Chapter 601: What is more terrifying than fear

Anyway, the reversal is that "the greatest fear of mankind is the fear of the unknown." ”

Or everywhere there are descriptions of the "unspeakable".

To put it bluntly, isn't it Lovecraft's YY? However, speaking of which, this writer of English aristocratic temperament really gradually wrote his own style from Edgar Allan Poe's little fan, with some baroque words, a lot of descriptions and even more mental descriptions.

insisted on a storytelling style that was neither readable nor friendly, but gradually forged a path of its own.

Especially the Cthulhu system that he later constructed, which was like pouring another bucket of black ink into the dark forest-like universe.

"You think science is important, don't you? Yes, that's right, I admit you're right. But at the same time, I tell you that it doesn't matter. ”

Thinking of this, Pan Xiaoqing laughed, "God's TM is not important, it is meaningless, and it really makes sense." ”

If she could write freely like a psychopath, like Lovecraft, obsessed with using the old English grammar you like, I don't know if any readers would read her stuff.

Keeping pace with the times, Pan Xiaoqing thought of Grace's words again, which sounded like advice!

Finally, am I also someone who needs to find a way forward in life with the advice of others?' Thinking of this, Pan Xiaoqing felt that she was just like the authors of the "chicken soup" articles of the self-media that she didn't look down on, and she was "The weather is so good, why are you upset?" ”

What the hell is there to be happy about.

These chaotic thoughts are like lying on the windowsill waiting for an opportunity to burrow into the cold air in the room, and if the owner accidentally allows the window to peek through the slightest crack, the cold and humid air will flood in, making you shiver in the room.

Pan Xiaoqing turned on the computer, shook his head, and pressed the power button, intending to write something today anyway, or at least determine the topic to be written about next.

As for Grace's words on the phone, "keep up with the times and think about what is an effective job in the current Internet age", she didn't want to think of a word, but it was like walking inevitably with your feet on the ground.

It's not easy not to think about it.

So Pan Xiaoqing walked to the bathroom, planning to wash his face with cold water first, and then think about what he wanted to write.

The cold water flowed over his face, Pan Xiaoqing's spirit recovered a little, and his concentration seemed to have recovered a lot.

She walked over to the bookshelf, picked up a copy of "Blood Plague" and flipped through it for a while, then put the book back away.

Then she picked up a copy of "The Secret of Alchemy" and leaned against the bookshelf and flipped through it for a while.

"Blood Epidemic" is a non-fiction literary work, Pan Xiaoqing has read it many times, not only the content of the whole book shocked her, but also the way of writing Pan Xiaoqing also appreciated it very much, so half of this book is read as literature, half as a learning textbook, Pan Xiaoqing read it no less than three times.

As for the book "The Secret of Alchemy", Pan Xiaoqing doesn't remember what year he bought it and put it on the shelf, the dark fuchsia spine is slightly dusty, this "The Secret of Alchemy" published by the Commercial Press is a hardcover version of the book, the price is not expensive, the red book cover and the bronzing font are very in line with the theme of the book.

After reading for a while, Pan Xiaoqing suddenly thought about whether it was possible to write non-fiction literature in some occult way.

This idea was a little exaggerated, and when it broke into Pan Xiaoqing's mind, Pan Xiaoqing also felt that he was probably crazy.

This is not her way of creating, on the contrary, Liuyun may think that this idea is good, but Liuyun is Liuyun, and two authors are two different beings in two different worlds, and no matter how close they are, one author cannot help the other author complete his creation.

And if they don't do it well, they will affect each other, so that no one is as good as when they were originally working alone.

Therefore, Pan Xiaoqing has always believed that it is not appropriate for the author and the author to be together, and there will always be someone who will sacrifice something for this relationship, which may be intangible or temporary.

After all, there are some couples in the world who are also authors, and they have a good relationship, and after they got married, their respective writing paths have also been smooth sailing.

But there are also many negative examples, and there are more parties who gradually reduce their time and energy in creation in order to support the other party, and become another person's editor.

Pan Xiaoqing believes that it is more appropriate for the author to be lonely, and there is not necessarily anything good about two lonely authors being together.

Now that she has a new idea, let's try to write something, she has not thought of a good subject for almost a month, and if she continues like this, she really doubts that she will not be able to write well again.

Writing a column is still different from writing, and I don't know how Liuyun would give up writing and rewriting those travelogues and columns, but speaking of which, that guy's luck is really good, others go to Istanbul for a trip, and at most they will post some photos and travelogues on the travel APP, talk about what is delicious or what is fun, the writing is better or more willing to put effort into it, write a little bit about the local customs and history and culture, so that the grade of the whole article will go up, and the number of people who read it will follow.

Liuyun has done all these aspects, and Pan Xiaoqing has read some of Liuyun's previous writings, not that there is anything bad, in Pan Xiaoqing's opinion, Liuyun's has a more obvious translation taste, and later the two have had a lot of literary exchanges, Pan Xiaoqing noticed that most of the writers Liuyun likes are not local writers, and he has been madly obsessed with Latin American literature since childhood, and then read a lot of books by Western-Chinese authors, and there is a year of exchange experience in the middle, Therefore, his writing has a hazy sense of neither Chinese nor foreign.

Pan Xiaoqing found that she was not the only one who felt this way, and in the comment area of several parts serialized by Liuyun on the Internet, many readers had this kind of comment, and some people said: "This book has the feeling of reading a world masterpiece." ”

Someone else commented, "Probably only the author himself knows what he is writing." ”

Pan Xiaoqing speculated that Liuyun should have felt very uncomfortable when he saw this, so his last part ended in a hurry without finishing the serialization.

This may have been the result of injuries he sustained after moving from physical author to web author.

An arrogant author who has some achievements in his own right has hit the street in online literature, and no one will be comfortable with such a gap in his heart.
