写作的意义是什么？

简单地说，把你在微信上说的话组织起来放到一起就是一篇文章。组织的过程就是让它有头有肚子有腿有脚，这样一篇文章就有了生命，会成为你生命的一部分，否则它们就是碎片，散落在茫茫微信群中，像你失落的孩子，逐渐也没有了气息，你不觉得你对不起这些孩子吗？把想法变成生命，这就是写作的意义。

写作是99%为自己，1%为别人。别人爱看不看，有那么一个人看就可以了。

你写多了，结成集子。就不是碎片了。当然，在众多的“集子”中，可能又消失了，但是你又出了一个集子，然后你又出一个，但是归根结底，是你自己的生命，不是别人的。

举例来说，今年的诺贝尔文学奖获得者法国女作家：

Ernaux, 82, was given the 2022 award “for the courage and clinical acuity with which she uncovers the roots, estrangements and collective restraints of personal memory”, the Nobel committee said.

Born in Normandy in 1940, Ernaux has written 23 books, with her work translated into 36 languages. She has frequently drawn on her own experiences in her writing, and is now considered one of the pioneers of autofiction, a term used to describe autobiographical novels.

Ernaux’s career began with the publication of Les armoires vides (Cleaned Out), which drew on her abortion at the age of 23. In 1984 she received the Renaudot prize, France’s most prestigious award after the Goncourt, for La place (A Man’s Place), a portrait of her father.

The book marked her choice to embrace a minimalist style, which she labelled “écriture plate” or flat writing. This literary approach underpinned her goal to remain as objective as possible in investigating her past as she drew on memories as well as diaries and old photographs — a method described as “auto-socio-biography” by sociologist Isabelle Charpentier.
