I've never lost my interest in Tugs, even though I've none these last twelve years and darned few the twelve years before those. But what has been a problem for me has been a lack of interest (or at least the energy) to write about TUGs. Also a lack of time in some cases -where today for example i'm having to waste time and energy stamping out a flame war involving a member named Mirae (who wants me to delete all of her posts - all 200+ of them).
So I can definitely understand the problem of no motivation. In my case at least though, a lack of a love fo tugs isn't the problem. But also too, I also have many other interests that I also like to spend time on that have nothing to do with TUGs. Plus I work full time. That's a problem many of us have had to deal with, and sadly I'm not alone. Many of my favorite writers here (some of whom have posted here ahead of me) are having similar motivational problems. It happens. It even feels shameful to some of us personally (I for one) but it shouldn't. We're only human, and besides there's more to life than TUGs.
Writing can be draining. Hopefully though the problem is only temporary, as i'm sure it is in my case.
Just rest up and enjoy life, Putasockinit 2. That's all anyone can ask of anyone.
(I hope that ramble wasn't
too incoherent.)

Dare to be different... and make a difference.
