with the bat on the world - application note to help the beginners, the ministers of pen and ink (about what are the kinds of articles and how to write correctly).

                     ... Anything! ...


    $% Surv! V0r, 2oo1


    One philosopher said, unfortunately I do not remember who: 
"We we only know, but let it be known to you that

known unknowns. "From this and we will draw on.


    From all the press with great difficulty can extract a 
couple of application of articles designed to help novice 
writers, ministers of the pen and ink. Demand gives rise to a 
counter offer. 


    I consider it necessary to outline the range of concepts 
that I operate with our conversation with you ...



    For me, reader - the person is always concrete, not
generalized cumulative, ie, no crowd and no volunteers
agitation trains, and only by the fact that texts can not be 
read in unison smoke-filled room. Individualism must be compared

minimalism in everything, when the electronic publication of 
the Division on behalf of it perceives only a thin wall glass 
picture tube, tete-a-tete, so - my treatment to any of you I

okonkrechivayu to the banal 'you'. And not so much from 
indifference relation to your iconostasis to heels person, but 
because of of equal bias against you as a great

sceners and newfound Lameroo.


    No difference for me, all are equal and the word 'reader'
combines all of you in front of me is quite true.


    Scene - the personification of ebullient samizdat in 
electronic form; if the internet came up with for 40 years 
before, all underground The authors do not agree with the tip 
of the ongoing political Olympus line would have been happy to 
throw a weakness in the muscles themselves tempting shackles of 
philosophizing and day and night could create Hoodley, 
ideological texts, simply chronicle the life literally tons of 
whole and cars. The scene is not asking political asylum, so 
the authors of her problems should not cause any.



    History will put everything in its place, today
difficulty in establishing a coherent paragraph stsenovogo text
manifested not in otstutstvii hardware consolidation
information, and in hollow chepernyh boxes failure
will and even banal Oblomov laziness. I exaggerate of coz.
Naturally, all this is not about those who have not broken down 
in the dark folly of selfishness and still tries to show the 
world a bit of his from the top drawer of the desk.



    I am not a professional journalist and critic, not even to
authority to speak on this subject with you, but it is, I think 
I can count on that shred of confidence that you can me

provide to you I have spent to date, so
Moreover, it is only my personal view, not pretending to
absolute truth.


    There is no universal recipe as 'delicious' to write an 
article, yes even a simple note about this or that event, even 
more difficult turns to pick up the theme in order to turn it 
into a masterpiece. In terms of value, which was originally the 
product of any (Lists you that story, article or report about 
demoparty) has some stoymostnuyu characteristic, but to make it 
more attractive this needs to be working quite a while.



    This process as they gain practical skills
goes into entertaining pastime, but this somehow
at other times.


    Interest in materials heated them fried up ash
crust color, different-sized exposition and, oddly enough,
different views on the very stsenovuyu life. And when we say 
that Journalism - it's organized evil, then it is difficult not

agree with this statement.


    The mystery of the world is known study of the soul. No 
right turns one who tries to immediately disown himself from 
rank researcher. It is true that the investigator on the scene 
is any man - artist, musician, coder, writer. It does not matter

the name of this researcher with stsenovoy terms
any one word or nothing at all - it does not matter - we
everything revolves around a single, all-in-one - in the scene.


    After the selection of topics on which you are going to 
encroach, can assume that is one-fourth of success, ie 25

percent of that article is written you, but how - this is
depends on you and your own desire to reach final
result.


    From personal experience I can share the observation that, 
as Typically, the idea of ​​a future article comes quite 
unexpectedly, unplanned, as the same child. In most cases,

desire to express thoughts dictated impressions of some
svezheizdannogo on the scene of the journal or simply 
impressions of recognized nowhere facts. Needless to say, the 
heading 'with a bat the world 'in principle Insanity brings a 
touch live article.



    So, bearing in mind the title of a future column or even
some key phrase, you can begin to write. If
really hard to decide - what issue is most
suitable, then write about what you know for sure whether it's 
allowance for connecting a monitor or selling software. 
Although such training for me already represent another 
category of Fiction Series '1000 tips on ... ' and to think, as 
a rule, not push. For all this, do not think that just bear 
zhelamoe and really worth attention.



    To begin to talk about the aspects of the scene, at least
need it least a little bit to understand. This will help you all
a variety of magazines and newspapers, who are imbued with the 
lion share of modern media.



