Rebirth As a Writer In Britain

The Culture Salon of "Time Magazine" ended at 10:30 in the evening. After Kevin returned to Sykes from the Red Lantern Tavern, he felt that it was still early. I was going to write something from my mind.

Anyway, Kevin has promised Wall to write a manuscript for "Time Magazine", and with the matter of the cultural salon tonight, Kevin decided to write a short story for "Time Magazine". It also allows those who look down on themselves to see what a good work is.

"Time Magazine" specially opened a column for Kevin, which is also a credit to Kevin's writing. Therefore, Kevin's first article is very important. After all, if the first article of a new column is not well written, it will not leave a good impression on the readers. This will also directly affect the results of this column.

As soon as he said it, Kevin turned on the computer immediately, and then thought in his heart that he should copy down the short works of which literary master on earth.

At this time, he thought of the work of the outstanding British poet Yeats --- "When You Are Old".

Yeats's full name is William Butler Yeats. William Butler Yeats is a poet who is in the same position as T. S. Eliot in the modernist poetry circle in the 20th century. The impact is undoubtedly far-reaching. He was called "the greatest poet of our time" by Eliot. He won the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1923 for his outstanding contribution to the Renaissance at that time. His creative style has had a great influence on Ezra Pound, James Joyce and even Eliot. Even in contemporary times, his works are still being recited by countless foreign readers.

The poem "When You Are Old" is one of Yeats' representative romantic works. When You Are Old" is a passionate and sincere love poem written by Yeats to his girlfriend Maute Gunney. The language of the poem is concise, but the emotion is rich and real. This poem is perfect in both artistic expression and words, so Kevin has reason to believe that readers will not resist.

So, Kevin started typing on the keyboard:

When you are old, blotchy, and sleepy,

While dozing by the fire, take down this book,

Slowly recite, dreaming of your eyes in the past

The expression is soft, and the reflection in the eyes is deep;

How many people love your charming and charming time,

Love your beauty from false or true,

But only one loves the sincerity of your soul,

Love the bitter weather on your fading face;

stooped by the glowing hearth,

Whispers mournfully how Cupid has fled,

Roaming on the hilltops overhead,

Hide his face among the stars.

It turns out that Kevin was right to choose to write poetry at this time, because it only took a few minutes to write such a poem.

After Kevin got it done, he checked to see if there were any misspelled letters, and then sent it to Wall via email.

In order to live up to the expectations of Wall and Time Magazine, Kevin also posted text on Twitter after sending the manuscript to Wall.

"The latest poetry will be published in Time Magazine in the near future. I hope everyone can support it. There is my column."

After Kevin finished posting, he read the news on the computer, then turned off the computer and went to sleep. At the same time, those fans who saw the tweet started to mobilize again.

"Yo, Kevin finally wrote poetry again. It is said that he was able to enter the semi-finals of the London Literary Competition because of a poem.

"

"Yeah, I really want to see what Kevin's poems look like. It is said to be very romantic, so romantic that it wants people to die."

"That kind of deathly romantic poetry shouldn't exist, right? Oh, the legendary god of poetry, Alice, might be able to write it, but that's a myth."

"Anyway, I will buy a copy of Time Magazine and read it. I am very curious about the poems written by this talented young man."

"Yeah, I want to buy it too. Anyway, Time Magazine doesn't cost a lot of money."

At this time, those fans of Kevin began to be full of curiosity about the poems written by Kevin. Yes, who can write a wonderful story like "Jane Eyre", what kind of poems will he write?

Eighteen-year-old Jenny Norfolk had just come out of the shower at this time. She was wearing a thin transparent pajamas, looking particularly sexy and charming. Because she has the habit of watching Twitter before going to bed. So, when she logged on to Twitter, she saw Kevin posting this text.

"Poetry? Yes, perhaps you should make it romantic."

At this time, Jenny Norfolk was also full of curiosity about the poem written by Kevin. In order to be able to see the poem that Kevin said for the first time, she decided to order the people in the bookstore to try to read as many "Time" magazines as possible tomorrow morning. ", in this way, it is also a support for the article written by Kevin.

When Kevin woke up the next day, it was just past seven in the morning in London. Seven o'clock in London is no different from that in Edinburgh. People are still so busy, shopping for groceries, going to work, traveling, or practicing football. All kinds of things make up this bustling and busy city. city. The activities of the cultural salon are also over, if there is nothing to do. Kevin decided to go back to Edinburgh in the afternoon.

When Wall came to work at the company, he opened his mailbox and saw Kevin's contribution.

"Yo, it's a poem, not bad." Wall said to himself.

This is a short poem, but Wall spent half an hour on it. It's not that he has dyslexia, but this poem is too romantic and perfect. He couldn't help but read it several times. Perhaps with a good memory, he can already recite it at this time.

"It's really a perfect poem. Perhaps there is no writer or poet in the British literary world who can write such a beautiful poem. Kevin, you are really great."

Wall couldn't help but praise Kevin's writing. He didn't expect Kevin's speed to be so fast, and he had already submitted a manuscript before the contract was officially signed.

"Kevin talks about things", haha, it seems that this guy is going to talk about love first.

Wall said with a smile.

Even Kevin was so sincere, and Wall didn't delay. He immediately asked the company's affairs department to come up with a contract, and then called Kevin to the company at noon, and the two officially signed the column contract.

According to the contract, Wall also gave Kevin the highest treatment. That's a guarantee of £3,000 per article. This is a good number, after all, Kevin is still a rookie writer.

After Kevin came out of "Time Magazine", he couldn't help but lament that this country that pays attention to literature pays writers a lot of money. Perhaps, only in this way will more literary talents devote themselves to the ranks of creation. Thank you for your support, Papaya is really happy. Although I have to go to work every day, I will work hard to save the manuscript. Now even when I go to the toilet, I use my mobile phone to code words. So, hope to get your support. In that case, papaya will be more motivated. I wish you all the best and remember to take care of yourselves. Only when you are well, will you have the energy to support and recommend my works.
