    I was watching a video about the writing behind a television show and it made me think of a possible paradox that I would like to know (1) classifies as a paradox, and (2) if it is already a theory someone has formulated:

    If you do something "right" - organically - without conscious consideration (ie writing a story in the structure of the Campbell-ian story circle without knowing about Campbell's postulate) only to find out what you're doing has been given a name and you do it again after this revelation, is the new thing still organic (ie knowingly writing a story fitting the story circle)?

    And by proxy wouldn't there be a paradox in and of the paradox, as once you understand what the paradox entails then it would meet its own parameters; hence would act of knowing about the paradox denote the validity of the paradox?