    Well, teach you about where to take information about a 
scene I will not now at hand for most fido7, internet, live 
print edition. To generate ideas' about what to write? " advise 
you to read dozens of articles on the topic of the day from the 
past and present flagship publishing on your favorite computer.



    I consider it unnecessary to agitate you for writing the 
'purely stsenovyh 'materials, but generally, everything that 
the scene is not has no direct relationship stsenovym assume 
will not even Despite the affiliation of the author to 
stsenovomu environment. 


    Typically, the technicians on vocation and the mentality is 
not quite possess the talent of literary writing, but at first

pores that is not required. Analysis of the works most
contemporary authors show that to date most
The dominant genre on stage in favor littvorchestve
patireport. And no matter what party was too much, most of
that describe the events 'from' and 'to' in this case is much
simpler, because fantasy is virtually absent, and the flight
thoughts clearly laid on the bed of squabbling ekzaltiroannyh
organizers and tusuyuscheysya to wear the brethren.


    It turns out that the most underdeveloped on the scene
is a genre of surveys, the so-called review, ie, description of 
the work with demoparty and compare them with others. Revue 
devoted not only component of the work, surveys generally 
highly specific creature with the breadth of the girth of 
several dozen copies of the new programming to the detailed 
study of the past. 


    The reason is simple - a detailed description of each work 
and forming their own relationship to it is not always original,

Diversity works even when the monotony of the review is guessed 
at uniformity of assessments. To review needs a special 
approach. 


    While on the other hand, there is nothing easier than to 
state sobstvennove opinion on what he saw in the compo staff.



    Meanwhile, the foldable express their thoughts, few people 
can. This noticeable to most, unfortunately is the reality. A 
common mistake All reports are inconsistent statement, the 
excessive anticipation of events and their subsequent new 
description, or strengthening the perception of meaning 
blotches like 'we went there and buy beer there and then came 
here and bought another. " 


    You can understand a person who only remembers that he drank
and with whom they slept, but if the description of this 
process takes longer Part reportage, it's a pathology of the 
author, with what it can and congratulations. There is nothing 
wrong of it would have received a good journalist for wine and 
spirits tasting theme. But the scene taste so much sense to not 
see the clear reasons, or any demoparty would have performed on 
the concurrently with any beer festival.



    And yet, reportage, I believe, should not only carry a
one line, which is subject to all of the text.


    For all the individuality of the author's approach to 
presenting the material, its main purpose - to give an 
objective picture of what was happening, and let the reader 
decide for itself - what is really at the party was well and 
what does not. I myself do not try someone for something to 
teach any free to remain in their precious point of view, but 
with today's perspective, I can tell you exactly say that

some of your stuff I would have not written the way it was
previously done and published.


    Actually, I do not want to dwell on 'reportage', because
this is not my most favorite genre.


    Yes, the world changes and the apparent desirability of 
this or that phrase or even a whole paragraph, after a while it 
no longer seems itself. Ie decide for themselves the question 
of finality article it is sometimes not easy, and sometimes 
impossible for a long time, making many things are just placed 
on the table and rest up for awhile.



    So, I went with some of his unpublished
articles. They have once again raised important issues,
interesting to me as a researcher. Once I started to
write or nearly finished the thought was lost. To this day there
some developments to which I refer. Is such that
dead-end narrative does not allow
move, and it is not so rare, so not just once or twice
you will be faced with the fact that there is some invisible
obstacle and overcome by standard methods
okazyvaets impossible.


    The reason for this may be a commonplace beginning.


    Starting with an article should always be something. All 
who have something already writing know that well to begin the 
story already takes Some stones chashy weights, which should 
outweigh in its favor. Sometimes, the first sentence no one is 
looking for specifically. That As for me, I'm looking for it 
... but after the bulk of the text has already been created, so 
you do not pay any attention to me and make their own way.



    It happens, it would be better if we exclude the three or 
four the first sentence and paragraph and see what happens.

Usually result in something totally acceptable, because you
already signed and entered into a rut, and the words fly, fly 
... 


    Paragraph or a few sentences at the beginning it's always 
like writers say, intonation. Here they are, and what sort of

introductory part, but not an introduction, because the 
introduction of prepares the consciousness of the reader to 
supply the main filling content. Previously, for this I tried 
to use epigraphs. Later, I lost interest in this idea.



    Yes, the epigraphs are necessary, but not always possible 
to choose indeed the appropriate meaning and content. I would 
not assure you that the epigraphs are an indication of some

coolness or uplifting, this understanding comes with time,
but go through most of it, maybe I can not now express
this more clearly, but I believe that this will be proven 
sooner or late. Epigraph - a matter of taste.



