Summary

This quote suggests that aspiring and experienced novelists would greatly benefit from immersing themselves in the real world and actively engaging in covering various aspects of society such as local politics, sports, culture, and crime. By exposing themselves to diverse experiences and writing about them within tight deadlines, novelists can expand their perspectives, gather valuable insights, develop stronger storytelling skills, and add more authenticity to their work. This emphasis on real-world engagement advocates for a more hands-on approach to writing, encouraging writers to go beyond their comfort zones and draw inspiration from the vibrant tapestry of human life.
