Sometimes there are always some ideas and thoughts wandering in your mind, some of them are realized by yourself, some are suggested by some people, you always try to write these ideas down or engrave them on something.
Writing, let’s answer a question first, is writing a very peaceful thing or a very painful thing? I think writing is actually a very painful thing, like a woman's dystocia, this article is like your child, it has been brewing in your brain for a long time, but the beginning is the hardest, you don't know how to write, how Making one's mind a visible substance is indeed the hardest part.
Under normal circumstances, you don’t want to be disturbed when you are writing, especially from the outside world. However, what disturbs you actually comes from your heart. You must admit that it is some thoughts in your heart, some of which are related to what you were at that time. Thinking things and conflicting things hinder the progress of your thoughts.
Back to the most original question, where does art come from? Very simple, art comes from life, it is a common story in our life, everyone has a story, the story reflects your psychological activities, your emotional changes, in other words, the core of the story lies in the characters, in the hearts of the characters The zigzag curve of activity, so art is our mind. But there is another saying, art is higher than life? Yep? How is it higher than life? This requires your own refinement, your perception, your experience and understanding of the characters in the story itself, which requires your ability to generalize, so you are higher than the average person's thinking, and you must be able to see the story behind the story. In essence, it can capture the subtle changes in the emotions of the characters. In other words, the level of the author should be higher than that of the general public. Only in this way can stories be written. However, there is a contradiction. If you are higher than the class of people you want to write about, how can you understand their inner world? You stand from a different angle with them, and your way of looking at the problem must be different, so what should we do? It's a difficult question to answer, and like "Barton Fink," it's never been able to get rid of it. Even if he always wanted to write the stories of the common people, he still went to Hollywood, not to make a lot of money, not to be famous, but why did he say again and again, "You should know me, I'm Barton Funk" ! A writer! The brain is my uniform!", "You guys should watch my drama, although many people don't know it, but it is still famous in drama circles" and so on.
A writer needs a friend, a friend to talk to, but don't be too happy, because the writer can't find any friends, the only friend he has is himself, another self, another Barton Funk, one who happens to be a party to his own imagination On the contrary, Barton Fink needs to listen to himself, encourage and comfort himself when he is disappointed, and help himself when he needs assistance the most. But what does the last fire, the last sentence "Hi, Hitler" mean? It's a matter of opinion.
So being a writer is a very painful profession, a very miserable profession, he needs you to keep a kind of loneliness, a kind of painful experience, just like "Mei Lanfang" said, "His talent all comes from that loneliness."