    There is a problem of another kind - the lack of thought. 
Thought as would have, but its content is not quite enough to

squeeze out of her proposal, to clothe the idea in verbal form.
It is useful to remember for some time attempts to copy
writing slide into a dusty corner. Explains it all
very simple. Articles requiring unit otlezhki to author
The next morning, or after a certain time from a different 
angle looked on the fruit of his imagination, which looms 
before her eyes. 


    For me this is one of the techniques when they become 
stagnant and desire to drop everything and move away from a 
text editor too great, I broke up with my ideas and I weeks of 
nothing take, while one should not assume that I have

a writer's itch. I write solely in the text
editor, and I do not think there is someone who first
monogram prints on paper, and then enters them into the 
computer. 


    Whoever thinks that in order to write a million perfectly
right thinking. But I think that writing talent
is to not have a single thought and be able to
nevertheless express!


    Any article ideally should in principle
contain a three-tier structure. That you are familiar with. We 
call them traditionally - the introduction of the action, 
conclusion. Each of them can be subdivided further on the n-th 
number of components, and the more you think about them, the 
plot will be more pronounced Again, I think - what you write. 
In this case, I do not dare say what you need to write clearly 
on the thought of a plan, on paper.



    If you can not see for yourself the integrity of opisyvamom 
event or a framework for future articles that you want to see 
it, then need to write in a small, episodes, scenes, and 
sketches. Immediately write, for example, the report, those who 
have not tried it, do not out, nor will all make a descent, at 
once, one sitting, as they say in one act, without intermission.



    Intermission is needed and even more successful in the 
search word or phrases I walk around the room or just looking 
out the window and, a miracle in my head start to come amazing 
things - you you begin to feel a certain depth of his words.



    We will assume that you know how to write. Later I 
encountered another problem - people just do not know how to 
read and this they also need, unfortunately, to teach. We 
should mention that read correctly only true written texts. For 
all difficulty reading (perceive) the text on the monitor 
should be accustomed to think about what they read, rather than 
drive around in the text in search of regular jokes or typos. 
Although, to each his own. 


    Punctuation marks as a musical great help in
mastering written, and therefore, adherence to their reading
is an essential rule of correct perception. Of course,
the text is perceived at the proper level, if he, firstly,
competently written, and secondly, if the reader is adequately 
understood it intonatsinonnuyu and emotional features.



    Maybe I'll show too immodest, but because I
began to speak with you, the reader, more otrkrovenno I'm not 
going to you hide - I admire krasivno written texts, I

I can name you a lot of authors and a list of not less than 10 
sheets books that you have read, but believe me, it is very 
important to have an idea of ​​what and how other people write, 
so do not count to look for work at least some part of the 
classical literature and modern fiction and

philosophical thought. But the beauty of the shell of thought 
is not the most important ...



    Thought must push the reader to think, not just
ascertain facts or speculation. Thought must live in his
head, causing the association.


    Respect to the Russian language you must be at
principle. I have nothing against anyone
another language, graphomania fully elsewhere, but it applies 
to this article, the Russian language as a means of expression 
is for me defining the concept.



    Rules of the language, the spelling of words, of course, 
important criterion by which you can appreciate the readers and 
drive in head of the postulates of Russian grammar, spelling, 
you all still have, if unable to do this in my school time.

Absolute knowledge no one else, so feel free to own
ignorance is not necessary. Spelling dictionary to fill
gap is quite amiss.


    Squiggles and swirls of words sort through probably not
too difficult, but who will undertake what is to detect a
susceptibility?


    Enhances your text contrasting phrases, unusual
comparisons, avoid the frequent repetition of the same words.
Search for synonyms and deliverance from the stamps will become 
your language daily responsibilities because monotonous and 
stamped text causes bouts of melancholy. The diversity of words 
can be strengthened adjectives and participles.



    I am more than confident that the English are not concerned 
sceners refined the idea of ​​a syllable and high poetry, but 
if you need quality, then try to reach it, comprehending the 
works of masters words.



    In my opinion in the school curriculum in literature much
is superfluous, but in the end of their college years, I
Finally I realized that many things I would have simply not
prevented, and I've read dozens of classics mixed with a dozen
science fiction authors to contrast ... For the greatest
fiction of Vladimir Lenin has not yet undertaken, but in search 
of interesting and even fun things can go to the roof, not only

on the grounds of the existential reading of texts like the 
classics German and French philosophy, but especially from the 
Russian thought.



