爱德华·博克《爱德华·博克自传》· The Americanization of Edward Bok · 领导

Here was exactly what the editor wanted, but he was the author! He changed the name to Ruth Ashmore, and decided to let the manuscript go into the magazine. He reasoned that he would then have a month in which to see the writer he had in mind, and he would show her the proof. But a month filled itself with other duties, and before the editor was aware of it, the composition-room wanted "copy" for the second installment of "Side Talks with Girls." Once more the editor furnished the copy!

白话

这正是主编想要的效果,可作者竟是他自己。他把署名改成露丝·阿什莫尔,决定让稿子先上杂志。他想,这样自己就有一个月时间去找原本看中的那位作者,还能把校样给她看。但一个月被其他事填满,等他反应过来,排字房已经在催“与女孩的侧谈”第二期的稿子。主编只好又自己写了一份。

上下文

Bok 原本只想用自己写的稿子做示范,却因拖延和排字房催稿,不得不继续亲自写。

今日一问

你是否也曾因为“先应付一下”而把自己拖进一个本不想长期承担的角色?
