我不敢自稱為「作家」。「家」這個字,有「專家」、「自成一家」之意。自覺只是一位「作者」而已,並未到「家」。
然而因為工作的緣故,經常會接觸到一些真正的作家。我發現一個很有趣的現象:作家都喜歡隱居。
隱居的意思,當然不是一個人住在孤島、深山那種,而是遠離市中心,住在一些較僻遠的地帶。由於私隱的問題,恕我不能公開列名舉例,只能不記名聊一聊。
最近相約一位女作家,傾談合作事宜。由於大家都忙,時間難約,地點也難就,於是我在電郵中問她:「你住在哪區?不如在你家附近找一個地方面談。」
結果她在電郵中回覆道:「東涌……我在隱居。」我失笑。在將軍澳上班的我,若然要去東涌,真的是由東北走去西南了!我只好答道:「那麼我們就約在迪士尼吧!」
另一位女作家,我最近頭一回冒昧致電給她,她卻說在船上,電話收得不清楚。哦,原來又是離島一族,住在大與山的。據我所知,住在此島的作家有不少……
回心一想,要我住東涌、大與山,實在不可能!我絕對是個屬於鬧市的人;這作家的「家」,我受不了。
