Excerpt
Learning how to organize a long article is just as important as learning how to write a clear and pleasing sentence.
Readers can process only one idea at a time, and they do it in linear sequence.
No less important than decisions about structure are decisions about individual words. Banality is the enemy of good writing; the challenge is to not write like everybody else.
Often the story will tell you where it wants to stop.
As a nonfiction writer you must get on the plane.
Decide what you want to do. Then decide to do it. Then do it.
很喜欢最后一段话。首先知道你想去做什么，做好计划，然后就去实现它吧。年轻人总是有梦想的，只是执行力够不够的问题_(:зゝ∠)_
