postscript

Performance anxiety. I hate second guessing. It doesn’t matter how much I edit or polish, there’s always the five stages of post- posting stress.

Stage 1: perfect! (hits publish button)
Stage 2, half an hour later: I bet I forgot something. Did I forget something?
Stage 3: geeeeze, what was I thinking?
Stage 4: ARG, why did I post?
Stage 5: Oh, forget it. On to the next fic.
