"Porque, si uno está escribiendo novelas hoy en día, el trabajo de campo es cada vez más un arte perdido. Tómate todo el tiempo que necesites siéntate con la gente y profundiza. Las galaxias pueden ser infinitesimales pero ningún detalle es demasiado pequeñ"
— Neil Gaiman
Simplified Meaning:
Nowadays, writing novels involves less direct interaction with people and experiences. Instead of just relying on imagination or second-hand information, it's important to take your time to meet and talk with different people. Spend time understanding their stories and emotions deeply. Even the tiniest details can make a big difference in your writing, like tiny stars in a vast galaxy coming together to form a beautiful picture. For example, if you're writing about a chef, actually visiting a kitchen and observing how they work, asking them about their favorite dishes, and learning their struggles will provide rich, authentic details that will make your story come alive. By diving into real-life experiences, your writing will be much more vivid and genuine.
