It's an unusual feeling, knowing that you've peaked as an artist but still creating art. The knowledge that you will never match that one perfect piece, and yet the drive to continue anyway.
Not out of hope you'll somehow match it, or even more preposterously beat it, but out of the knowledge that you can't account for taste, and that maybe a lesser work can still have an impact on someone when they need it.
Thus, you keep creating, no matter what.
(That said, if you don't think 'Williams Versus Williams, 2013' is my best drabble, you're just plain wrong.)
