When I start getting close to the end of a novel, something registers in the back of my mind for the next novel, so that I usually don't write, or take notes. And I certainly don't begin. I just allow things to percolate for a while.

当我开始接近一部小说的结尾时,我的脑海中就会出现下一部小说要写的东西,所以我通常不写作,也不做笔记。我当然不会开始。我只是让东西渗一会儿。
