Drafting up this next scene for the cyberpunk book, and wondering if I've overdone it on the lore & worldbuilding. I tried to explain the plot to someone (who isn't a SFF fan) irl, and they just stared blankly at me for 15 minutes. 😅

Today's question: What's your biggest obstacle to getting time to write? Is it the allure of doomscrolling, your adorable kid/cat/partner, a busy job? Or your own brain? (hi, it me)
