The advice would be the same for any kind of fiction. Keep writing, and keep sending things out, not to friends and relatives, but to people who have the power to buy. A lot of additional, useful tips could be added, but this is fundamental.

  • -- Fred Saberhagen 弗雷德·萨卜哈根

对于任何类型的小说,这个建议都是一样的。继续写信,继续寄东西,不是寄给朋友和亲戚,而是寄给那些有能力买东西的人。可以添加许多额外的、有用的技巧,但这是基本的。
