Distract Me. I like it.

Recently there has been a lot of quasi-scientific chatter about how writers have a kind of Attention Deficit Disorder and so can’t easily filter out distracting, ‘irrelevant’ stimuli. Of course it is this distracting clutter that is the building material for the construction of metaphor. One man’s garbage is another man’s treasure. (Or people wouldn’t remarry.)
