KEEP EXPLORING
沿着这个主题，再读几句。
Again, we turn down most books that have been self-published unless they have a special track record. We have taken a small number on, however, and sold them to major publishers for a nice sum. But that is an exception to the rule.
再一次，我们拒绝大多数自助出版的书籍，除非它们有特殊的记录。然而，我们只接受了一小部分，并以不错的价格卖给了主要出版商。但这是一个例外。
A lot of people who don't write for kids think it's easy, because they think kids aren't as smart as they are, or that you have to dumb down what you would normally write for kids. But I think you have to work harder when you write for kids, to make sure every word is right, that it's there for the right reason.
很多不为孩子们写作的人认为这很简单，因为他们认为孩子们没有他们那么聪明，或者你必须简化你通常为孩子们写的东西。但我认为，当你为孩子们写作时，你必须更加努力，确保每一个字都是正确的，都是为了正确的理由而写的。
Lots of people want to ride with you in the limo, but what you want is someone who will take the bus with you when the limo breaks down.
很多人想和你一起坐豪华轿车，但你想要的是当豪华轿车抛锚时，有人愿意和你一起乘公共汽车。
I write in a pretty straightforward way. I kind of sit down at page one and start writing.
我写的很直接。我坐在第一页开始写作。
I think it was probably down to the fact that we weren't together personally as a band. We weren't pulling in the same direction. I always feel if you're having a good time in the studio it actually comes across on the tape and that was a bit of a miserable album for us.
我想这可能是因为我们个人作为一个乐队没有在一起。我们没有往同一个方向拉。我总觉得如果你在录音室里玩得很开心，你会在磁带上看到，这对我们来说是一个很糟糕的专辑。
She found me intolerable. But she got to know me, and I wore her down.
她觉得我难以忍受。但她逐渐了解了我，我让她筋疲力尽。
