自由職業(yè)者如何安排生活

        12:00

　　I head into Manhattan for a business lunch. I am frequently networking with magazine and book editors, many of whom I’ve known so long that they are also friends.

　　我出發(fā)前往曼哈頓區(qū)吃商務(wù)午餐。我經(jīng)常與一些雜志和圖書編輯合作，他們中的很多人我已認(rèn)識(shí)很長(zhǎng)時(shí)間了，他們同時(shí)也是我的朋友。

　　14:30

　　To keep my business going,I’m constantly sending out pitches,ideas for future articles. I need to read widely to make sure I’m not duplicating recent articles.

　　為保證我的事業(yè)持續(xù)發(fā)展，我會(huì)不斷地宣傳一些關(guān)于我未來文章的論點(diǎn)。我需要廣泛地閱讀以確保論點(diǎn)不會(huì)與近期其他文章“撞車”。

　　15:00

　　I return phone calls from the list I made earlier this morning. My assistant will continue working until 17:00 or so, but I often head into the city around 15:00 to meet with the chef, getting new recipes, asking questions and doing interviews for head note material.

　　我按照早晨列的單子回復(fù)電話。我的助手會(huì)繼續(xù)工作到下午五點(diǎn)左右，而我經(jīng)常會(huì)在下午三點(diǎn)左右出發(fā)到城里與廚師長(zhǎng)會(huì)面，取得新食譜，問些問題并做做訪談，為前言搜集材料。
