I want to write but I think I’m afraid to right now. I have three ideas bouncing around in my head and I’m worried they’re all too similar thematically. I’m worried they’ll get mixed up if I try to write them all simultaneously, and I’m worried that the one based on my DnD PC is going to make my characterization of him in the game muddled. I’m worried that I only have vague ideas and no content behind them, that as soon as I get a few sentences down I’ll find that my brain isn’t cooperating and there’s nothing behind them but impressions and moods. And none of these worries are insubstantiated, they’re what’s happening right now.

I don’t know what to do. I should be packing to move, anyway.

Oof, I feel this. Especially the struggle with marinating in vagaries that disappear as soon as you try to put them on page. Possible helpful mantras: "don't let perfect be the enemy of good" + "you can't edit a blank page".
