Chapter 27 Pseudonyms and Contributions

When the June summer breeze blows to the small town of Tower Hill, Yan Luo's novel is finally finished!

After satisfying the word "finish" at the end of the novel, Yan Luo's next thing to think about is how to get the novel published.

There are two options in front of Yan Luo, mail it directly to a publishing house to apply for publication, or hand it over to a fiction magazine for serialization, but no matter which choice is for Yan Luo, he doesn't know how to operate.

At this time, the novelist Ding Shihua stood up.

"It's definitely going to be serialized!"

Ding Shihua's tone is quite affirmative: "The publication of novels may sell well, or they may hit the streets, and more importantly, the unknown ones will not attract the attention of the publishing house at all, they may not read it or not, let alone publish!" Well, even if they help you publish, they will generally choose to take a share, and the price will be very low! ”

"Serialization is different.,If the novel is well written, send a few more next time.,If it's not well written, it's a big deal for you to cut it.,So it's possible to pass a little more.,More importantly, if the serialization is successful, you can talk about publishing it again.,When the time comes, the share can be a little higher!"

What Ding Shihua said is so reasonable, Yan Luo, who knows nothing about publishing, can't help but be moved, since this is the case, then choose the novel to be serialized!

"But which magazine should I apply for?"

The serialization of the novel is confirmed, but a new question arises, there are so many domestic novel magazines, which one should I choose? The main body of "Youth" magazine is teenagers, and the novels published are mostly the youthful emotions of teenagers and girls, but there is no place for novels.

"Heart novel!"

Ding Shihua confirmed.

"New novel? What new novel? Yan Luo was puzzled.

"It's "Heart Novel"!"

Ding Shihua explained: "This is the name of a novel magazine, as the name suggests, it means to write novels with heart and manage the magazine with heart!" The readers of this magazine are mainly young people, and the authors who contribute to the novels are also young people, and it seems that the oldest is less than 30 years old, so this magazine is new and vibrant! ”

More importantly, the founder of this magazine is Zhang Liming, a representative of young writers! That's a trend-setting figure, and he is the favorite writer of today's young people! ”

After listening to the introduction of Ding Shihua, Yan Luo was also curious about this "Heart Novel", if it is really like Ding Shihua, then her novel is indeed very suitable for publication here.

"Poetry and painting, how do you understand so many things?"

Yan Luo had never felt that Ding Shihua was so knowledgeable as she was now, she was simply omniscient, and it seemed that she could always know how to solve any problem she raised, any trouble she encountered.

"Hey, hey!"

In this regard, Ding Shihua scratched his short hair proudly: "I don't know, maybe I've read a lot of novels, so I naturally know!" ”

Now that the magazine for the serialization of the novel has been confirmed, Yan Luo began to look up the email address of the editor of "Heart Novel" on the Internet, but just as she was about to send the email, another question came to mind.

In the past, it was just enough to publish a short story in the magazine "Youth", and you could use your own real name, but now you are publishing a novel! Could it be that he still signed his name with a big grin?

Looks like I'm going to take a pen name!

Yan Luo sat quietly at the desk, holding his cheeks in his hands and making a contemplative gesture, it was really troublesome to come up with a name or something!

Yan Luo, who thought about it for a while, still had no idea at all, thinking about his mother's pen name, it was like water and sad, how apt, how literary and artistic, just listening to the name could feel that kind of beautiful sadness.

How sad can you be? Just like a river flowing eastward!

Perhaps this is the origin of Yan Ran's pen name.

Or would I also look for it in ancient poems?

Yan Luo began to rack his brains to recall ancient poems.

Who else in history is as unlucky as Li Yu?

Liu yong! The waning moon? Haggard people for Iraq? It's not good, the wind and dust are too heavy!

Yan a few ways! Where was the bright moon at that time? Afraid that the meeting is in a dream? It's not good, you can't get rid of sorrow and hate!

Li Qingzhao! Miserable and miserable? and ashamed to go, leaning on the door and looking back, but sniffing the green plum? It's not good, I don't like that style of self-pity!

Yan Luo, who had thought about it for a long time and still didn't have any good ideas, couldn't help but take the sad book again, stroking the stained words on it.

His mother's name is Yan Ran, and she named herself Yan Luo, and Yan Ran and Yan Luo are full of smoothness.

Why don't you just use the names of two people as pen names?

Yan Ran Yan falls? No, it should be Yanran Yanluo, from the beginning to the end, just like the flowers blooming and falling, the years are ruthless, the beauty is twilight, but the flowers will bloom again, but after the flowers fall, there is only nothing left! Just like Yan Ran, just like what I hoped!

It is called Yanran Yanluo, which is not only a combination of the names of my mother and herself, but also a moral of the natural decline of the passage of time!

Open the novel, change the author's name to Yanran, and then save, upload, and send! Yan Luo didn't hesitate at all, and sent the email out in one go, and then she breathed a sigh of relief, and then it depends on whether people want their own novels, how to say it, I am fortunate to have it, and I have lost my life!

This night, Yan Luo lost sleep again! She can't sleep over and over again, and she always has all kinds of strange thoughts in her mind, one will worry that the novel is not well written, one will worry that the ending will be too worrying, and the other will worry about what to do if the novel is not published!

Yan Luo knows that the reason for this kind of performance is his lack of self-confidence, and even more so that he has great expectations for the publication of the novel, so he will suffer from gains and losses!

It seems that being a writer weighs more in your heart than you think!

Yan Luo thought unconsciously before falling asleep.

The next day, when Yan Luo opened his eyes and picked up the alarm clock at the bedside, he found that it was already eight o'clock!

Oh no, it's going to be late!

Yan Luo sat up abruptly and was about to get dressed, but the next moment she remembered that it was Saturday and she didn't have to go to school at all!

Yan Luo lay down on the bed with a sigh of relief, and then she thought that if it was Saturday, wouldn't it mean that she had sent an email to someone else's editor on Friday night?

Yan Luo suddenly regretted it, not only may this disturb people's normal weekend rest, but he will have to wait for two more days on his side, is it possible that people even have to work overtime on weekends for your novel?

"Luoluo, do you think that "Heart Novel" is the same as "Youth"?"

On Monday, at lunch, Yan Luo confided in Ding Shihua about her anxiety about waiting, but in exchange for Ding Shihua's eyes.

"A novel of hundreds of thousands of words! Even if people start to read your manuscript today, it will take half a month to determine it at the earliest, not to mention, the editor's mailbox may be full of emails! ”

"So, you better wait patiently, it's likely that it will take a month or two to get results!"
