Everything is difficult at the beginning, and all authors will face the trouble of writing the beginning. If you can grasp it well, what is the principle used in the opening chapter, what kind of effect can it produce, and will there be a better way to replace or improve it?

The quality of the beginning of a novel actually determines the fate of a book, why?

It's actually very simple, you will never have the idea of love at first sight for a person of the opposite sex with nostrils facing up, teeth sticking out, crooked corners of the mouth, protruding eyes, and a face full of pimples.

Therefore, how to write a good beginning of a novel is a very important thing

I once talked about a course like "If you were asked to optimize your first 60,000 words, how many aspects would you plan to start with?" You can refer to how this course can help us in our creation.

Now it's about how to start with an analysis.

The most common opening is called the method of revenge for the destruction of the family, and the Legend of the Condor Heroes is a typical example.

If I were to write like this now, I don't think anyone would have read it, why, it's too old-fashioned.

The same old-fashioned opening, there are also protagonists who have lost love, vendettas, fights, master appearances, and so on

What is called cliché: that is, you have just written a few words, and the reader has already guessed what you are going to write later, which is cliché.

How can we keep our articles from looking old-fashioned? Then read more books, read three or five thousand books, and you will naturally know what is old-fashioned and what is not.

Let's get back to the point, and begin to explain several ways to write the opening chapter.

First, first suppressed and then raised, the protagonist who started very miserable, very ordinary, and even waste wood, slowly climbed to the highest peak in the world through his own efforts.

This is most common in mortal flow and waste wood flow novels. The characteristic is that there is a strong sense of substitution, because the beginning is very depressed, and a little progress in the back can bring readers pleasure.

Second, first raise and then suppress, that is, first lift the protagonist up to the clouds and then fall down, which is generally adopted by the kind of works that turn genius into waste firewood.

Due to the large span of loss, and the fact that the protagonist has previous genius experience, he can be used as a golden finger, and this type of novel is still quite popular.

Third, revenge and gratitude, this is a relatively old-fashioned way of writing, everyone has basically seen it, so I won't say much

Fourth, the flattering method, the protagonist did not appear at the beginning, but the purpose of almost all descriptions is to lead out the protagonist.

Here is an introduction to a more vulgar book "The Owl", which is written in this opening style.

Although the protagonist does not appear in the first two chapters, the reader will focus all their attention on the protagonist who does not appear.

Fifth, wedge foreshadowing

Start with a short wedge or introduction to point out the main foreshadowing or background of the article.

For example, the plot of the treasure hunt, cheats, treasures and other clues throughout the whole text;

For example, in a double-background novel like Urban Xianxia, due to the changing and intersecting backgrounds, the high-level background can be explained in the front

Personally, I prefer this type of writing, which can first whet the reader's appetite and then slowly narrate our storyline.

However, this kind of writing can't be like some authors, where the wedge introduction is three or five chapters or ten chapters.

Be sure to be simple and concise, with as few words as possible.

Let me give you an example: the ancient legend of Chu Liuxiang

Wenjun has a white jade beauty, carved with wonderful hands, extremely beautiful, and yearning for it. Tonight, when the moon comes, come and get it. Jun Su Yada, will not make me go back and forth in vain

Just such a sentence, buried the white jade Guanyin, the thief Chu Liuxiang who wrote this sentence, and there is also a fierce story of stealing.

As an author, if the first 300 words do not reflect some information and foreshadowing, then I would like to ask this author: what exactly do you want to tell the reader?

Like those who have written more than ten or twenty chapters and have not yet entered the main text, and then tell the reader: everyone starts to read in chapter 39, and the most exciting part starts here.

I was depressed, why don't you remove the first thirty-eight chapters and start directly from the thirty-nine?

Of course, there were slow-burning books before, the most typical is "Rebirth to the West" by Otaku Pig, which wrote **100,000 words before it suddenly became popular.

However, that year was back then, and the online creation environment of that year was incomparable now.

So a slow-burning book can be popular, but more likely to hit the street.

Next, let's talk about the most commonly used crossing passages in fantasy novels

First of all, the background of the crossing section is to be changed, even if it is three days ago, the background has already been changed.

The most taboo thing about changing backgrounds is that there is too much foreshadowing.

I've seen a lot of authors who wrote 30,000 or 40,000 words before crossing over, and they crossed with a sound of "Biyu", and all the things written in front were thrown away.

I asked an author: What does your description before the crossing have to do with the post-crossing period?

He said: "It doesn't matter, it's just a person who falls out of love, fails, is frustrated, and then crosses." ”

"The rest of the plot has nothing to do with the previous ones. ”

I was depressed in my heart: Isn't Nima a pit person? You wrote 350,000 words, and finally told me that it doesn't matter, so didn't I read it in vain?

I'd rather see you write like this: Someone, male, lovelorn, unemployed, frustrated, jumping off a building and committing suicide after crossing over.

At the beginning of writing, there are three places to pay attention to: 10,000 words, 30,000 words, and 60,000 words

This 10,000 words, at least point out a more important foreshadowing, even if the protagonist can't appear in 10,000 words, there must be enough foreshadowing to let the protagonist appear, and focus all the focus on the protagonist.

10,000 words is about three chapters, and in these three chapters, it is not recommended to have more than five character names, why?

I would like to ask the author, if you read a novel of three million words, the beginning of ten thousand words, how many character names can you remember?

If you write dozens of names and the reader can't remember any of them, it's better to write a name so that the reader will remember the name well.

If the author is a novice and has limited control over the article, I recommend that the protagonist appear in the first and second chapters.

In fact, everyone can write the opening chapter, but you must remember that the opening must not be too complicated, and too many adjectives will only make the reader feel tired to read, not that your writing is good.

In addition, the time span of the opening chapter should not be too large

To put it simply, if the story of childhood is not very attractive, then don't write about childhood.

Some authors start from the birth of the protagonist and write until they are seventeen or eighteen years old, and then the novel enters the main text, how aggrieved will the reader be?

If it is a vision of the protagonist's birth, a golden finger, then it can be written as an introduction wedge, but don't write the protagonist's childhood within 350,000 words.

Of course, novels that travel back in time and are reborn in the past are not included in this case because of their different selling points

Today's online articles are in an era of attracting attention, if they are not particularly eye-catching, then your work is likely to be silent in the vast sea of books, not to mention the successful experience of the novel ten years ago, or the successful experience of the novel a year ago, should not become the object of imitation by our online writers.

Many, many authors told me, you don't want long sentences and long paragraphs, people write like this; you say don't explain too much background at the beginning, people write it like this; you say don't have too many typos, people write it like this; you say that martial arts can't be popular, and people are not very popular?

I won't say anything about the rebuttal, how did they become popular back then, and is the situation the same now as it was back then? Back then, three to five thousand people wrote novels, and now?

Therefore, if you can use skills to attract readers in the first place when writing novels, we might as well give it a try.

Maybe it took 300,000 for others to become popular, but we have a lot of loyal fans with 30,000 words

Who's going to get the better grades......?
