8 years of writing book road 2013-6-119:06

Yesterday, the novel was only updated with two chapters, there was no idea, I couldn't start writing, and there was still a long vacuum period before the next outline plot point, how to write in this vacuum period and make it plump up became a difficult problem that must be faced. Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info And yesterday the editor also told me that this book will probably be on the shelves in mid-June, and I will start reading it for a fee. This makes it necessary for me to pile up the plot to a climax during this period, so that readers can continue to pay to read the following chapters after the novel is on the shelves. This is related to the issue of manuscript fees, if it is not well written, then there will be no readers to pay to read it, and then the book will fail.

I calculated that the book is still on the shelves for almost half a month, and 6,000 words are updated every day, that is, there are still 90,000 words. These 90,000 words are crucial, and this plot must not be sloppy. But yesterday I was stuck in the train of thought, there was no progress, and I only thought of the beginning of a new plot. I haven't started writing today, and after thinking about it for a long time, I finally burst out in my thoughts, connecting all the inspiration points together, and filling in the outline at once.

When I finished writing, I found that the outline of this plot alone had written more than 2,000 words, and this outline was expanded into specific content, at least 300,000 words could be written, and the worries were cleared at once, and the rhythm of this outline was very good, and the small climax points rose and fell one after another, piling up into the big climax point, and even I was very excited to write. This outline is very exciting.,It's not inferior to the books of those great gods.,The next thing is to see if I have the pen power to write this outline wonderfully.,If the pen is not enough.,It's only a waste of such a good plot.。 No matter what, I'll do my best to write, and if work delays my writing, then I'll consider quitting again, and I really want to fight for this book!

Looking back on this path, I have been walking for 8 years and I am close to success.

……

I don't remember the day or moment in 2005 when an idea popped into my head to write a novel for her as a 16th birthday present. At that time, I couldn't even write an 800-word essay, and suddenly I decided to write a 160,000-word novel, which was almost a fantasy. But the power of love is great, I really started to write, and began to conceive the first book in my life, and then when the book reached 120,000 words, she broke up with me, and that book died with my first love.

I'm glad that I'm a face-loving braggart person, when I was in my first year of high school, there were two lovely girls, Wu Xiao and Wang Xiaoju, sitting behind me. I often brag to them, saying that I am writing a huge masterpiece, a strange book, I have written 120,000, every time I see their adoring little eyes, a vanity rises from the bottom of my heart, probably because of too much bragging and retribution, so my first girlfriend will break up with me.

In order to be able to continue to have the capital to brag, I began to deliberately write something, and gradually it also produced some effects, I am very grateful to the Chinese teacher at that time, when I wrote the first essay, the writing requirement was to portray the character of the character, I only needed to write 800 words, but I wrote more than 5000 words. In those days, the whole person was completely immersed in it, and I didn't hear anything outside the window, and I still remember the title, which was called "Wu Xiao and Shengyang", which was written about Wu Xiao at my back table and Hu Shengyang at the same table. I couldn't submit that essay in time because I had been writing it for a long time, but I decided not to compress the word count and finish it completely, so I postponed it by a day. The last essay scored 95 points, the highest score in the history of the class, and was later read to the whole class as a model essay. So I started to have the capital to brag again......

In the winter of 06, the school held a sports meeting, I was very bored, opened Yang Wenfei's drawer, and took out a book from his desk, which was an online game novel, that book was actually written in general, but in my opinion at that time, it was amazing. Later, I went to Chen Baiyu's drawer and took out a copy of "Immortal and Demon War" written by Biluo Huangquan, this book was written better, and I was addicted to it all of a sudden, but that book only had the upper part and no lower part, and I didn't know that I could find this book on the Internet, which made me regret it for a long time.

Starting from the book "Immortal and Demon Wars" by Biluo Huangquan, I officially jumped into the vast sea of online novels, began to read books like crazy, and indulged in this wonderful world, and then I was in the third year of high school, relying on preparing for the college entrance examination, but I had no fighting spirit, anyway, my grades plummeted, so I simply played games every day, read novels and listened to songs, and bullied the girl I liked, her name was Yun. A month before the college entrance examination, I wrote a short story of more than 10,000 words and gave it to Yun, which was inspired by Jay Chou's song "Half Orc", which was actually a novel in my first author account later. After Yun received the novel, she asked me why I didn't work hard to prepare for the college entrance examination, and I said a very awesome sentence at the time, I said, "My future has nothing to do with the college entrance examination." ”

I remember this sentence until now, and now it seems that my future really has nothing to do with the college entrance examination. Now it's another year of college entrance examination, and when I don't see those young faces who are reading at night, I always think of that time, my bold words.

