Many Years Ago, I Really

I Don't Deal At All Well With The Relative Amount Of Stuff I Have To Face Already.

I Suppose That Anyone Who Does Any Kind Of Creative Work Some Time In Their Life - Especially As You Grow Into Middle Age! - You Come To A Time Where You Really Question More And More Frequently, Whether You Have Anything Else To Offer. And At Its Worst, You Feel Utterly Bereft Of Whatever Creative Force It Takes To Do That Work.

When I Do Work, I Feel The Same Sort Of Urgency As I Ever Did. If I Didn't Feel That, I Don't Think I Would Wish To Be Doing It. I Wouldn't Really See The Point.

At A Certain Age It Just Became Apparent To Me That This Was Probably The Work That I Would Have To Do.

There's Nothing Worse Than Finding Yourself In A Situation, A Very Demanding Piece Of Work, And Knowing That You're Not A True Ally To The Person Who's In Charge Of All That.
