"going into prophylactic shock"
Someone pointed me towards this video at a party a couple of weeks ago (Yeah, I had my iPhone out at a party. So what?) and I just got around to watching it, and I have to confess to occasionally feeling just like this during book interviews. Just, you know, like, maybe if I keep smiling and let my mouth run on autopilot, no one will ever know the sad, dark truth about me, whatever that is.*
*I kid, I kid, I’m awesome 100% of the time.
P.S. I checked and the book is real

I’ve often wondered how I’d react to being interviewed. Nerves, probably, resulting in rambling. I’ve spent so much of my adult life asking the questions, although never in front of a camera. I’d never thought of a costume though – that might actually help.
For you, I would suggest steampunk aviator goggles and some kind of vest with propellors and gauges embedded in the chest.
That is actually very funny. (ps — did you get my email?)
