It has been a year since I started writing "The World of Monsters", and I have finally written more than 1.5 million words. This is something I never expected when I typed the first word on the keyboard.
After writing for so long, I suddenly want to share a few words with you all today.
This is Shui Puyue’s first time writing a book!
When I started the book, it was just a whim. An idea that I thought was very interesting suddenly came to my mind, so I wrote an outline that seems very vague and crude now. I opened my notebook and started typing on the keyboard.
In my mind at the time, I only had a reader’s imagination concept of the novel based on having read online articles for more than ten years. I had no idea how difficult it would be to write this thing.
This industry is indeed too involved. This person's writing is good, that person's story is great, some authors are good at character creation, and some authors are very creative. This one updates 6,000 words a day, and that one can code 12,000 words a day...
And I'm just a typist who can only type four thousand words a day. This has nothing to do with my typing speed. It's entirely because my brain is slow to conceive of the plot.
Maybe it has to do with the fact that I have been a chronic person for more than 20 years.
If there are few updates every day, there is a high probability that the book’s performance will not be good. From last year when I failed to PK to advance to the Sanjiang recommendation position before it was put on the shelves, I knew that the book’s performance would most likely be like this.
When I was a simple reader, I saw many books with good ideas, but because of mediocre results, they were dropped after they were put on the shelves or after three months of full attendance.
But I can't bear to do this.
Because this is my book, and what is written in the book is the world I want to describe. If I am easily dismissed because of poor grades, I will look down on myself.
With such unwillingness, I kept updating it every day and wrote it to more than 1.5 million words in a year.
It has even reached the final stage of writing, and it is expected that the book will be completed after writing another hundred thousand words.
As we all know, long novels become more difficult to write as they get to the end, and many novels end in this way.
Search on site B. There are all videos teaching you how to write the beginning of a novel, but no one will teach you how to write the ending this way.
I feel like this now. Although I have planned the ending, I always think about how to make the ending more perfect.
Although I don’t know whether the ending I finally write will satisfy me, I will still take every chapter I write, every character in the book, and every reader who supports me as seriously as before.
Work hard to write a story.
For me, the process of writing a book is very happy, so I will continue to write.
After writing this book, I will write the next one, and then the next one, and I will not stop writing until I have nothing left to share...
…
By the way, finally, I want to tell you something very important.
