MICE: How much should I write in a day?
Hemingway: The best thing to do is to just stop when you’re writing a lot, and when you have your head on what’s next. If you write like that every day, you will never get stuck while writing a novel. This is the most valuable tip I can give you. Be sure to remember

‘Doing it to the end’ is the most important thing. It is necessary to continue somehow, to the end.

In this regard, I would like to introduce the story Ernest Hemingway told a young aspiring writer who recklessly visited him on the beach. Hemingway’s advice for ‘doing it all the way through’.

Hemingway emphasized to aspiring writers that writing must stop when it is well written. This advice is different from what you expected, so you may be a little puzzled, but if you think about it, you will nod your head. Whether it’s writing or anything else, the important thing is all ‘long-term battles’. It is not something that can be achieved by working hard for a day or two. So the win depends on whether you can last long. Hemingway said that.

“The best way is to just stop when the writing is fluent, and when you have your head on what’s next. If you write like that every day, you’ll never get stuck while writing a novel.”
This is what he said, ‘I have to write every day’.

Hemingway also said:
“Until you start writing again the next day, you have to stop thinking and stop worrying. Only then will your subconscious mind keep running.
Conversely, if you consciously think and ponder on writing, your brain eventually gets tired before it even starts.”

As Hemingway said that the most difficult thing in a novel is ‘writing to the end’, the most difficult thing for us is ‘writing to the end’. Whatever field it is.

Most of all, it is important to ‘do what I am doing to the end’.
