Author's Biography
- Alan Deutsch, August 2016, Shanghai
Alan is a youthful, witty young author at 12 going on 13 years old. He is inspired by writing, and strives to make pieces that he can admire himself. He believes that life is a journey and we should cherish each and every step of the way.
Alan began his journey in the mysterious place of Houston, Texas. He then slowly worked his way East and lived in New Jersey for the majority of his life. Finally, he made the long trip all the way to Shanghai, China, where he currently lives with his mom. Alan also believes that one's journey is not solely made from where we have been, where we are, and where we are going. Instead he believes that it's the little things that shape us into who we are. I quote Alan himself: "Life is not comprised of what we know, it's about what we don't know. The things you do know, like where you live, what grade you're in, and how old you are make up a big chunk of what you are, but not who you are. It's our little hobbies and activities that truly transform everyone into a unique human being."
For Alan, writing has always been a passion that he has grown fond of over the years. He's definitely not done with improving as a writer and a person in general, no one is.
作者简介
- Alan Deutsch / 狄艾伦，xwgong翻译
写于2016年8月上海
艾伦是一个充满生机和风趣的年轻作者，他很快就要13岁了。写作给予他灵感的鼓舞，他也努力创造出能够让自己欣赏的作品。他认为生命是一个旅程，我们应该珍惜旅程中的每一步。
艾伦在德克萨斯州休斯敦的神秘之地开始了他的旅程。然后，他渐渐东移，并在新泽西度过了他的大部分生活。后来，他穿越了漫长的旅程，一路到中国上海，如今他在那里和他妈妈一起生活。
艾伦还认为，一个人的旅程不仅仅是以我们去过哪里，在哪里，和要去哪里组成。他反而相信是一些很小的事情把我们塑造成为谁。我引用艾伦自己说的：“生活不是由我们所知道的组成，它是关于我们不知道的。你所知道的事情，就像你住的地方，你上几年级，以及你的年龄，都构成你很大的一部分，但却不构成你真正是谁。而恰恰是我们的一些小小的爱好，活动，才能真正把每个人都变成一个独特的人。”
对于艾伦，写作成了这些年来他渐渐喜欢上的一种激情。无论是作为一名作家，还是作为一个人，他都绝对还没有完成他的进步，没有任何人完成了。
