在这里John Irvings通过作家Ted的口道出了写作的一些技巧。
I read your, um... your story.
Oh. I thought you forgot.
No. I just didn't have a chance
to get to it before.
It's not very good, is it?
Oh, it's, uh... it's very heartfelt,
very... very personal.
It's, um...
Well, it's just a collection
of personal anecdotes
that don't really add up to much.
It's, uh...
I was just tryin' to see if I could
write something that seemed true.
Oh, it seems true. It, uh,
just isn't very interesting.
Sort of a...
an emotional outburst, but, uh,
it isn't really a story.
And that, uh... the guy, Hank...
you know, the one who dies at the end?
Yeah.
You need to prepare a reader
for something like that. Uh...
It just... It didn't seem like
the way things happened.
Well,
you need to let your audience
guess what's gonna happen...
you know, anticipate
what's gonna happen...
and then you surprise them.
