the themes of the book and make a connection with the characters.

However, it doesn't seem to work when I try to write stories. If I try to plan something, the emotions click off and it stops being rewarding. If I don't plan something, it becomes unintelligible.

It does work with editing, though... I have only limited experience in the area, but I like to help people work through their stories. I have to be mentally active in order to be critical, and am emotionally active because it's a story! Characters and emotions!

So maybe there's some hope for me after all.

If there's no hope for you, the rest of us are truly doomed!
