When creative collaborations lose momentum without clear closure

My friend and I have been working on a zine together for over a year but we both keep getting distracted by other projects and neither of us wants to admit that maybe we're just not that committed to finishing this thing. We keep scheduling work sessions that turn into social visits and avoiding the conversation about whether we actually want to complete it.

What we've seen

Two friends remain attached to a shared creative project neither feels truly motivated to complete, but ending it feels like acknowledging failure or diminished connection.
