투 챕터 북클럽 17기 [GRIT]_ 43-46p _ 10일차

- We thought at the time they were good; they were the best we could make, but our thinking was so elemental that the pots had that quality also, and so they don't have a richness about them which I look for in my work today."

- Since reading and writing didn't come easily, Irving learned that to do anything really well, you have to overextend yourself... In my case, I learned that I just had to pay twice as much attention. I came to appreciate that in doing something over and over again, something that was never natural becomes almost second nature. You learn that you have the capacity for that, and that it doesn't come overnight."

-But those who struggle early may learn it better: "One reason I have confidence in writing the kind of novels I write," Irving said, "is that I have confidence in my stamina to go over something again and again no matter how difficult it is." After his tenth novel, Irving observed, "Rewriting is what I do best as a writer. I spend more time revising a novel or screenplay than I take to write the first draft." 

"It's become an advantage," Irving has observed of his inability to read and spell as fluently as others. 

 

 

오랜만에 다시 네이버 밴드의 투챕터 17기 모임에 들어갔는데... 네이버 아이디가 해킹당한건지...밴드 이용이 제한되었다ㅠㅜㅜㅜ

너무 아쉽지만... 그냥 나 혼자서라도 계속 독서 인증을 해야겠다. 밴드 제한 생겼다고 원서 읽기를 포기할 수는 없잖아?

그래도 할 건 계속 해야지..
