The Writer comes up against the misconception that he's needed for only his manual abillity to translate other people's experiences into words. The non writer illusion is 'I'm just as good, I have as much to say, more to say, but I'm missing a few technical details.'
-- Ernest Van Den Haag

I Forgot to Forget

 

What I forgot to do yesterday in painting was to forget that I was painting the corner of a room with a lamp, ladder, and blanket. I missed the crooked nature of the upper right part of the ladder. I misaligned a couple of proportions. If I had remembered to forget, then I would have painted it all as I saw it, and not painted part of it as I thought it was. Big difference...

Tonight, I'll swing into our kitchen and paint that, I think. Hopefully, I'll remember that it's not a kitchen.