After the college entrance examination in '08, I finally had a lot of time to do what I loved. I started to write my first web novel at the beginning, which should be considered to be a real novel, no longer just for pickling girls like before. At that time, I didn't have a computer, and my family lived in the countryside, and there were no Internet cafes in the countryside, so I wrote the novel on paper every night, and then walked six miles of mountain roads to the broken Internet café in the small town the next day to write. That Internet café is called Huangsha Internet Bar, and now many book friends ask me why I always like to use the supporting role of "Huangsha" when writing books, and this is the reason. This Internet café used to be the Internet café where I came to play QQ with my first love a few years ago, and now the beautiful woman has gone, and this Internet café that used to feel good now looks dilapidated. The computer screen was stained with soot, and even children's snot, the space bar on the keyboard was broken, the number keys were incomplete, and sometimes a word could not be typed, so it had to be replaced with another word, or deleted. For example, "She made a happy sound", and if you type it out with that kind of keyboard, it might become "She made a happy moan", and suddenly it will become a ********, and that's how the book was written.

Finally September arrived, with a heart of anticipation and heavy luggage, I went to Changsha alone from my hometown to study at university, before that, I had only been to two cities, one was Shanghai, and the other was Chenzhou, the city-level city of my hometown, and every time I was accompanied by my family, not free enough. Now that I went to Changsha alone, I feel like a criminal in a heroic prison has been released, and I am free all of a sudden, and I can do things with love without being nagged by my family. At this time, the Internet cafes around the university are much better than the Huangsha Internet cafes, high-end atmosphere and high-grade, and it only takes two dollars an hour! I quickly got acquainted with my roommates, and every day we went to the Internet cafes to play, they played DOTA and played World of Warcraft, and I wrote novels on the side, writing until two or three o'clock in the morning, and when I was sleepy, I went back, climbed over the wall and went back to school to sleep.

It was very painful to write, and it took a lot of experience, but I couldn't sign the contract for a long time, and finally finished it with 200,000 words. In fact, that book now seems to be written by a primary school student, it is very bad, and it is strange that it can be signed. After that, I wrote a number of novels, some of which made you want to close the web page just by hearing the title. Later, I have been writing books at the starting point, from the main station to the starting point literature network, and then to the female frequency, in short, none of them succeeded. At that time, there were many problems, the plot was bad, the writing was bad, the title of the book was bad, in short, there were all five poisons. Later, I realized that my strength was not enough, so I began to practice my writing ability, and after three years of pen practice, in 2011, I was about to graduate from university, and I had to face all kinds of troubles in finding a job.

It was in this context that I felt that I had practiced my pen and could start writing novels again, so I wrote my first real online novel, that is, "Refrigeration", this book is an online game novel, the same type as the book I took out in Yang Wenfei's drawer in 06, maybe this is a coincidence in the dark. This book still continues the bad title that has always been bad, and people don't have the desire to click in and read it at all. I wrote this book for a purpose, that is, to see if I can rely on writing to make money, at that time I was very panicked, I was about to enter the society, I was very dazed, very anxious, I gave myself 100,000 words, if the book 100,000 words did not sign, then I will not write a book, I have not signed a contract for many years, it seems that it is really not suitable for writing, honestly find a job to do it first. Later, one afternoon, when I had written more than 90,000 words, I was ready to send out the last chapter, raise 100,000 words, and then go to find a job. But at that moment, I saw a text message on the site, and the editor asked me to sign a contract!

