Because I wrote a book called *Steal Like an Artist*, some people think I’m really interested in plagiarism. Actually, I’m much more interested in *forgery*.
“Plagiarism is the flip side of forgery,” wrote Andrew Potter in *The Authenticity Hoax*. “Forgers pass off their own work as that of someone else, while plagiarists pass off the work of others as their own.”
In other words: Plagiarism is taking credit for someone else’s work. Forgery is giving someone else credit for work you create.
The difference is you *doing the work*.

The older I get, the more I realize how valuable it is to let go of the anchors holding you back.
When someone makes a mistake, forgive them. When someone wrongs you, move on. When someone slights you, let it go. When someone tells you they didn’t mean it, believe them. When someone tries to pull you down, let them go.
Moving forward helps a lot and doesn’t cost a thing.

See all these new folk getting all excited about a @lisamelton boost, and I’m like, bah!
I was there when she came into being! I was amongst her first boosts!
Take that newbies 😂
(On a more serious note, @lisamelton is now the world turtle on which #Fediverse’s elephants stand :) )
