Pull a Hemingway

(v.) To pull a Hemingway is when a very talented person, usually in the written or visual arts, commits suicide during/after or previous to his or her success, for no understandably reason whatsoever.

Artist one: "Have you seen Anthony lately? His Acrylic painting "Le Onde", just won the nationals."

Artist two: "Nah, he's been moping around his apartment depressed about God knows what."

Artist one: " Jeez, I sure hope he doesn't pull a Hemingway."
