Today in Labor History August 14, 1846: The authorities jailed Henry David Thoreau for refusing to pay his taxes in protest of the Mexican War. Aside from this early act of American civil disobedience and war resistance, Thoreau also wrote, “Walden.” His essay, “Civil Disobedience,” influenced generations of activists and writers, including Gandhi, Martin Luther King, Tolstoy, Yeats, Proust, Hemingway, Upton Sinclair and Martin Buber.

How to take the struggle out of getting started on difficult tasks? The best way is always to stop when you are going good and when you know what will happen next. If you do that every day, you will never be stuck. #writing #productivity #hemingway https://www.inc.com/jessica-stillman/use-hemingway-trick-to-supercharge-your-morning-productivity.html

"You have always written before and you will write now. All you have to do is write one true sentence. Write the truest sentence that you know. ' So finally I would write one true sentence, and then go on from there." ~ Ernest #Hemingway

Today in Writing History July 21, 1899: Ernest Hemingway was born. Hemingway was a journalist, novelist and short story writer. He won the Nobel Prize in literature in 1954. Hemingway was famous for his “square, tight” prose, which was influenced by his experience as a journalist and as a soldier. He was an ambulance driver during World War I and he volunteered on the Republican side in the Spanish Civil War. Of his stories, my two personal favorites are “For Whom the Bell Tolls,” and “Old Man and the Sea.” I recently watched the documentary “Spanish Earth,” made in 1937, filmed during and about the Spanish Civil War. Hemingway narrated it, along with Orson Welles. He also cowrote the script, along with another favorite writer of mine, John Dos Passos.

Oggi nel 1899 nasceva Ernest Hemingway. Secondo la biografia 'Hemingway's Boat' di P. Hendrickson, durante la II Guerra Mondiale, lo scrittore usava il suo peschereccio, il Pilar, per dare la caccia ai sottomarini tedeschi nei Caraibi.
Essendo morto molti anni dopo, nel 1961, è ovvio che non ne abbia mai trovato uno

“In any art you’re allowed to steal anything if you can make it better.”

Just finished Ernest #Hemingway - A Moveable Feast.

Dear me, he was a vicious little gossip, even so many years after the facts, wasn't he? He's dissecting some people and making saints our of others.
I couldn't get into it at first, I have a very different rhythm in reading and thinking as Hemingway, but when I started to read it out loud (after advice by a friend) it was a very enjoyable read, which makes me like Hemingway even less as a person, but not as a writer.

As demonstrated by Hemingway you need to sit outdoors to write on a typewriter. If you don’t have one or don’t get along with loose sheets you will need a wordprocessor laptop with an e-ink screen to see wth you’re doing

#Introduction part 2!

I am #pansexual and #genderqueer AND I also see myself as a #LGBTQ alley since I've been able to live a very privileged life. I read voraciously (I’m up to nearly 60 books this year per #GoodReads) across all genres. I get brilliant ideas for blogs and newsletters like the year I waned to read nothing but #Hemingway, #Fitzgerald, and their contemporaries but reader, that blog never happened. I'm learning how to swim after many years of being out of the pool.

3/7
Hilariously mentioned early on are #writers that #write passionately about boxing but don't really do it - Ernest Hemingway, Joyce Carrol Oates, Norman Mailer. The #Hemingway week at the gym - ouch😫 Also there's a beneficial discussion of #masculinity - the ideas of gyms or sports becoming diluted (by women's participation) and the idea that masculinity needs to be carefully guarded - is proof it shouldn't be preserved.

Today in Labor History June 16, 1937: The Trotskyist POUM, a significant constituent of the Spanish Republican anti-fascist forces (and the group with which George Orwell fought) was outlawed and its militants persecuted by the counter-revolutionary Stalinists and the Republic's police, thus making both the Republic, and the Stalinists, more vulnerable to the fascists, who ultimately defeated them. Orwell had to flee because of this betrayal by the Stalinists. For a good fictionalization of the Spanish war against the fascists, and the POUM's and anarchist's betrayal by the Stalinists, see Ken Loach's Tierra y Libertad. Also, Orwell himself wrote about it in his excellent book, “Homage to Catalonia.” Another great book from this war is Hemingway’s, “For Whom the Bell Tolls.”

@tomstafford Cool hypothesis! 😎 I don’t think the datasets have been made public. Could try it with authors that have a distinct style but no fan fiction. #Hemingway? #SalmanRushdie?
