"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:
When writing stories these days, many people forget the importance of really getting out there and learning from real-life experiences. It's becoming less common for writers to take the time to talk to people, understand their lives, and gather the little details that make stories rich and believable. Imagine a journalist who wants to write about a small village. If they just use online research instead of actually visiting the village, talking to the locals, and observing their daily routines, their story won't feel as authentic or deep. Just like how even the tiniest stars add to the beauty of a galaxy, every small detail you learn from real interactions can enhance your writing. By spending time with people and observing closely, your stories will be richer and more compelling. This approach can help anyone, not just writers, to better understand and describe the world around them.
