The cover for Pizza Boxes on the Floor. |
I did this instead of taking more photos of my wife's jewelry for her Etsy shop, Celtic Soul Jewelry and Pottery.
The result?
Yes, that is right. I feel great guilt for actually spending time working on my own business.
It is something that I have fought for years, this alarming tendency to feel guilt whenever I put my own concerns and needs before those of other people.
I used to blame it on my upbringing, but that is unfair to my family. After all, it is not like I haven't had twenty years plus to learn to become a selfish b******. The fact that I have not overcame the problem is probably a good indication that it is actually something deep inside me that is broken, something that no amount of familial programming hardly affected at all.
I sometimes wonder if other writers feel this way.
Probably not. After all, most writers are much more sane than I am.
