TY - JOUR AB - THE young man who loves books and has literary aspirations generally tries for a post on a newspaper staff. He is duly warned by the veterans:—“Daily journalism is no more the road to literature than a county attorneyship is the road to the English Woolsack. You will dissipate in small change the talents you require for writing books. This is not a sculptor's studio, but a machine bakery. The art you lavish on the daily cakes will vanish when they are eaten. Why not stay in a steady routine job that does not compromise your imagination, and write in your spare time the things you want to write?” VL - 2 IS - 6 SN - 0024-2535 DO - 10.1108/eb011911 UR - https://doi.org/10.1108/eb011911 AU - POWER WILLIAM PY - 1930 Y1 - 1930/01/01 TI - Up from Journalism T2 - Library Review PB - MCB UP Ltd SP - 317 EP - 322 Y2 - 2024/09/19 ER -
