A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS
写

这在职业生涯的开始几乎是偶然的,但是你写得越多,你就越能识别出这些小信号。

我既没有专家的帮助,也没有别人的建议。我没有学习写作方面的课程;直到大约一年前,我还从未读过有人给作家写建议的书。

正如我在文章结尾所写的,如果我们退后一步,面对汹涌的洪流,那么我们已经迈出了第一步,去想象我们可能想要做些什么。
If you write satire, the guilty pleasure these days is that there's just so much material about. On the other hand, if you have a family it can be depressing.

I write because I write - as anyone in the arts does. You're a painter because you feel you have no choice but to paint. You're a writer because this is what you do.
