When several things add up and pressure turns into stress, something not that great happens.

This week, taking on board the themes of previous weeks' podcast episodes, including Procrastination, Obsession and Self-Doubt, I reflect on my previous month's writing experiences and take myself down to a basic level to discover what's gone wrong inside my mind - then attempt to rebuild myself afterwards. 

I consider the ups - including Titan Books' TV Tie-In Firefly created by Joss Whedon, with novels written by James Lovegrove, and the downs - my dislike for I.T., and the effects it's had on me recently.

A self therapy-like episode, that hopefully speaks to you and your own writing situation. Finally, keeping in mind that vulnerability = strength.
