1.Writing is not a conscious choice. It is a need, as strong a need as any passion. Others are compelled to exercise daily. Writers share the beauty of the written word with others.
寫作不能有意識(shí)的選擇。是一種需要,一樣需要強(qiáng)烈的激情。別人也被逼著每天去鍛煉。作家和別人分享文字之美。
2. They are observant.
他們善于觀察
They see the beauty in things others don’t find interesting at all. For example, they are always on the lookout for an interesting photo to accompany their writing, or a new life lesson to write about.
他們能發(fā)現(xiàn)別人不覺得美德事物。比如說,他們總在給他們的寫作尋找一張有趣的照片或者一段新的生活經(jīng)歷去創(chuàng)作。
3. They are well-read.
他們擅長閱讀
By reading a variety of authors, they get a variety of ideas and writing styles. They might, inexplicably to you, be in the middle of many books or articles at once.
通過閱讀別人的作品,他們能獲得許多靈感,學(xué)到各種寫作技巧。也許他們不能給你解釋清楚,或許不能立刻在許多文章或是書籍中解釋清楚。
4. They embrace rejection as a learning experience.
他們將拒絕視為一種學(xué)習(xí)經(jīng)驗(yàn)
Their craft requires them to face the possibility of rejection on a regular basis. The best writers learn to use rejection as an opportunity to grow and improve.
他們的工作特性要求他們面對(duì)周期性的拒絕。最好的作家學(xué)著去將拒絕用作一種成長和提高的機(jī)會(huì)。
5. They are artists.
他們是藝術(shù)家
Writers express themselves creatively just like artists do. This means writers are artists. Be proud of your artist!
作家創(chuàng)造性的將他們表達(dá)得就像藝術(shù)家那樣。這就是說作家也是藝術(shù)家。為你的藝術(shù)家驕傲。
6. They are inspired.
他們獲得靈感
Inspiration may not always strike them at a fortuitous time. If an idea comes into their head while doing something you consider more important, try to be understanding that they may stop your preferred activity to take notes before the idea passes, never to return to their heads again.
靈感不總是隨時(shí)都有。如果有個(gè)好想法在你忙著做別的更重要的事情的時(shí)候降臨,試著去理解他們可能會(huì)在靈感離開之前做筆記,讓你停止你更喜歡的活動(dòng),因?yàn)檫@個(gè)靈感不會(huì)再次出現(xiàn)。
