Some writers are curiously unmusical. I don't get it. I don't get them. For me, music is essential. I always have music on when I'm doing well. Writing and music are two different mediums, but musical phrases can give you sentences that you didn't think you ever had.

有些作家出奇地不懂音乐。我不明白。我不明白。对我来说,音乐是必不可少的。我做得好的时候总是放着音乐。写作和音乐是两种不同的媒介,但是音乐短语可以给你带来你从未想过的句子。
