The so-called work that touches the soul
"Book of the Night", this name is not the original, the earliest name is "The Apocalypse of the Night", it is estimated that it will be at least two million words or more, but this can only be regarded as a regular long story on the Internet where millions of words are commonplace. Finally, the income is not too much, not too much to satisfy the usual cravings, which is already very content, and the income will slowly increase, as long as this novel is written to the end, it has won credibility, and the previous solid readership base, the next novel will benefit from this.
The new novel is being prepared in a hurry, and 60,000 or 70,000 words have been written so far. The topic hasn't been officially decided yet, but it's generally associated with nightmares. A lot of people say that my novels are boring, solid, and boring, but the truth is that you have to get the parameters from hardware like clicks and subscriptions. I believe that as long as a person's writing level reaches a basic midstream or upper midstream level, coupled with experience and a genuine willingness to invest in the reader's true feelings, then it will inevitably resonate and be welcomed by the public.
For me, one of the thousands of ordinary post-80s generations, a work that touches the soul may not necessarily be a masterpiece of depth and epoch-making, as long as it can bring me the resonance of the growth experience of people born in the 80s, it can be a work that touches the soul. The 80s was the era when the impact of closure and openness on each other was the most intense, and there were more extreme human nature than today's human nature, and there were more shocking stories than today's stories. We are the first generation of only children, and this generation is so special, there are so many things to describe. And I not only missed my own youth, but also was interested in the era before I was born, so the male protagonist of the novel, the first-person "I", was born in the late sixties and early seventies in order to better grasp the context of the times.
Before you know it, you're getting old. The year 1992, which seemed to me as a child, was almost a mysterious number belonging to the future, and soon in 2012, the year of the end of the world, it became 20 years ago when I took away my youth and never returned. The future has also become history, and I really existed during that time, and gradually grew up. The children of the post-90s generation who wore open crotch pants and frolicked in the sand have grown into young people, and they must have a corresponding curiosity about the era they were born in or even earlier. At that time, the people were not as old-fashioned, dirty, and impersonal as you might think, and they had their own unique entertainment methods with strong characteristics of the times. The crystallization of their creativity is what you see now in the mainstream world.
My mental state is not very stable, I basically have to dream every night, and I have a clear plot, mostly with horror overtones, so I am willing to interpret it through dreams. In this crowded and noisy modern urban life, the increasing pace of work and life makes people work all day long and boring, even when they rest, they can not be happy, only dreams, dreams are real rest. Hugo said that dreams are aquariums of the night, so in today's urban life, dreams have become the only hiding place for mystery.
There are also contemporary online novels that are completely documentary, but there are only a handful of online realistic works that want to earn money to subsidize their lives at the same time. Even when you think of urban novels, I'm afraid that the first reaction of Internet readers is urban ability. The protagonist does have special abilities, but except for him and a few strange people, the entire background city is a real city that objectively exists, at least there is a major city as the basis for the conception, and then one or two other characteristic cities are added to soften it, and in this novel's city, the major events that happen every year can easily find their true source of creation. It's also a tribute to my hometown, which I love. There are two kinds of beauty in everyone's mind, one is the most beautiful parents, and the other is the most beautiful hometown.
Even though I have few friends and single, I have dear parents, dear hometown, and writing that touches the soul forever in a state of fanaticism, so I'm not alone.
It's going to be a great story, because you know it's happening, but it's an urban fantasy novel; You know it's fiction, but it's real history.
