many a young person tells me翻译

Many a young person tells me he wants to be a writer.I always encourage such people,but I also explain that there's a big difference between"being a writer"and writing.In most cases these inpiduals are dreaming of wealth and fame,not the long hours alone at a typewriter."You've got to want to write,"I say to them,"not want to be a writer."

The reality is that writing is a lonely,private and poor-paying affair.For every writer kissed by fortune there are thousands more whose longing is never rewarded.When I left a 20-year career in the U.S.Coast Guard to become a freelance writer(自由撰稿人),I had no prospects at all.What I did have was a friend who found me my room in a New York apartment building.It didn't even matter that it was cold and had no bathroom.I immediately bought a used manual typewriter and felt like a genuine writer.

答案：

许多年轻的人告诉我,他希望成为一位作家.我一直鼓励这样的人,但我也解释说,有一个很大的区别“作为一个作家”和写作.在大多数情况下,这些个人是梦寐以求的财富和名利,不长时间,仅在打字机.“你要不想写,”我对他们说,“不想成为一个作家”.

现实情况是,写作是孤独的,私人和穷人付费的事.每一个作家,亲吻了财富有成千上万更多的向往,是从来没有回报.当我留下了20-年的职业生涯中在美国的海岸警卫队成为一个自由撰稿人（自由撰稿人）,我已没有前途可言.我所做的已是朋友谁发现我的房间,在一个新的纽约公寓大楼.它甚至没有的事,这是冷战并没有浴室.我立即买了用手动打字机,并认为像一个真正的作家.
