青年朋友常问:写作成败的关键在哪里? 很难回答。因为小说创作成败的因素很多。比如题材问题,写作技巧问题,语言问题,艺术构思问题,结构问题……等等,都可能影响作品的成败。甚至,某些文学之外的问题,比如写作习惯是否得到顺应和受到影响,也可能成为作品成败及能否问世的关键。鲁迅常在晚上写作。陪伴他的除了笔、墨、纸、砚外,还有烟。老舍习惯上午写作。他每天起床很早,七点多钟便开始动笔,一直到中午才休息。下午和晚上,是他参加各种社会活动的时间。这些习惯如果得不到遵从,比如哪一天晚上鲁迅先生的案头上没有烟了,我们很难想象第二天早 Young friends often ask: Where is the key to writing success? It is difficult to answer. Because there are many factors in the success or failure of a novel. Issues such as subject matter, writing skills, language problems, artistic conception, structural issues, etc. may all affect the success or failure of the work. Even some of the issues outside of literature, such as whether the writing habits are reconciled and influenced, may become the key to the success or failure of the work. Lu Xun often writes at night. In addition to pens, ink, paper, and enamel, there are cigarettes that accompany him. Lao She used to write in the morning. He got up very early every day and started writing more than seven o’clock. He rested until noon. In the afternoon and evening, he participated in various social activities. If these habits are not followed, for example, on which day Mr. Lu Xun’s desk has no smoke, it is hard to imagine the next morning.
