Rockstar breakdown. I know it. I had my own. So hard. It feels like an instance of synchronicity.

Magazine--she has published 2 of my essays) and I love it! What a treat to read such an authentic expression of the roller-coaster ride that the life of an artist/creative person can be. My memoir-in-progress is looking for an agent right now (book proposal out to several)and some days I feel like a crazy person myself, balancing the work of continuing to draft more chapters with the insanity of the pre-marketing process that has to happen with nonfiction. Reading about and watching the end stages of production of your book is so exciting and fascinating! Can't wait to read the book! But take care of yourself... I have fibromyalgia, which feels a bit like what you described, and I've been pushing myself for 57 years.... even started Pilates this summer! So... drink lots of water and get some rest!
