FURTHER THOUGHT-FOOD FOR THEE
Self-Savagery no 34: Remember, artists are not brave. Not unless they pique the wrath of a militant faction of a religious group, or defy an oppressive regime. In these cases, one might suggest a certain aspect of Self-Savagery is at play; death brings immortality and is indeed an excellent career choice for the lazy.
Self-Savagery no 12: Embrace whimsy. Then give her up if you’re bored. But if you set out to write something important you’re already finished. It it will inevitably be only merely good, and lapped up by the half-brains out there. They’ll say it’s brave and the people will vote you a winner. Avoid this fate at all costs. Awards only mean something if they’re decided not by the millions but by a panel (preferably no more than one) of elitist snobs, preferably ar arbitrarily as possible. All bad decisions are made my groups, all inspired ones by individuals. the masses cannot be trusted. Do not turn your back on them.
