Chapter 14: Foreshadowing
Unlike traditional works, online novels have many special features, one of which is serialization. An online novel,Often serialized for more than half a year,Maybe even up to several years,For these works,Long-term updates are not a bad thing,It is this protracted battle,Maximize its influence,But it is also this long-term serialization,So that the work must be changed accordingly,One of the key points is the setting of foreshadowing。
Different from traditional novels, the foreshadowing of online works should be minimized, because a longer time interval will make readers forget the previous text, and the foreshadowing of the result will temporarily become a seemingly wordy burden, but make the reader feel that the author is dragging the word count and injecting water. If it is a very necessary foreshadowing, then it is not impossible, but it must be buried shallower than traditional novels, and it must be easier to see, in addition, these foreshadowings must be mentioned more later in the text while they are obviously suggestive, so as to arouse the reader's memory, so that they can play a role in the end.
In general, it is not a good thing to set up foreshadowing in online novels, except for one category, that is, YY foreshadowing without a purpose, which may be difficult to understand, so let me give an example.
For example, the protagonist gets a special item, which can be a special prop in an online game novel, a special magic weapon in a Xianxia work, a wordless book in a martial arts novel, or a special password in an urban work, in short, this thing is a bit strange and seems to have a bit of a role, but the protagonist doesn't know what it can do, just collect it. In fact, at this time, even the author didn't know what this thing could be used for, and it was just kept as a foreshadowing. Such a foreshadowing,It will not seem wordy,On the contrary,It will make the reader look forward to it,It will temporarily enhance the attractiveness of the work,And,It can play a great role in the future,When the protagonist is in trouble,And the author has nothing to do,You can give the item a special function and let the protagonist find out,Solve the protagonist's troubles,And when the work is at a low ebb,You can also let the special item show its power and create a big ** , and at the same time, the work can also play a special role in the object and introduce the story to a new world...... If none of the above is needed, then it is perfectly okay to ignore this foreshadowing and let it stay there. In short, this is a good and harmless approach.
The author has something to say
Whatever is spent on pen and ink will surely reappear in the future and become the key to a certain plot.
A lot of foreshadowing should not appear at the same time, it will drown the main line in cumbersome details.
