Is it normal to find game programming not fun?

I've read that many other people enjoy programming, but I don't. I get fun when I do something new like make a chess AI / implement a pathfinding algorithm, but the actual game development feels boring and I have to force myself to do it.

    Well I never did programming. I did however do 3D animation and I did horribly.
