The writing aspect does exist somewhere.

Okay. First off, I need to get this off my chest. I live in a world of giving up and not trying. If you write and improve and do it seriously, with the plotting/pantsing, editing, rewriting, and the whole nine yards, if someone turns you down, it doesn't make you a bad writer.

I started writing at the age of the nine and...well, duh...it was not that good, to say nicely. Just like your first piece will not be terrific unless you have some magical gene or talent or something. Just like you won't score the winning shot of a NBA game unless you have epic beginner's luck.

Also, for the love of every piece of writing out there, do not compare yourself to anyone but your older pieces. Imagine comparing Beethoven to Pitbull. What do you think will happen? Sheer opposites and people will look at you like "What? Isn't that a movie?" (however, the composer is the one in the example).

You remember that good old phrase? "You are unique." Well, miss anti-Mary Sue (or anti-mister Typical Peter), so are you! (hah. that rhymed) So, when you write your story of goblins and dinos or monsters or paranormal or creepy pasta or romance or syfy or WHATEVER your heart pleases, don't think "this person is better than I am" because your writing is the best YOU can do, so it doesn't matter if the person next to you can write good romance! Maybe you're awesome at horror and that person can only write "She died from the axe murder. People cried and screamed. THE END!:D" I mean, that's about all I can do. So keep on doing what you do best which is writing YOUR stuff! Strut your stuff! You are you. So, for the love of literature, please never down yourself because you think you're not good enough.

If you enjoy writing then, please, by all means, write! You only  become better through practice. And if writing is only a hobby for you, great! You don't need to write just to give your pieces out to the public. They're as private or out there as you want them, so do what you love.

And also, goodness, how many authors have been published the FIRST manuscript they send in? Keep trying with whatever you do, whether it's writing or anything else you love to do.
