“Sometimes all that saves me is being willing to make mistakes. There are projects that strike me as so beautiful, important, complicated, or just plain big, that they convince me of my own inadequacy. This awful state of reverence leads to paralyzing brain freeze. At times like that the only way out is for me to decide, 'To hell with it. I can't do it right, so I'll do it wrong. I can't do it well, but I can do it badly.' Sometimes, with luck, while I'm sweating to do it wrong, I stumble on a right way.” WayWellsI CanImportantSometimesStatesBigsBeautifulCan DoMy OwnMistakeBrainHellWillingProjectsLuckComplicatedStrikesAwfulConvinceMaking MistakesReverenceRight WayFreezeI Can Do ItSave MeInadequacySweating Author:Katherine Dunn
