Things just have their time then they are no longer ……..no different to a sandstone carving on a bridge. It decays with time, but archivists want to interfere, make a replica and put the original in a museum (lost things) ………..it would be better to keep the replica in the museum and let the original run its course.

I realize this is an old thread and probably nobody is paying attention to it. But I am intrigued by DAH’s statement “somebody does a great story and then, and then, alas where do they go? only one story , ever? for many it is like this…i remain curious and perhaps a bit perplexed by this phenomena.”

I have been grappling with this question for about a decade now, in regards to my own work as well as to others. And I think there is not one clear cut answer. But I do think that sometimes “life” just gets in the way: how to pay rent, how to take care of oneself, things that happen in one’s family, etc….I dont think it’s as simple as a person does some good work and then that’s it, theyre gone and not doing anything anymore. There are many many factors that get in the way. Anyway, I think about this all the time and have even started a blog about it over at http://remerge.tumblr.com/.

Imants, wow, put that in iambic pentameter and you might have something timeless! Or even a Haiku might not be entirely bad.
