The Adventure

偶然发现了这一名作者/插画家,Mordicai Gerstein,喜欢他说的这几句话。

“I found that, for me, writing was a bit like gardening. I learned to plant ideas in my mind like seeds, and when they sprouted (if they sprouted), to cultivate them, nurture them, and help them grow. I never know what kind of fruit, vegetable, or flower a story will turn out to be. Sunflower or turnip? After writing on various projects for over ten years my first book turned out to be a duck. ”

“I think that making books, or any kind of art, might also be like mining. The artist digs into his or her life and imagination and never knows what they'll find. That's the adventure. ”
