A
friend of mine was fond of drawing horse. He drew
the horses very well,but he
always
began the tail. Now it is the Western rule to
begin at the head of the horse, that
is
why
I
was
surprised.
It
struck
me
that
it
could
not
really
make
any
difference
whether the
artist begins at the head or the tail or the belly
or the foot of the horse,
if
he really knows his business. And
most great artists who really know their business
do

not follow
other people's make their own rules. Every one of
them does his
work in a way peculiar to
himself; and the peculiarity means only that he
finds it more
easy
to work
in that way.
Now
the
very
same
thing
is
true
to
literature.
And
the
question,
shall
I
begin?
or somewhere else.
That is, you are not yet experienced enough to
trust to your own
powers. When you
become more experienced you will
never
ask the question, and I think that you will often
begin at the tail --that is to say,
you
will write the end of the story before you have
even thought of the beginning.