At that moment, I was very complicated in my heart, on the one hand, I was happy, and on the other hand, I was at a loss, and I didn't know if writing a book would bring me financial income. But it's always a good thing to sign a contract, and then the editor began to arrange recommendations, and the collection slowly rose. That book is a complete street book, written for half a year to more than 4,000 collections, and later wrote 600,000 words before it was put on the shelves for a fee, friendly on the shelves, because the editor felt that it was not easy for me to write for so long, how much can I pay for full attendance on the shelves. The book has received strong support from a small number of book friends, some book friends who are still in elementary school, even saved breakfast money to reward me, and the first place on the fan list is a junior high school student, who rewarded more than 500 yuan with New Year's money...... It was a really painful and happy time, the novel was not recognized by the mainstream, but there was a small group of die-hard readers who supported me to write that book to more than 1.2 million words, which was the first time I wrote a work of more than a million words. But at that time, the pressure was also very high, and I had a fight with my father over the matter of writing a book. Later, the family was too tight, after all, the book couldn't make money, I had to find a job, I had to support my family, my parents were old, and I had to pick up the burden, so the book stopped, and I went to find a job in web game development, and I often worked overtime, and the book couldn't continue to be updated, so I had to give up.

After half a year of class, I always have a longing for novels in my heart, which seems to be an innate mission that must be done, and the voice in my heart tells me every moment that I must write and cannot stop. Every day, every morning, every dusk, every time on the way to work, this voice is ringing. Every time I was scolded by my boss, the voice would get stronger, and eventually, when the game was at its worst, I chose to quit and I was going to write a book.

After I resigned, I put my hopes on the second book, which was later called "Fairy Poems", which I originally had high expectations, but I made a serious mistake, that is, it was too literary, because the reason why those readers liked "Refrigeration" before was because that book was a bit literary, in fact, the reason why mainstream readers didn't like it was because that book was very literary. When I arrived at this book, I was still in literature and art, and mainstream readers still didn't buy it, and the editor said that this book was wrong many times, and that it couldn't be written like this, but at this time I had no way out, I resigned, and I had to write it, and in the end, the results of that book were worse than the previous "Refrigeration"! After writing 130,000 words, I finally had no choice but to give up. At the same time, every day when I log in to the starting point, I always see advertisements for the web game I once participated in the development of the starting point, which was the most popular web game in China last year - "The Legend of Heroes", which was also exported to many countries and regions. The blow was twofold, I gave up developing the game and went home to write a book, only to fail in writing, and that game was an unprecedented success, and if I hadn't resigned, I don't know how much the year-end prize would be.

I seemed to be a little self-defeating and began to indulge in online games, I started to play "Sword Net 3" in an attempt to forget the pain in reality and indulge in the game. After playing for more than half a year, all the money I saved from my last job was spent, and my family urged me to find a job every day, and I felt that I couldn't waste time like this anymore. So I came out to look for a job again, and then I was targeted, and I wanted to find a librarian, a storekeeper, and write books while working. But in the end, I found the game industry, and this company is coincidental, the company that I used to go to the Internet café to play "Running Kart" when I was in high school, and it was a wonderful fate. Century Tiancheng is a Korean company, which respects employees' personal time and does not have to work overtime every day like in the previous job. I had a lot of time, so I started a new novel, which is now the book "Heroes' Prison".

The book didn't go well, I initially considered that the pseudonym eunuch "Huang Huayi" had written two books, but I didn't finish it, so I simply used my first author number to publish this book and start over as a newcomer. But because there is no signed book in my account, I am equivalent to no editor, and the beginning of this book at that time is also very bad, and I still didn't grasp the cool point of the online novel, and it was not liked by the public readers, and I wrote 100,000 words, but I didn't sign a contract!

This sense of blow is very devastating, my first "Refrigerated" is at least on the shelves, although the second "Fairy Poem" is not on the shelves, but at least it is signed, to this one, not even signed a contract!

I began to wonder what I couldn't do, and I finally sent the book to the editor of my current author account, because there were two signed books on this account, "Refrigerated" and "Fairy Poems", and the editor knew that I was the contracted author and would give me guidance. The editor gave me a lot of advice, saying that I had a problem at the beginning of the book and asked me to change it. At this time, I signed up for a writer's training and went to a two-day course.

