课程名称:腹有“熊”才,写出精彩:写给读者看 课程概述: 这个课程的核心理念源于佐拉·尼尔·赫斯顿的名言:“心中怀揣未曾诉说的故事,是最巨大的痛苦。” 课程名称“Fire in the Belly”意在点燃写作者内心的激情,“Write to be Read”则强调写作的最终目标——被读者阅读。 讲师自诩为写出小说或回忆录的世界权威,并认为学员们低估了自身讲好故事的能力。课程内容丰富,共包含50多节课,将深入剖析写作的各个方面,包括:“通常嫌疑犯”——也就是语法、文学手法、情节、对话、出版等,但更重要的是,课程将致力于帮助学员将最初创作的激情和宗旨传递给读者。讲师强调,学员的文字是让精彩故事跃然纸上的翅膀。与其他侧重于“如何写作”的课程不同,本课程提倡“展翅高飞”而非“蹒跚而行”。 本课程的独特性在于讲师的个人风格和经历。他自称是“反编辑”,与学界精英不同,他深入生活,有过在婆罗洲丛林与猩猩共处、深夜雇佣蛇头穿越新加坡海峡、与灰鲸和鲨鱼同游等非凡经历。借用海明威的说法,讲师认为“为了写生活,你必须先经历生活”。他相信,自己之所以能讲好故事,是因为他自己就 lived a good story,并能帮助学员做到这一点。 课程强调,生活中经历的酸甜苦辣,无论是成功的还是失败的婚姻,其故事的吸引力与在南海抵御海盗的经历同样引人入胜。讲师最后以一句“你的故事是什么?我正在倾听。”结束,表达了对学员故事的期待和对课程互动性的强调。
"There is no greater agony than bearing an untold story inside you." Zora HurstonFire in the Belly: Write to be Read. You are the world's leading authority on your novel or memoir, and you have vastly underestimated your ability to tell a good story. Over 50 sessions, I arrest all the usual suspects (syntax, literary devices, plot, dialogue, publishing, etc.) but more importantly, together we'll infuse your readers with the same passion and purpose that compelled you to write in the first place. Your words are the wings that lift a great story off the page. Other courses may walk you through how to write your story… but why walk when you've got wings?This course is different from others because I am different; my peers in the field often refer to me as the anti-editor. While elites were sipping Chablis at Oxford, I popped open a beer with my orangutans in the jungles of Borneo, or paid a smuggler to get me across the Straits of Singapore at two in the morning, after the gunboats passed, or swam with the Gray Whales and sharks, or…Hemingway said in order to write about life, you have to live life. I can tell a good story because I've lived a good story, and I will help you to do the same. The adventure of your life within a failed or successful marriage can be every bit as intriguing and compelling as fending off pirates in the South China Sea.What's your story? I'm listening.
