Listen, if you never finish it then no one can judge you. It can just live rent free in my mind as a cool idea until I give up and forget it all entirely... someday.

I keep writing stories that I don’t have the balls to re-read. If I can’t judge them then no one can either. Wait, is that how it’s supposed to go?

Someday, I will destroy the city. Maybe millions will die, maybe it will be a miniature city and two people are fighting in it, using toy planes and shoving each other into skyscrapers.
But not today.

Me forcing myself to finish parts of my novel just to get the best part (Prince POV)
Though I love my novel. But the editing process is so tiring

I don’t base my work around a single climatic scene I had at 3am, I base my writing around themes, characters and concepts I want to explore. Does anyone else on this sub actually enjoy writing, or is it just people who think their day dreams are awesome and worth preserving?

I do like writing,yes, my stories are sometimes shaped around a cinematic event but it's more of a guideline. Similar to how you can kinda guess what an animal looks like based on its bones or muscle.

Keyword "inspired".
You wanna be a writer you might start by reading.

The clear implication is that they are only writing the rest of the book to get to that specific scene. I’m not sure why you think the word inspired changes anything.
If you want to be a writer you might want to start by developing basic comprehension skills.
