"in the field" can mean many things but in our usage it means just what is says - you're out there away from everything.

All the questions you ask are very broad - and any answer you get will be based on a specific.

You try and take that "specific" and put it in a broad chapter - you will look like an idiot.

Most successful writers on a subject "lived the life" or did in depth research - like hang out with the real deal guys. They don't get it by asking a few questions over the internet.
