琴酒03-18虽然跟我寻找的academic writing并无半毛联系,但是中箭中到体无完肤之后深受启发。最深的一点在于,自信的作者要敢于用绝对的方式——砍掉形容词,副词,时间状语等种种限定——清晰地说出“我”。

大炎02-26# kindle # 趁春节这几天啃掉,很多看法与寡人相似,有机会瞧瞧中译本(译本必然不如原作,老先生特别强调韵律,写完文章还要大声朗读,语感不顺就调正,再有如 Venice-Versailles 押“头韵”的小心思,翻过来肯定没了)…前两部分是精华,第三部分略枯淡,第四部分稍有重复训导…写作要明确目标→读者,但出发点是“我”,要写“我”的故事、发现等…如何“沟通”这两端?讲求“人”味,“人”味通行天下,必能感动读者…如何有“人”味?废弃抽象语汇,使用带画面感词句…而且炼字之外,造句谋篇布局皆须用心,文章层层递进,教人割舍不能…全篇须韵律谐和,轻松风趣(专门花好大一篇讲《幽默》)…可以用本书抗议官僚八股,想想国朝那些丑陋的公文…《尽力写好》一章火气好大,老先生恨死乱改他文章的编辑了,哈哈
