We all get tired and you are right if you want to take a break and focus on other things. It is true that a comment, criticism is needed for writers. Good or bad, both are fine and in both cases stories will be remembered even if they forget the writer,
This is really good and if you write one per month you have a book at the end of the year, one with stories one doesn't easily forget

Enjoy the weekend and greetings to to your son!
