I do. The stages are:
1, The beginner. - Flashes of interest, flashes of greatness, but still stumbling over his/her feet.
2. Journeyman - Has learned the craft, still full of ideas.
3. the "Fat Elvis" - Can still produce a great work, but has run low on ambition, and is coasting.
4. "Dead Elvis" - Throwing words together, and raking in the paychecks from former greatness.
You find the same thing in music, as well.
