Ah. I saved it in my quotefile.

He said that having started many more things than you finish is a natural state for anyone who is actually engaged in doing a lot of creative work. He said that those unfinished projects were part of an ecosystem, and served a purpose; they were the nurse logs on the forest floor. Having them is not failure; having them is part of how the natural process works.

When he told me this, it felt like a huge iron spike had been taken out of my heart, or something.
