Idk, I feel like I've been neglecting the site. I used to be so active on the site and now I feel like I've betrayed you all. I've lost the spark of drawing, I see it more as a task now...which I don't know why I think that now. I miss it when I was more excited to respond where it came almost instantaneous, and now I actually have to think about it. I think I need to work on my improvisation...

You're missing that inspiration. That key element that keeps me driven. That excitement that has me respond on the spot. Almost. Don't worry it'll come to you eventually. That or music, music helps also.
I constantly listen to music when I draw.

It's not necessarily a bad thing that you want to put planning and time into your drawings rather than "OH THERE'S A THREAD I'LL HAVE A PICTURE DONE IN 10 MINUTES". Drawing is difficult, I don't blame you for seeing it as a chore. You don't have to enjoy the process of drawing, but what makes it all worth it is when you finish your picture and it's something that you're proud of. You haven't really lost anything, you probably just have higher expectations of your own drawings now and you're more hesitant to scribble stuff down.
Or maybe you're just lazy like me.

Ok I might of said that wrong.
Maybe its a case of artist block. Or maybe you don't feel like what you're drawing is fit to your standards so that's whats preventing you from drawing in the first place?
Don't make it feel like drawing is a hassle. Cause that will keep you from drawing decent pictures or at all. If you start to feel that inside then you won't have that inspiration to draw.
Focus on what you're drawing. Let it be fun for you like adding minor details and such. Not only does it make a drawing look better you'll have fun doing it. You might even be likely to draw more. You just might even get the urge to open MsPaint up and start drawing doodles and random pictures.
There's nothing wrong with thinking out something before you draw it. I encourage it, and if you find yourself thinking in a loop just give it time and work your way to the finish step by step. Making modifications along the way if you get stuck.
Its sorta like trial and error. IMO.
I'm saying this from what I've done and its worked well for me.
But whats worked for me might not work for everyone else. So opinions vary.
