I feel like I struggle most with writing characters' thoughts/narration/POVs. Like, I do fine with describing action, writing dialogue, plotting, etc. but writing a character, for example, come to an internal realization without just flat out saying "THIS IS HAPPENING" is a struggle.
I also tend to write a POV that's kind of third person limited but also third person objective, in that the POV closely follows the character but doesn't delve into their thoughts that much (which can also be tricky when the character I'm writing is an unreliable narrator)? I dunno. I feel like that's a major flaw of mine and it's a constant battle to overcome it. People don't really seem to mind it but I did get a comment once from someone that my writing seemed detached/cold because of it.
