You know the more I think about it, the more I realize that the reason I love RP so much is because I'm enjoying the process. I write for the characters and I'm writing without an end goal in mind. I'm not writing in order to have a story, but just to enjoy being immersed and being apart of this character's world.
Which, this is a huge issue for me that manifests itself across all artistic platforms. It's hard for me to produce anything without feeling like I should have some final goal in mind I'm trying to reach. I tend to work that way a lot. And I get incredibly frustrated and angry. Anytime I attempt to come in with a plan in mind I want to break everything around me. Be it writing, drawing, painting, film...anything. I hate plans, I hate trying to build a skeleton before I've even allowed myself to enjoy the simple act of making itself.
Goals in my work for me, it seems, make me produce things that are inorganic.
Anyway, RP is a good indicator I think for why a creative writing activity like this can be more enjoyable than others, and maybe it comes down to things just feeling like work.
But yeah, I think my problem is I approach things like RP with a more ambitious and less strict mindset whereas other writing? Not so much. It doesn't have the same playfulness and willingness to explore.
I'm rambling.

This Teacher Asked Her Students to Write to an Author. Kurt Vonnegut Wrote Back This
In 2006 Ms. Lockwood, an English teacher at Xavier High School, asked her students to write a letter to a famous author. She wanted them discuss the author’s work and ask for advice. Kurt Vonnegut (1922 – 2007) was the only one to write back and his advice is worth reading.
Dear Xavier High School, and Ms. Lockwood, and Messrs Perin, McFeely, Batten, Maurer and Congiusta:
I thank you for your friendly letters. You sure know how to cheer up a really old geezer (84) in his sunset years. I don’t make public appearances any more because I now resemble nothing so much as an iguana.
What I had to say to you, moreover, would not take long, to wit: Practice any art, music, singing, dancing, acting, drawing, painting, sculpting, poetry, fiction, essays, reportage, no matter how well or badly, not to get money and fame, but to experience becoming, to find out what’s inside you, to make your soul grow.
Seriously! I mean starting right now, do art and do it for the rest of your lives. Draw a funny or nice picture of Ms. Lockwood, and give it to her. Dance home after school, and sing in the shower and on and on. Make a face in your mashed potatoes. Pretend you’re Count Dracula.
Here’s an assignment for tonight, and I hope Ms. Lockwood will flunk you if you don’t do it: Write a six line poem, about anything, but rhymed. No fair tennis without a net. Make it as good as you possibly can. But don’t tell anybody what you’re doing. Don’t show it or recite it to anybody, not even your girlfriend or parents or whatever, or Ms. Lockwood. OK?
Tear it up into teeny-weeny pieces, and discard them into widely separated trash recepticals. You will find that you have already been gloriously rewarded for your poem. You have experienced becoming, learned a lot more about what’s inside you, and you have made your soul grow.
God bless you all!
Kurt Vonnegut
