Another pot chimes in...

But great news! You're not working on 14 things. You're only working on one: the one that needs to go out this week. Just one thing. When that's done, you pick another. Just one. Set a deadline for it and finish. Send it. Pick the next.

Lather. Rinse. Repeat.

I think I may have mentioned this earlier but fix is and send it. It isn't as painful as you think.

Pot...kettle...

Also, I'm refraining from the game, as I fear I will fail without Google, and then I'm cheating.

But it’s almost forgotten It’s been pulled away.

(I admit to cheating and using google , but man, I forgot how much I liked that song.)

Methinks that perhaps you are being a bit harsh on yourself which in and of itself is enough to cause a bit of a panic. Though it is necessary to edit past/present writings and on some level necessary to inventory and categorize said writings, it would seem that it is also important to remember to remind oneself of the successful portions of those writings which don’t need editing. Hence, though you see the editing that needs to be done and have the potential to be overwhelmed by the sheer magnitude of it (hence the panic attack), this is offset by the realization that all of those writings contain portions that can be deemed to be not only excellent reading but success in and of themselves.

I’d play the music game but my taste in music is just too weird :P
