Rebirth As a Writer In Britain

Chapter 9 Editor’s meeting

Mr. Curry explained in detail the situation of tomorrow’s semi-final on stage, and then shared his writing experience over the years with everyone.

In his opinion, a good writer should be inseparable from life. Novels should be life. Novels must not be higher than life. Novels higher than life cannot move people’s hearts.

Kevin admired his view very much. In his previous life, he had always followed this idea to write novels, but because of being too traditional and having bad luck, he kept on the street.

“Well, literary talents, I have said everything I have said. As for tomorrow, whoever is the champion depends on your own performance. Bye.”

After finishing speaking, Mr. Curry smiled kindly and left to the applause of everyone.

According to the process arrangement, the players participating in the semi-finals first came to the London publishing house to report, and then Mr. Curry had a meeting to explain the situation of the semi-final tomorrow. After that, the players could choose to visit everything about the London publishing house. .

So, after the meeting, many players who participated in the rematch chose to visit the London Press before returning to the hotel.

In the London publishing house, the editor-in-chief Enni is sitting in her unique office looking at the selected manuscripts. These manuscripts are all of the contestants participating in the semi-finals.

According to the arrangement of the London publishing house, at the beginning, the editor-in-chief Enni was able to serve as one of the general judges of this literary competition, but because she was going to study at Arsenal temporarily, she retired from the position of chief judge.

Today is also the first day that the editor-in-chief Enni came back from studying at Arsenal. As an old editor who has been in the literary editing industry for seven or eight years, she asked the editorial assistant to pick up the drafts that were selected for the semi-finals as soon as she returned. Give her a look.

Yes, she is always concerned about the status of this literary competition, she wants to see what the status of the articles of these contestants is.

There are more than twenty articles in total, and Enni read it very carefully. It was until the evening when her colleagues were off work, she blinked.

“It’s okay, it’s about the same level as in previous years, I hope they have good results in the semi-finals.”

When she said this, Enni still hadn’t read the last manuscript. Although it was time to get off work, she was always diligent and planned to finish reading the last manuscript.

“”The Rose of Love” turned out to be a poem. The courage and self-confidence of the author can be seen in this kind of competition. Let me take a look.”

So, the editor-in-chief Enni looked down curiously:

Years cannot destroy love,

But being ignorant and unjust makes the flower of love suffer,

Even if it is blooming in the shade of fantasy,

will also wither suddenly, catching you off guard.

Years cannot destroy love,

But being indifferent and unrighteous will destroy love,

will destroy its shrine shining with vermilion light.

“Wonderful, this writing is really wonderful, this thought is really so original.” After seeing the last few lines of the poem, Enni couldn’t help muttering to herself.

Yes, “The Rose of Love” can be described as one of the classic masterpieces of the great British poet Shelley on earth. Shelley has used his life’s imagination in those poems. This is also the key to his poetry’s popularity for generations to come.

Enni couldn’t help being deeply immersed in this poem. She read it five times in one breath and still felt that it was not enough.

“The insights on love and sophistication are so profound and unique. Such a talent must be the pride of British literature in the future. I really want to meet this author and ask him how he wrote such works.”

Enni, the editor-in-chief, has been the kind of person who dares to think and do since she was young. She immediately found Kevin’s phone number from the manuscript information, and then called without hesitation.

At this time, Kevin was watching the Premier League game in the hotel, but it was a replay of the match between Manchester United and Crystal Palace.

“Damn, Falcao is really awesome, he kicked the ball in with ease.”

Kevin said excitedly.

Just after saying this, the phone started to vibrate. This is a low-level mobile phone that is very common in the UK. There is no ringtone, and it can only vibrate when there is a call or a message. However, this phone is already quite good for Kevin, who is a poor family.

Kevin looked at the number, very strange, hesitated to pick it up. In the end, he, who was reborn as a member of the country of courtesy, picked up.

“Hello, are you Mr. Kevin? Did you write “The Rose of Love”?”

“Yes, I am Kevin, I wrote “Love Rose”. May I ask you who are you?” Kevin returned politely.

Kevin certainly remembers that “The Rose of Love” was written by him, but isn’t this a poem he used to participate in the London Literary Competition? How would the other party know?

“Oh, that’s good. I’m the editor-in-chief of the London Press, and my name is Enni. Your article is so good, can we see you below. Oh, it just happens to be time for dinner, we can stop by Have dinner. UU reading www.uukahnshu.com” Enni said.

“Of course, but I am not familiar with the City of London. Dear Miss Enni, you know, I am from Edinburgh, I am a newcomer.”

If you can have an appointment with the editor-in-chief of the London Literature Publishing House, Kevin certainly won’t miss it. Besides, isn’t his “Jane Eyre” signed by a publisher now? Maybe it was the wrong choice to hand her over to Enni.

After all, the London Literary Press is one of the best publishing houses in the UK, and it is no worse than the Dehai Press, which threw the “Jane Eyre” manuscript into the trash before. And in terms of strength, the London Literature Publishing House can also be ranked in the top five, which is why it has the ability to hold the most authoritative competition in English literature.

“Don’t worry, I won’t bully your newcomers. You are waiting at the hotel, and I will drive over to pick you up. Oh, great Mr. Kevin, we’ll see you later.”

“Okay, respectable Miss Enni, I’ll see you later.”

Enni’s soft ticking voice made Kevin really unable to guess her age. But if he can be the editor-in-chief of the London Literature Press, he is in his thirties. But listening to that voice, Kevin really couldn’t imagine that it was spoken by a woman in her thirties.

After putting down the phone, Kevin put the USB flash drive storing the “Jane Eyre” manuscript in his pocket, and planned to recommend it to the editor-in-chief of Enni.

Even if the editor-in-chief Enni is interested in his “Rose of Love”, he will definitely like “Jane Eyre”. After all, these works can withstand the test in any country on the earth. Back then, Dehai Publishing House didn’t want it, it was their loss. One day, they will regret it.
