Instructions and leave of absence
On the weekend, it was supposed to be the time to save manuscripts, but unfortunately I sat in front of the computer all day, didn't play games or swiped my phone, took it seriously, and wrote 410 words in six hours.
The newcomer's problems began to emerge slowly.
At present, the biggest difficulty is not speed, I have gone from an average of 400 words an hour when I first started coding words, to today, five months later, I can stabilize at a speed of about 1000 per hour, which shows that practice makes perfect.
But the premise of this is that all the plots have been thought through. And now the plot has become the biggest problem.
Writing a book is not a temporary idea, but writing this book is really a temporary idea.
At the beginning, I was afraid that the newcomer would not be able to sign the contract, or that I would not be able to get a good recommendation after signing the contract, so I planned to ignore it for now, write a million words, and move the editor with perseverance, proving that I can make up for my shortcomings with diligence, so that the next book can have better results.
Before I posted this book, I had written a detailed outline of nearly 80,000 words in my next book, which is also a game, but not a traditional online game.
The reason why I chose to use traditional online games to pave the way was because I was playing WOW nostalgic clothes at the time, and I thought that this was not the legendary local material?
As a level 60 Blackstone Mountain, a tyrant at the gate of the main city, a level 70 gladiator, and a full-class proficient veteran player who casually fights 2400 in the passerby arena after level 80, although it has reached level 100 AFK, but thinking about writing a broken online game is not hand-to-hand?
In addition, I naively thought that this type was better water, a row of character attributes of hundreds of words, a system message of a few hundred words, and NPC casual nonsense is a chapter, want to write a million words is not the same as playing?
I planned it well.
However, everyone has also seen the facts, the last of the above points was not used, and it was a loss of hundreds of millions.
The most important thing is that people are not as good as the sky, and I originally wanted to sign a million words first, but I sent more than 10,000 words to the station, and all the way to Sanjiang to push the shelves, and now the starting point is more than 2,700. QQ Reading also has 60,000 collections, but unfortunately I can't see subscriptions.
For a pure newcomer who has been in the industry for five months and four days, it is simply a fantastic start. I'm so content.
But after writing 700,000 words now, the various problems of newcomers have finally appeared.
One is the subject matter itself.,Now it seems,Traditional online games are really written more and more backwards.,Because the world framework has been set to death.,There's no way to change the map.,Either keep repeating.,Or write it blindly.,Plus the online game I've seen so far.,There are only two books in total.,One is full-time.,One is a short story that I forgot my name N years ago.。
By the way, it's that short story.,Let me mistakenly think that the game cabin is with a keyboard.,The game helmet is a holographic virtual.,So everyone blames the setting.,Just blame the author who I don't even know the name haha.。
The other problem is my own, the moment I received the signing station, I started to take the book seriously, and it took a few days to make the outline and setting, the outline was very detailed, enough to support me to write 3 million words, but the problem is that there is content to write about, it does not mean that the content is good.
When you're a reader, even if there's only one cool point in a book's 1 million words, it doesn't matter, it's a big deal to read db, skip over ten lines at a glance, and come back to order a few chapters when it's good-looking.
However, after becoming an author, I can't wait for something cool in every line. For fear of one more nonsense, the reader will be impatient.
Looking at it this way, my original outline is just a piece of, purely for the sake of writing an outline, the story can indeed be rounded, but there is no cool point, there is no fun, what is the point of writing it.
By the time I realized the problem, I had already written hundreds of thousands of words, so I began to revise the outline, or rather cut the outline.
But after cutting it, I found that there was nothing left......
So, after 500,000 words, I basically started to conceive the plot the moment I turned on the computer every day, and after the epidemic, the work of the unit was piled up, and I had to sleep in the middle of the night every day, which made me physically and mentally exhausted, and I was able to keep changing, which is really thankful.
However, today, it may really be the straw that breaks the camel's back, even if I already have the general content of the next chapter in my head, but I can't write it alive or dead, because I really don't know how to write the next few million words.
It's really easy to just make up the number of words, the ruins come a few more times, each layer of the secret realm is written in detail, the battlefield arena is divided, the wild boss is contested, hundreds of professional leagues, and it's no problem to write 10 million words.
But is that really good-looking?
Judging from the data subscribed to so far, the battle process in the game is the most useless, Su Ying is more attractive than a big battle when she says two nonsense words, you don't care about the game at all, you just like to watch other people's wives!
Really have a taste for style.
So in order to cater to the market, the book has gradually become an urban daily text dressed in the guise of an online game.
Experienced readers have actually seen that the framework of this book is very simple, the characters in the first half of the online game grow up, and the world fights for hegemony; Won the championship in the second half of the professional league.
But at the moment, writing about the league is thankless, and not many people like to read it.
After hesitating for a long time, I finally decided to reorganize the outline, and all the plots and cool points were concentrated on the online game hegemony and daily character interaction, rather than boring games. This way, the total number of words will be less than expected, but the content will be a little more concise.
So, I would like to ask you to take a day or two off and use this weekend to reorganize the outline and update it by 8 a.m. on June 2 at the latest.
The first break after five months.
Helpless.
Bow and apologize.

……
In the end, I couldn't hold back 500 words for six hours, and it only took me half an hour to write this nearly 2,000-word leave note, and I really convinced myself.
