I still have a deep passion for writing, but can't convince myself to put words on a page anymore

Well, you know your writing best. If no-one else has seen it, then you have to depend on your own gut and wisdom. If you think it's bad, and you don't want to put in the work to make it better - then maybe you're on the correct path - just stop writing.

At the end of the day, we are what we do. If you're a writer you'll keep writing, if you're not - you'll find something else. As harsh as it may sound; probably no-one will bemoan an individual who gives up on their book.

If you're heart isn't in it, you're wasting your time - and time is something we don't get much of. You're probably better off finding another thing that does motivate you.
