At the beginning of this year Maurice Leblanc left the Norman coast to spend the winter in Nice: ""Je me souviens un peu tard que je t'avais promis mon adresse à Nice puisque tu ne te la rappelais pas. 18 rue Alberti villa Marie-Louise Nice. Tu m'excuseras aussi si je ne t'ai pas envoyé mes souhaits je travaille énormément le temps est merveilleux on cause autour de moi que te dire "" ""I remember rather late that I had promised you my address in Nice since you couldn't recall it. 18 rue Alberti villa Marie-Louise Nice. You'll also excuse me if I haven't sent you my wishes I'm working enormously the weather is wonderful people are chatting around me what can I tell you"" Though he had then published only one work he gives his opinion to his correspondent on a text the latter had sent him: ""Je te répèterai répondant ce que je t'ai dit pour ton style : il n'est pas assez travaillé tu écris un peu au hasard de ta plume on ne sent pas de nerfs là-dessous d'os de solide c'est du style de journal de lettre mais pas de style littéraire. Pourquoi n'essayes-tu pas de réfléchir sur chaque phrase avant de l'écrire."" ""I'll repeat in response what I told you about your style: it's not worked enough you write somewhat at random with your pen one doesn't feel any sinew underneath bone solidity it's newspaper style letter style but not literary style. Why don't you try to reflect on each sentence before writing it."" unknown
