說得對，中庸之道在這裏是不行的。藝術就得能走多遠，走多遠。寫小說也有"follow your inner demon" 的說法。

就是說，當你一切都計劃好了，突然來了一個很瘋狂的idea，這個時候，一定要follow這個idea，是成是敗就在這裏。

寫小說，畫畫，音樂，都是需要勇氣和強大的心智。你是在把自己整個人都通過你的作品展現出來，不能慫！

下麵是我喜歡的兩個說法：

“A person who publishes a book appears willfully in public eye with his pants down. ”~ Edna St. Vincent Millay

 

“Occasionally, there arises a writing situation where you see an alternative to what you are doing, a mad, wild gamble of a way for handling something, which may leave you looking stupid, ridiculous or brilliant -you just don't know which. You can play it safe there, too, and proceed along the route you'd mapped out for yourself. Or you can trust your personal demon who delivered that crazy idea in the first place. Trust your demon. “”~ Roger Zelazny

所有跟帖： 

• 哇，你積累了好多寫作理論。：）第一個說法很野蠻，但事實如此。第二個說法成就的是作品獨一無二的個性，需要強大的靈魂來支持。。。學習 -塵凡無憂- ♀ (0 bytes) () 04/12/2021 postreply 19:25:21

• 嘿嘿，我們作為讀者都有點“偷窺癖”。要說看打鬥看言情甚至色情，到處都有的看。我們讀書其實讀的就是作者最private，最需要勇氣 -FionaRawson- ♀ (54 bytes) () 04/12/2021 postreply 19:33:27
