I probably have less revision than those who have that wonderful rush of story to tell - you know, I can't wait to tell you what happened the other day. It comes tumbling out and maybe then they go back and refine. I kind of envy that way of working, but I just have never done it.

-- Amy Hempel 米·亨佩尔

我可能比那些急着讲故事的人复习得少——你知道，我迫不及待地想告诉你那天发生了什么。它会滚出来，然后他们可能会回去提炼。我有点羡慕那种工作方式，但我从来没有做过。
