I
meant
that
I
was
going
to
work
at
my
writing
.
"
Her
face
fell
,
and
he
went
on
hastily
.
"
Don
’
t
misjudge
me
.
I
am
not
going
in
this
time
with
any
iridescent
ideas
.
It
is
to
be
a
cold
,
prosaic
,
matter
-
of
-
fact
business
proposition
.
It
is
better
than
going
to
sea
again
,
and
I
shall
earn
more
money
than
any
position
in
Oakland
can
bring
an
unskilled
man
.
"
"
You
see
,
this
vacation
I
have
taken
has
given
me
perspective
.
I
haven
’
t
been
working
the
life
out
of
my
body
,
and
I
haven
’
t
been
writing
,
at
least
not
for
publication
.
All
I
’
ve
done
has
been
to
love
you
and
to
think
.
I
’
ve
read
some
,
too
,
but
it
has
been
part
of
my
thinking
,
and
I
have
read
principally
magazines
.
I
have
generalized
about
myself
,
and
the
world
,
my
place
in
it
,
and
my
chance
to
win
to
a
place
that
will
be
fit
for
you
.
Also
,
I
’
ve
been
reading
Spencer
’
s
‘
Philosophy
of
Style
,
’
and
found
out
a
lot
of
what
was
the
matter
with
me
—
or
my
writing
,
rather
;
and
for
that
matter
with
most
of
the
writing
that
is
published
every
month
in
the
magazines
.
"
"
But
the
upshot
of
it
all
—
of
my
thinking
and
reading
and
loving
—
is
that
I
am
going
to
move
to
Grub
Street
.
I
shall
leave
masterpieces
alone
and
do
hack
-
work
—
jokes
,
paragraphs
,
feature
articles
,
humorous
verse
,
and
society
verse
—
all
the
rot
for
which
there
seems
so
much
demand
.
Then
there
are
the
newspaper
syndicates
,
and
the
newspaper
short
-
story
syndicates
,
and
the
syndicates
for
the
Sunday
supplements
.
I
can
go
ahead
and
hammer
out
the
stuff
they
want
,
and
earn
the
equivalent
of
a
good
salary
by
it
.
There
are
free
-
lances
,
you
know
,
who
earn
as
much
as
four
or
five
hundred
a
month
.
I
don
’
t
care
to
become
as
they
;
but
I
’
ll
earn
a
good
living
,
and
have
plenty
of
time
to
myself
,
which
I
wouldn
’
t
have
in
any
position
.
"
"
Then
,
I
’
ll
have
my
spare
time
for
study
and
for
real
work
.
In
between
the
grind
I
’
ll
try
my
hand
at
masterpieces
,
and
I
’
ll
study
and
prepare
myself
for
the
writing
of
masterpieces
.
Why
,
I
am
amazed
at
the
distance
I
have
come
already
.
When
I
first
tried
to
write
,
I
had
nothing
to
write
about
except
a
few
paltry
experiences
which
I
neither
understood
nor
appreciated
.
But
I
had
no
thoughts
.
I
really
didn
’
t
.
I
didn
’
t
even
have
the
words
with
which
to
think
.
My
experiences
were
so
many
meaningless
pictures
.
But
as
I
began
to
add
to
my
knowledge
,
and
to
my
vocabulary
,
I
saw
something
more
in
my
experiences
than
mere
pictures
.
I
retained
the
pictures
and
I
found
their
interpretation
.
That
was
when
I
began
to
do
good
work
,
when
I
wrote
‘
Adventure
,
’
‘
Joy
,
’
‘
The
Pot
,
’
‘
The
Wine
of
Life
,
’
‘
The
Jostling
Street
,
’
the
‘
Love
-
cycle
,
’
and
the
‘
Sea
Lyrics
.
’
I
shall
write
more
like
them
,
and
better
;
but
I
shall
do
it
in
my
spare
time
.
My
feet
are
on
the
solid
earth
,
now
.
Hack
-
work
and
income
first
,
masterpieces
afterward
.
Just
to
show
you
,
I
wrote
half
a
dozen
jokes
last
night
for
the
comic
weeklies
;
and
just
as
I
was
going
to
bed
,
the
thought
struck
me
to
try
my
hand
at
a
triolet
—
a
humorous
one
;
and
inside
an
hour
I
had
written
four
.
They
ought
to
be
worth
a
dollar
apiece
.
Four
dollars
right
there
for
a
few
afterthoughts
on
the
way
to
bed
.
"
"
Of
course
it
’
s
all
valueless
,
just
so
much
dull
and
sordid
plodding
;
but
it
is
no
more
dull
and
sordid
than
keeping
books
at
sixty
dollars
a
month
,
adding
up
endless
columns
of
meaningless
figures
until
one
dies
.
And
furthermore
,
the
hack
-
work
keeps
me
in
touch
with
things
literary
and
gives
me
time
to
try
bigger
things
.
"
"
But
what
good
are
these
bigger
-
things
,
these
masterpieces
?
"
Ruth
demanded
.
"
You
can
’
t
sell
them
.
"
"
Oh
,
yes
,
I
can
,
"
he
began
;
but
she
interrupted
.
"
All
those
you
named
,
and
which
you
say
yourself
are
good
—
you
have
not
sold
any
of
them
.
We
can
’
t
get
married
on
masterpieces
that
won
’
t
sell
.
"
"
Then
we
’
ll
get
married
on
triolets
that
will
sell
,
"
he
asserted
stoutly
,
putting
his
arm
around
her
and
drawing
a
very
unresponsive
sweetheart
toward
him
.
