I say something then spend days worrying whether it was the wrong thing (I then have conversations with them in my head where I apologise and try and explain why I said what I did....how sad is that!!). Then I see them and discover that they are completely fine and the only person that had a problem was me!!<BR/><BR/>Do you think that there is a 'feel guilty about nothing gene' which governs this weird behaviour?<BR/><BR/>C xCarolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12327016337976942530noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8148402657600219790.post-79571114891440449172007-06-06T21:22:00.000+07:002007-06-06T21:22:00.000+07:00Hi LisaI really can misconstrue things!

I feel a bit better today because a friend is back in Bangkok and the next event was going to include them, so I've got every reason to contact the other woman now... who thinks I'm a complete turnip, but hey ho, she's probably right!Jenny Beattiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00640209636605410939noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8148402657600219790.post-68577616732555416452007-06-05T05:28:00.000+07:002007-06-05T05:28:00.000+07:00I know exactly what you mean.

I deal with it using checklists, etc. Maybe it's a writerly trait, it seems to be common in the comments box! :)Angiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01338896212556894322noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8148402657600219790.post-75838511462509758802007-06-05T00:51:00.000+07:002007-06-05T00:51:00.000+07:00Gosh JJ - I do this all the time.

So if you come up with an anti-worrying method, then please instruct me too.<BR/><BR/>I am one big stress ball at the moment, but soooo looking forward to meeting you in 10 days.

I have in fact started my novel with my main character trying to work out why she feels so anxious.<BR/><BR/>I also worry too much that I may have offended people with stuff I say and write. If they are feeling a little upset or whatever - you've apologised. That's all you can do.<BR/><BR/>Hey - you should go and check out Cally's blog - her Dr. Who post. She has written a paragraph from a book at the end of the post about the 'editor' (obviously the 'demon' in your case) sitting on your shoulder as you write your first draft. It's fabulously reassuring.Helenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13315275929031953790noreply@blogger.com
