I don't know whether it really helps to know about other people's anxieties, but Katy's post reminded me of times in my life when I've felt "out of it". I hope your health improves so you can get out to a bookshop again. It must be really frustrating not to be able to do that. Glad you still have plenty to read, though. And do keep writing. You are good!
I really enjoy your writing here, Courtenay.
Your feelings about floating on a cloud, looking down, reminded me of this heartfelt piece by Katy Wheatley, which I read a couple of days ago.

Thank you Wendy! I'll take a look too! :)
