Since the new book is a short book, I’m skipping around from section to section as I write. Thing is, I find myself obsessed with the introduction. part of it is even pretty good (which is really early for this to be happening) but I am at once captivated by the need to work on it and at the same time haunted by the fact that whatever I write will be invalid by the time I finish the rest of the book.
This must be what they mean by neurosis.
