Fear 5: yes, that is why I don't mountain bike

Fear 4: yes, only not the stage, the narthex

You lost me on 3, until you got to the part about all of them at once and now I am afraid also.

Fear 2: a person who reads a lot a lot might forget about something they have read, until after working a few (several) hours on an exciting new piece they think, hey this sounds kind of familiar, or so I have heard.

Fear 1: yes only mountain lions AND what a cute and terrifying photo AND "skittering back up onto my porch with a quickness" belongs on a quote of the week board which I will begin tomorrow. Cheers!

The Plagiarism Fear is seriously alive in my brain. I'm convinced that someone else is writing the exact same novel (and obviously doing it better) that I am right now, and all hell will . . . you know . . . once I try to get my story on the market.

Honestly, nothing but PROBLEMS 😂

In spite of having regular dreams where all my teeth fall out, I'm not too worried about falling while I run and damaging my teeth. I'm more afraid of tripping and breaking my arm - again.

That might be worse! Teeth can be replaced, but a broken arm would have me out of commission for work for a long time.
