我不问作家关于他们的工作习惯。我真的不在乎。乔伊斯·卡罗尔·欧茨在某个地方说过,当作家们互相询问他们什么时候开始工作,什么时候结束,以及午餐花多长时间时,他们实际上是在试图找出,“他和我一样疯狂吗?”我不需要这个问题的答案。
I don’t ask writers about their work habits. I really don’t care. Joyce Carol Oates says somewhere that when writers ask each other what time they start working and when they finish and how much time they take for lunch, they’re actually trying to find out, ‘Is he as crazy as I am?’ I don’t need that question answered.
