Writing Magic Nobody Knows

More From Zora Neale Hurston

Men are four; he who knows and knows not that he knows. he is asleep; wake him. he who knows not and knows not that he knows not. he is a fool; shun him. he who knows not and knows that he knows not. he is a child; teach him. he who knows and knows that he knows. he is a king; follow him. the heights by great men reached and kept were not attained by sudden flight, but they, while their companions slept, were toiling upward in the night.
Kings Children Night
There are four types of men in this world: 1. the man who knows, and knows that he knows; he is wise, so consult him. 2. the man who knows, but doesn't know that he knows; help him not forget what he knows. 3. the man who knows not, and knows that he knows not; teach him. 4. finally, there is the man who knows not but pretends that he knows; he is a fool, so avoid him.

And that's what i don't like about magic, captain. 'cos it's *magic*. you can't ask questions, it's magic. it doesn't explain anything, it's magic. you don't know where it comes from, it's magic! that's what i don't like about magic, it does everything by magic!

There is some confusion as to what magic actually is. i think this can be cleared up if you just look at the very earliest descriptions of magic. magic in its earliest form is often referred to as “the art”. i believe this is completely literal. i believe that magic is art and that art, whether it be writing, music, sculpture, or any other form is literally magic.
Art Believe Writing
I have a hard time writing. most writers have a hard time writing. i have a harder time than most because i'm lazier than most. [...] the other problem i have is fear of writing. the act of writing puts you in confrontation with yourself, which is why i think writers assiduously avoid writing. [...] not writing is more of a psychological problem than a writing problem. all the time i'm not writing i feel like a criminal. [...] it's horrible to feel felonious every second of the day. especially when it goes on for years. it's much more relaxing actually to work.
Writing Hard Times Thinking
Do you hate me because i have magic?" "of course not." "do you love me despite my magic?" he thought a minute. "no. i love everything about you, and your magic is part of you. that was how i got past the confessor's magic. if i had loved you despite your power, i wouldn't have been accepting you for who you are. your magic would have destroyed me.
