I love writing, but due to my ADHD, I tend to start something, leave it, and start eighty other projects. Either that, or I get a new idea, delete the entire book, and restart from scratch.

Hi!
I would suggest setting a goal for yourself.
If you have any friends who read your writing, maybe tell them your goals. Also try to send them chapters of what you write. They can help you edit and give you feedback.
These thing help my friend who loves to write.
I hope that this can help you.
Also, ignore the horrible bullies above this. You're most likely an amazing person and I wish you luck with your writing!

Write for yourself. Read all kinds of different genre's. All of my characters are little slices of my personality. I, too struggle with finishing stuff. I will lay it down and work on something else, then come back to it. The Doors to the imagination is always there. Sometimes its closed, i dont force it open. Other times it opens freely on its own. Still other times i will step up to it and rip the f*****g thing off its hinges and rush into the void. Either way its yours, cherish, nurture it. Breathe life into your work.

I try to go with the flow I know sometimes it is hard even I struggle with staying focused so something that helps is to just write down the basics and anything that comes to your mind, them I expand and go into detail and I will change some parts and add other parts. Also if you ever have an Idea I can totally help you 😊
