I was acutely aware that I was way too young to be playing such game...

When a story doesn't click for you or when the writing jars, do you take a moment to wonder why? What is the thought behind this? What are the steps, the processes, the logic? Why are some things good and some things great? Is there a science behind it, and if there is, what is it?
