The selected letters by Anton Chekhov

On march 28, 1886 Anton Chekhov feels that his writings need justification in the smallest way as well as he feels the lack of confidence in his works and himself.
On October 27,1888, he thinks that an artist or writer (a literary artist) should write with what he understands, and by doing that he or she needs to observe, choose, guess, and compound all that he or she understands to make the question of understanding the origin.
Out of the approach of the solution of a problem and the approach of the correct formulation of a problem, the "artist" should and is required and demanded to use the "the correct formulation of a problem" to write a successful novel or story. Also he feels that slow publications of books, stories, or novels, are equal to the satisfaction that the writer wants to feel when finished. To emphasize the story, the writer needs to use the background and characters strongly and vibrantly.
