爱德华·博克《爱德华·博克自传》· The Americanization of Edward Bok · 领导
Edward believed he could convince editors of the public interest in a newsy, readable New York literary letter, and he prevailed upon the editor of the New York Star to allow him to supplement the book reviews of George Parsons Lathrop in that paper by a column of literary chat called "Literary Leaves." For a number of weeks he continued to write this department, and confine it to the New York paper, feeling that he needed the experience for the acquirement of a readable style, and he wanted to be sure that he had opened a sufficient number of productive news channels to ensure a continuous flow of readable literary information.

白话
爱德华相信自己能说服编辑们:一份报道新闻、可读性强的纽约文学通讯会受公众欢迎。他说服《纽约星报》编辑,允许他在乔治·帕森斯·拉思罗普的书评之外,增写一个名为“文学叶子”的文学闲聊专栏。连续数周,他只给这家纽约报纸写这个专栏,因为他觉得自己需要借此练出可读的文风,也想确认自己已经打通足够多能持续产出新闻的渠道,保证文学信息源源不断。

出自爱德华·博克的自传《爱德华·博克的美国化》,讲述他早年作为移民青年在纽约报界闯荡、主动争取写作机会的经历。
今日一问
你目前有没有一个可以刻意练习、先不求回报的“小专栏”?
