I write about five thousand words a day, when working on a book, about three thousand a day if I'm writing a short story. I take long periods off between projects, when I read a lot, garden, and think about the next book or stories.

  • -- Eric Brown 埃里克·布朗

当我写一本书的时候，我每天大约写五千字，如果我在写短篇小说，我每天大约写三千字。我在项目之间会有很长一段时间的休息，当我读很多书，整理花园，思考下一本书或故事的时候。

当我要开始写一本书的时候，我会考虑两件事。首先，故事本身必须有一个戏剧性的弧线，让我和读者从头到尾都能读懂。其次，故事必须贯穿更大的主题，才能照亮主题的世界。
