Trying to stay focused while writing this piece for Uncanny Mag and it's just so hard. The fact that I like parts of it only makes it worse because I don't want to fuck up the parts that I like by finishing it with more, less good words. But I need to get it done. I need to write an original piece of short fiction ffs, but there are so many parts that are making me hmm skeptically and I don't know if it's just writerly self-loathing or something deeper.
