    ATEOTT 42 Transcript EPISODE 42 [INTRODUCTION] [00:00:02] SP: I just got right to the end. I was so terrified. Of course, I was clueless. I had no self-awareness. All I was doing was feeling the emotion. I was just so terrified of actually finishing it, and then putting it out there for people to judge, even though nobody would give a shit, or even know that I'd written or anything. In my mind, it was a big deal. I just, like what they say in psychology, when you act out, you do something. I'm not going to say what it was, but it was enough that blew up my marriage and blew up the rest of what a regular life I had at that point. It forced me to ask myself, why am I doing this? Am I just crazy? Why do I keep saving money, taking two years writing a book; nobody wants it. Nobody buys it. I can't get it published. Everybody thinks I'm an idiot. My family's in utter distress over, “Poor Steve. He's going down the tubes.” I had to ask myself over and over, “Really, why am I doing this?” It's not for the money, because I'm not making any money. It's not for the recognition, because I'm not getting any recognition. I didn't see anything on the horizon, either. It wasn't like I thought, “Oh, I'm just this close and I'll be over the hump.” The answer that I came up with is, I just can't do anything else.
