Freaking Out about Stupid Crap

[jetpack_monkey_ljarchive]

So that book on obscure horror that I contributed to is out now. Which is great, really. My essay is on the film Alucarda and, since the essays are arranged alphabetically by film title, it comes up first. Again, no problem.

Except that the book has a "Look Inside" preview. And the preview includes my essay, because of its early placement. And I'm glancing over it and I'm seeing every stupid awkward turn of phrase. I suddenly feel responsible for anybody who doesn't pick up the book based on the preview.

I am trying to take a breath and relax, but geez louise, pressure, man.

Gah.

Oh, dear... *hugs* At least you know how dumb it is. (Wish that made it instantly better!)
