2022-04-12 'Reach just one reader' [長年日記]

"There is a world of difference between 'can do' and 'done'"

I think this is common to all things, but especially in "manufacturing," it is an absolute fact.

The program's components are here. So all I have to do is assemble them. After that, It is tempting to feel as if the system has been completed.

In reality, however, the cost (hardship) becomes the same as or exceeds the total cost of conventional parts design and manufacturing.

If the system does not work, it is just garbage.

-- Well, let's get started (sigh)

Recently, I bring my tablet to the bath to read "side story".

However, there are numerous scattered items that have been left in the middle of the story without completing it.

I can understand how a story the writer spread around, and no longer be collected or recovered, and finally they throwed it out.

Besides, 'they have the freedom to leave it unfinished' -- this is probably the difference between professionals and amateurs.

It is arrogant of me to complain as a reader, but I would like to read the story completed properly, no matter what the outcome.

-----

However, I know that it is quite a struggle to keep writing when no feedback (praise or criticism) comes at all.

"I don't want to read your novels at all. Stop it". You might feel as if you were under unspoken pressure.

I can understand it well.

This is really hard.

I also come to that thought every time I release a column.

I would like to share my thoughts with you.

'Reach just one reader'

I contribute my monthly column with the thought.
