OMG, you are literally the answer to a prayer I prayed just this morning! "Your streak continues until you choose to stop once and for all. That’s it." I needed so desperately to hear this. I feel ike your story describes my own life to a tee, with a lot fewer stories, but I'm on the same rugged path (305 published in 4 months). When people applaud me or pat me on the back, I have mixed feeling, because I know it's actually an addiction and this helps me understand precisely how to address it. I HONESTLY appreciate this so much. Thank you for sharing :-)
