"Georgia Pritchett is a singularly hilarious person. Her book is a delightful and perfect reflection of her. Its tenderness sneaks up on you and really packs a punch. What a magnificent read!"—Julia Louis Dreyfus

Jenny Lawson meets Nora Ephron in this joyful memoir-in-vignettes on living—and thriving—with anxiety from a multiple Emmy Award-winning comedy writer whose credits include Succession and Veep.

When Georgia Pritchett found herself lost for words—a bit of a predicament for a comedy writer—she turned to a therapist, who suggested she try writing down some of the things that worried her. But instead of a grocery list of concerns, Georgia wrote this book.

A natural born worrywart, Georgia's life has been defined by her quirky anxiety. During childhood, she was agitated about the monsters under her bed (Were they comfy enough?). Going into labor, she fretted about making a fuss ("Sorry to...

Wilf the Mighty Worrier--Battles a Pirate

Thu, 16 Nov 2006 08:35:42 +0200

Things Wilf was worried about before:
1. Lion dentists.
2. Creepy crawlies wearing wigs.
3. Marmite.
Things Wilf is worried about now:
4. The most evil man in the world.
5. Actually, anyone named Alan.
6. Alan deciding to become a pirate and destroy the world.
Alan is Wilf's self-styled evil lunatic next-door-neighbor. He has a grumpy robot sidekick and a silent, right-hand-dog, Kevin Phillips. All in all, he is kind of ridiculous. But when Alan decides that pirating is an excellent way to destroy the world, Wilf knows he will have to overcome his fear of parrots and walking the plank to stop him . . .

Wilf the Mighty Worrier--Saves the World

Mon, 16 Nov 2015 08:35:41 +0200

Wilf worries quite a lot. About quite a lot of things. Well, if we're being totally honest, he worries about almost everything. Stuffed animals for instance. And peanut butter makes him nervous, too. And, as for those awful insects that have waggly feeler thingies instead of eyes? Well, they're something he can't even bear to think about.

So, when the most evil man in the world (named Alan) moves in next door one day, Wilf is understandably rather alarmed. Especially after he learns that Alan is a self-styled Evil Lunatic, with his own grumpy robot sidekick to complete the package. Wilf's only ally in his desperate struggle to put a stop to Alan's plan to destroy the world is his sticky little sister, Dot. Can Wilf stop worrying for long enough to save the world?