    All this for what it said?


    Accustom themselves to the daily reading. No cheap
detectives and other novels for killing time in the commotion
Subway or crush a bus should not be. Sounds
at least strange and almost too blatantly, boldly and 
unnecessarily even naive, but 25 minutes a day this is enough. 
It it is equally important step towards improving

own thoughts than anything else you want to comprehend.


    If you feel you are quite free to state emphatically
conception of the universe now, in writing, according to Kant 
and Laplassu, the second law of Newton and Mendel's laws, then 
you remains a small part on the way to the cherished dream. It 
is with nakompleniem amount of information that she at one point

transformed into quality. Thus are born newspapers, magazines, 
including and electronic.



    When verbal communication, people do not always watch their
speech, however, speaking entirely affect the
course of writing ideas. Therefore, seeking to enrich their
vocabulary.


    I appreciate different ways: from the humorist, to 
absolutely incomprehensible novelist. Texts impregnated 
interesting content to read juicy, must necessarily

carry a certain charge of mystery and ambiguity. C
the first time this will not at all. But I am such an approach 
even interesting, because it is one of my hobbies, as well as a 
scene. 


    Gromada phrases, polished designs from Compound
I do not always constructed according to the rules of Russian 
language and to any philologist with higher education would 
find fault with what in my Polyphonic svlovesnyh sounds. It 
does not matter. Today I pick on him.



    Set ourselves the task of the most beautiful (right)
to express his future thought. Redundancy phrases or their lack 
of usually occurs when avotr building compound

proposal draws them subordinate to the participial
turnovers. As a result a lot, but it is not clear.


    Yes, I love - when a lot, but at the first stage of
you need, just to avoid such constructions.
Use simple sentences, and only then is synthesized
more informed. But does not apply to my words as to the truth
last resort. My particular not with placebo.


    As for style, it is not clear, I do not pose. Style - is
manner of presentation of thoughts. Each style has its own, as 
well individually as handwriting. At first, you're inevitably 
going to try to repeat someone else's style and even, perhaps, 
you've got something to start obtained, but in exactly the same 
as her favorite author Thou shalt not, inidvidualnye features 
you simply overpower. The whole thing in your psychology.



    Nebula in the judgments is not excluded, but as in any thing
not devoid of fiction entropy sense
must be present. Need to reread, citizens! After all, just
texts Hoodley and otherwise require thoughtful consideration.


    The author consciously and explicitly should make it clear 
to the reader what style he would have to 'eat' serves. Here is 
what I I try to convince you that the elaboration of his own 
writing style composed of addiction to a particular literary

course and their own views on the style. Delve into
question about the styles there is no need; philological
aspects are not so interesting, and more simplified knowledge I 
have you handed.




    In my stsenovoy life - that life, not in one of its
artificially particular take a bite, which is referred to as 
the cannibalistic creativity, I use two methods, ie There are 
only two methods which I did, and became who was. In most cases,

certainly stagnate, but some small steps to make
failed.


    The first method, perhaps - introspection. For enthusiastic
psychology is all it should be clear. But still, I will explain 
- this is in listening to his I, meditation, if you want - 
yasnovidinie. Not be afraid of or something to wonder just 
these phenomena in other words are called concentration.



    This can be said for a long time, but I have not seen a 
single a man who would not be able to concentrate on their own 
thoughts and decide for itself several urgent problems.



    As you see, everything is simple - sit down in front of the 
monitor placed next to a mug of coffee or tea and persistent 
meditation in search of writer thread you must convince to take 
the first step. In this towards the main spirit, the inner 
peace of order, I would even said - intuition. Inspiration can 
not inspire, it must wait. Most often it is spontaneous.



    It is known that in humans the most productive time for
creative work that morning or late evening rolling in
night. The biggest trouble this time of day is their
misuse. Units exactly know for myself -
'The morning I can productively be used to encode'
or 'the evening I start to paint a new picture to the party. " 
That Now, the time 23:15 on the clock and I understand that 
they are capable to share with you own observations.



    The second method - infiltration. It is logical
continuation of the first and is the clarification of the 
content of the of an object, a phrase which will fall on the 
paper. Otherwise speaking - to the idea sucked, like chicken 
leg quarter to the last rib to clearly understand - that 
outline, and that no.



