Do you remember that old joke about the farmer? I’ve been thinking about it a lot lately.
Recently I was asked to write an article about Ashiatsu Oriental Bar Therapy for our local Natural Awakenings magazine.
At first I got excited, then I got nervous, then I got so excited I made myself sick. It was not pretty. Eventually I got over the nerves and got on with it. I finished the article this morning and though I think it’s pretty good I’m back to being nervous. The thought of attaching it to an email and pressing send has me in a cold sweat.
I am alternately nervous that they won’t publish it and then that they will. What if it’s not good enough? Rejection stings. But what if it is and they publish it? Pressure.
