The information of the great gods is shared with novices and self-learning
Now that we're in the age of web novels, with countless monthly or even daily productions, how do you make your work stand out from so many books?
The title of the book, the introduction is a point, and the opening is also a point.
As one of the faces of a work, the opening will be an important factor in the success or failure of your book.
Of course, there are also many authors who take the 'Legend of Mortal Cultivation of Immortals' as an example, believing that their works are just slow to heat, and perseverance will be rewarded.
Of course, this possibility is not ruled out, but the probability is very low.
As long as you pay a little attention and make efforts, readers can be attracted to your article at first glance, so why grind it slowly?
In the more than two months since I started working, I have reviewed hundreds of works, and there are all kinds of beginnings.
Among them, I want to say that one of the common mistakes that everyone makes is that all kinds of messy characters, all kinds of dialogue flows, and all kinds of irrelevant things are described in a particularly detailed way within 3,000 words in the first chapter.
1. It's best not to have more than three or four characters at the beginning, and don't let anyone who doesn't matter about soy sauce appear, wasting the golden word count.
Second, don't talk too much about some sesame things that are messy and unrelated, and highlight the key points.
A few days ago, I read a president article.,She first described various scenes in the bar.,Then introduce supporting roles.,And then all kinds of escort misses.,Team leader Mommy Ah.,It seems that there are bodyguards.,Three thousand words,The description of the male protagonist is a short paragraph.,The description of the female protagonist is a bit of a word count.。
.......Well, is it necessary?
If you change it to the opening bar to describe a few sentences, and then introduce the male protagonist to appear, well, the male protagonist is an indifferent man, you can have a supporting role, but those who accompany the wine lady, the leader of the mother, is it necessary to appear? Doesn't it affect the protagonist's sense of existence? Typical irrigation, add these, write thousands of words, and as a result, it hasn't reached the point yet? Who reads such an article?
Okay, I'll talk about the crossing text!
Now there are still a lot of books to describe the things before the protagonist crosses over, and then the maid makes a shining appearance after the crossing, telling you what era it is now, etc......
Dear, this was a popular writing technique many years ago.
Traveling through the text, unless it is a story such as what will appear in your follow-up back to modern times, don't come to this, is it necessary? In ancient times, you have nothing to do with the previous life, you go to write a lot of things from the past life and then how do you travel through and do what? Is it meaningful? Same as mentioned above. Isn't that watering? Writing something that doesn't make sense.
The current traversal texts all want the protagonist to have a golden finger, and then work hard in another world with this.
So...... It is recommended that if the follow-up text is not related to the previous life, don't use this technique, and write the story directly after the time-travel, of course, you can slightly remind you that you are from the time-traveling.
As mentioned above, the opening is one of the most important factors in determining the success or failure of your work, and since it is such a golden place, then write about your most important things.
Don't describe the irrelevant things of sesame mung beans so carefully, just bring a sentence that you need.
Everything is difficult at the beginning, how to make a good start, I will talk about the major factors that I think are necessary for a good beginning.
1. Contradictions
Look at the mountains but not the flat, the plot has to be ups and downs to attract the reader's attention, so how to make the plot have ups and downs?
Create contradictions.
Contradictions and conflicts are the most critical factors that promote the development of the plot, and you must pay attention to this, don't say that my essay is slow to heat, and the follow-up will be very exciting.
You're wrong, you can't attract people's attention at the beginning, what's the use of writing a wonderful follow-up?
As for how you arrange this contradiction, it depends on yourself, it can be emotional or characteristic.
Time is in a hurry, and I didn't find a good case in advance, so I won't give an example.
Second, good gold fingers
If you want an article to have all kinds of cool points, gold finger is one of the necessary elements.
There is a thing that is extraordinary, and naturally everything will come naturally.
For example, rebirth, crossing.
For example, if you write a gambling stone, others are ten bets and nine losses, and you have the golden finger of perspective, you can naturally know in advance that there is wood and jade in it, then it is ten bets and ten wins, is it to make others envious, jealous and hate? Isn't it particularly cool?
Of course, your golden finger should be reflected at the beginning, so as to introduce the theme of your whole text.
Don't write tens of thousands of words of emotional essays, suddenly pop up with an ability, and then change direction, who reads such a messy text?
3. Lead the foreshadowing and pitfalls of the full text
Don't start with a book, even if you can't get straight to the point, at least show the potential development of your book.
Take, for example, a book I signed!
In the general manager's office of the French headquarters of Chen's Group, I saw a fashionably dressed woman lighting a cigarette and looking out of the window in confusion.
It is said that France is a romantic country, and Paris is even more so, but looking at the faint loneliness in her eyes, it seems to be incompatible with this city famous for its romance.
This is her first sentence at the beginning, which directly shows the heroine's mood at the moment, making people wonder what happened to her?
This catches the reader's eye. People are curious, and they will definitely explore what happened.
Summary of opening writing techniques:
Step 1: Extract the main plot.
Step 2: Foreshadowing the subsequent plot at the beginning.
Step 3: Arrange the character portrayal to strengthen the impression of the character in the reader's mind.
Step 4: Reduce redundancy.
