101 On Writing (66) "Writing a Book is a Feeling"

The 101 series is now 66 posts, some friends think it's very good, inspired a lot, and some friends don't agree with it, I think writing a book is not an analysis to analyze and write well, the real god won't think too much about things, what is written is a dream in my heart, that's a feeling. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

For example, many great gods ask him to talk about his writing experience, and he can hardly say a systematic theory, but people just write stories beautifully.

101 This post, I want to talk about the mysterious thing of "feeling".

In the writing book "Bestseller Writing Skills", the concept of "feeling" is mentioned, and the author believes that there are thousands of writing skills, and no author can master all the skills, and it is impossible to use them all in one book, so how to tell a story depends on a "feeling".

"Feeling" may make you take flashbacks, may make you intermittent, and may be suspenseful step by step......

101 agrees with the concept of "feeling", newcomers write books by "feeling", 5 years ago 101 didn't understand anything, although the book was written, but the characters were full of emotions, it was the "feeling" that made me integrate into my own story world, and I was very involved in writing.

Later, I understood a lot of the principles of writing, and I also carefully cut out some paragraphs and plots word by word, but the ingenuity was strong, but the feeling was lost.

The things written in this paragraph seem to use a lot of skills, but the characters are fake, the plot is fake, and it is difficult to impress people.

At that time, 101 was very confused, and when I turned out what I had written before, I felt that the fairy spirit was very strong, but now I write without soul and emotion, and I thought I was regressing.

Later, after pondering for a long time, I finally figured out the trick.

A basketball player who plays wild ball, he is very powerful at the beginning, although his movements are not professional, but he is well-known in amateur circles. At this time, a professional coach took a fancy to him, and let him practice basic movements every day, starting from dribbling and shooting, and after practicing for a while, he came on the court, and as a result, he couldn't play.

This is the same situation as when we learn to write, because we know too much and forget the "feeling" of writing books in the first place.

--------

Therefore, 101 believes that the bottleneck to be broken at this time is to get back the "feeling". Those ingenuity and skills should be considered when conceiving, but when you put down the pen, you should focus on the emotions of the characters and the world of the story. Then, after writing, it switches to the reader's perspective to see where there is a problem, and when it comes to analysis, it switches to ingenuity and skill.

In other words, ingenuity and skill allow the author to find the "feeling" when there is no "feeling", and to be able to analyze the problem when there is a problem in the novel.

But without ingenuity and skill, the "feeling" is illusory, today there is no tomorrow, and even some writers are so painful that they drink and smoke to find those "feelings", or they stop writing without "feelings".

The last thing to say is that all the ingenuity and skills must be integrated into the "feeling" of one's own writing, a mature old writer, is extremely sensitive to words, and at a glance, you can know what the "feeling" is.

And this is that practice makes perfect!

Look, the basketball player who used to play wild ball, after a long period of basic training, is now starting to dominate the court again, and he is playing better than before, and there is more room for growth......