There were authors from all over the country in that training class, as well as many editors from the starting point, and with so many exchanges, many of my previous mistakes are finally understood, and my editor Black Tea Da also went, and I communicated with him face-to-face, and did some discussions on some issues of my book, which benefited me a lot. Later, the top god of online novels, Xuehong, also went to the scene to teach and explain to us, and I also asked for his signature. On the last day of dinner, next to me sat one of the current high-level people from the beginning, Biluo Huangquan, which is the author of the book that made me addicted to the sea of online novels in 06 - "The Legend of the Immortal and Demon"! I told him that I only entered this line of work after reading your book, and he smiled sheepishly.

Fate is truly wonderful.

After taking the training course, I began to realize something, after all, I had written for so many years, just like in fantasy novels, I had some accumulation, and it was time to make a breakthrough. But at this time, I was too much, I deliberately catered to the public, catered to Shuangwen, Xiaobaiwen, abandoned my former style, wrote a complete Xiaobaishu beginning, showed it to the editor, and the editor said a sentence - "Let's do it first! As long as the plot can be written well." His meaning is obvious, that is, this beginning is better than the previous one, but it is still not very brilliant, and it will be sent out with a certain readership, but it will not be very successful.

I think this is very suspenseful, and I don't like this beginning myself, very reluctantly to popularize, cliché, follow the fashion, such a book starting point is a lot of money, I am not famous, not a god, why should readers come to see my book? I decided to change it again, I sent this beginning, together with the previous beginning, to a classmate of mine in college, he also likes to read online novels, I didn't tell him that I wrote the two beginnings, because then he can't use the most objective perspective to evaluate. I told him that I had seen two beginnings from somewhere else, that they had been written by someone else, what do you think? He told me that the first one was better, and the second one was too cliché and was everywhere.

I began to think about it again, in fact, I also prefer the first beginning, but that beginning is more niche and not accepted by the public. So I immediately started to change it, and when I was still at work, I hid from my boss and spent an hour changing the beginning, which is now the beginning of "Heroes' Prison". Then I showed it to the classmate, and this time, he said two words -- "Not bad." "Actually, I think this beginning is much better than the previous two, and I like it myself, so I sent it to the editor. The editor said: "Actually, your article is very well written, but why does the protagonist have to be in prison? Many readers don't like this kind of oppressive identity." If you really want to write like this, then you might as well set the main character as a great character, so that the reader will still have expectations. "The editor's words coincided with my thoughts, and my original assumption was that the protagonist himself was a terrible person, but he was arrested and put in prison and guarded.

This time, I thought I was ready, so I sent the book out! The book finally stopped abusing me anymore, it finally broke out of the cocoon and became a butterfly, and the results of only one month exceeded the results of my first book "Refrigeration" for half a year! This book is also on Sanjiang, there may be tens of thousands of books that have not been signed at the beginning of the week and signed a contract, you can apply for this Sanjiang list, but only 15 of them are selected every week, this is an honor that I have never won for so many years of writing, since the debut novel in 08, I began to apply for Sanjiang, and now this book has finally passed!

Of course, this book is only above average, the data is not very good, and there is still a big gap compared to those good books. But it's a very big step forward for me, and after so many years, it's finally starting to pay off! I'm sure that after this book is finished, I will go through another metamorphosis, and the next book will be even better!

It's been 8 years, and I want to thank myself, thank you that I'm still writing books, and I haven't given up after so many setbacks, how not easy it is for me, a lazy person! I also want to thank the small group of die-hard readers who have followed me all the way and did not abandon me, thank you for following me all the way, even if I have two eunuch books, you are still believing in me, in exchange for me to see the eunuch's book, it has long been operated by his whole family. Thank you to the readers who read my book now, thank you for being willing to read my book, and for opening the website every day to see if I am updated.

You may not know the story behind this, but I'm writing it down for you to see, and maybe you can get some out of it. A person may only need a certain moment in this life, an idea at a certain moment, whether the idea is immature or not, whether it can be realized or not, as long as you grasp it, it is possible to change your life.

I'm glad that at that moment in '05, an idea to write a novel for my first girlfriend flashed through my mind, and that idea might have been just one of the billions of ideas in my mind, but at that moment, it flashed light, a fleeting light, but I grasped the subtle thoughts of that moment that determined my long life. I truly believe that every moment, every second, can change the fate of people, just to see if you can catch the light that flashes in your mind at that moment.

What kind of light is flashing in your mind at this moment?
