Interesting. When I think about difficulty and the creative process, I juxtapose Leonard Cohen with Roger Miller. Leonard Cohen was never finished. He would take years to finish a song, and even then continue to change and tweak it. Whereas Roger Miller would just start singing and the lines would come to him. They both wrote exceptional lyrics.
Poe was mathematical in his approach. That always sounded really difficult to me.
I think I am still trying to figure out what the line is of how difficult it should be for me. . .
