You're not alone. I wrote like a mad woman in high school and college. Then it's become very sporatic. A few years ago I managed to write a couple of novels but they aren't very good. I'm back in a slump now. I can't seem to get my rhythm back. I don't, however, delete anything, because I realize what seems terrible to me when I'm in a slump may seem not so bad when I'm feeling better about things. I made the huge mistake of destroying all my writings when I was a teenager and I regret it very much now...I would have like to reread them now. I think the main thing is to decide if this is something you really want to do, and, if it is, make time for it, find a support group, and make it a regular part of your day. Don't evaluate. Don't delete. Just write persistently. Then find someone you trust to read it and you may be surprised to find it isn't as bad as you thought (we are often our own worst critics). I think that's the difference between a real writer and a want-a-be (I'm the latter). And don't heistitate to come on the forum and talk about what you're going through. It's a great place for a safe vent. :)