    In these writers, this process is months, years and
is to gather information. In your case, the aspects
the scene is best to argue through analysis of viewpoints of 
those with whom you do not agree, and then present his own 
concept question. This is the classic exposition, and perhaps 
nothing new here can not, and here too it is not surprising, 
reflection reality in verbal form has never been easy, the

more so my texts rather than a reflection of reality, and
philosophizing with signs idealizirovaniya. I think so.


    In school, teach well, saying that the new idea must always
start with a red line, ie a new paragraph. Use the
limiting this offer. It comes in handy idea
structuring their ideas - as necessary to develop a plan
their next story. Like I said, it is advisable
do it for scenes or key ideas.


    Error of beginners is that they are the first
suggestions into the details, unnecessary detail
nagromazhdaya garden convention. Understand for themselves the 
main thing - should have exactly the story, not that anything 
other because as the article - is not novel.



    What povestovanie more attractive? In my opinion,
Its main feature is that the story, the unfolding of events
is linear, with no branches, and inserts. Dialogues, for those 
who loves it, still did not always appropriate to give, 
especially if no confidence in the reliability of the replicas. 
Definition Design text will not work when you write stareshsya 
difficult, and it is a You do not get. Immediately to achieve 
meaningful skills complicate text can not be achieved, at least 
learn to correctly express their feeling or what you see. I 
have it still do not turns out the way I wish that it happened.



    Attribute of writing copy for me is the background. His
the function of the music.


    If standing in front of you dilemma - what language to 
choose for writing the text, the more complicated venture than 
this I Recently seen. I uverenm that even a cursory knowledge of

foreign language, not having the skills of writing, at its
native language (in this case Russian), trying to express 
something the language of the scene seems to me quite 
problematic though would be to ensure that there is no 
certainty that you will find its reader ...



    Now that the conversation turned to translating and writing 
in a language scenes, in this regard are some considerations. 
Is it possible to translate the text, even though my accuracy 
in the English language? The answer is simple - no, impossible. 
No you can not! 


    In the brave ringtone wedged dictionary - in translation, 
the word nearly always responds to a column similar to the 
value of words in If reverse translation is the same, just have 
a whole page Russian words corresponds to one of foreign words. 
For authors the language of the stage one almost does not 
translate, mostly just try to blame for the right to express 
their own language. English for me is a means of communication, 
but it I do not write, though with greater desire than there is 
today moment, I could do it. Should I? I think that is not 
necessary. 


    When you translate it turns out that in fact is actually in 
English language, there is simply no tokens are exactly 
equivalent original Russian term. Therefore it is necessary to 
use sequence of concepts, each of which describes

foreign language is something with some precision.


    You can illustrate this as follows -
try to translate the text already translated into the language
the original and then try again to translate the text in reverse
order. Matches will have less and psychological
konstektualnaya filling will be quite strange, some
alien.


    In this case, no matter what words are on kontkstu we do not
used, meaning the translation and the original will inevitably
differ. All electronic translators sin the same -
they are not able to translate any text with accuracy, even up 
to 50 percent. In other words - the semantic spectrum of 
multilingual texts inevitably different; considered that the 
spectrum of transfer always already the spectrum of the 
original, but even this statement is not possible to prove.



    Any notion of a natural language can be defined
only through the aggregate of all other concepts of the 
language. T.e. some have an English word we choose, its exact

Semantic spectrum can not be transferred to the final
sequence of Russian words. And vice versa - Russian words in
there is no equivalent English words. Those judged to be
revealed deep philosophizing on a small place, if
they do not allow language interpretation.


    Impossibility of a literal translation follows from the deep
peculiarities of national cultures: if they wanted to impossible
otranslirovat correctly into English with a play on words.


    Gradually come to the conclusion that for all practical
significant cases involve the transfer is not an isolated text,
and the creation of a simulator for the language. And then, 
completely likely that we can realize our plans but in the

special rules. Who's supposed to - try it.


    From a formal point of view the translation of the meaning 
is always is lost - it turns out, as if to say Nemo, White

noise. The other part is replaced by a different sense, may be 
about close enough, but in no way matches (eg,

one Russian word 'should' is used to refer to two
different modalities of English - must to and have to), and go
then figure it out, that there freethinking sceners tried to 
express in his treatise ...



    In conclusion I would still emphasize that no
need to start writing if you did not plan this
deal, if you have this soul does not lie and have no idea. But I
'll Iskrina glad for you that I could introduce you to some
his views on the subject vyshezayavlenny.


    Ultimate truth really is all that
anything!
