Like I said yesterday, heady week for me. This is Paul Simon on the Dick Cavett show, explaining how he writes - and how he gets 'unstuck', which means 'everywhere I went led me where I didn't want to be'. For some reason I always get teary listening to this, and it kicks my ass in gear to create when I'm not. Another man whose example I always have in mind. Here's the interview. So: it's ok to borrow, it's ok to leave an idea half done on the shelf, you can pick up the finishing bit years later if you're open. Taken last weekend - Rusty and Regina's amazing psychedilc throw-up lamps. Link to the post.
