I started writing in June, and it has been half a year now. Taiqiu has also unknowingly written 800,000 words. If I hadn’t been looking for a job in the middle, I might have written more!
If you are interested, please read the following text content. I will talk about whatever comes to my mind!
I sat in front of the computer for another day today. I wrote a little bit but deleted it. Some book friends in the past strongly recommended me to read Zhang Men Lu, but due to various reasons, I haven’t officially read it yet.
I feel a little guilty.
Zhang Men Lu has stopped updating. I have read his book reviews before, probably because of poor grades and the fact that writing that kind of novel is very taxing on my brain.
In fact, when I think about it now, it is very similar to my current situation. Taiqiu's grades are not good, but I still have to write the copy of Ten Thousand Stars Islands.
When I was writing this copy, I was very tangled in it, especially when I was laying the groundwork, because there were too many things to consider and too many things to describe, and I was afraid that the writing would be so confusing that everyone would not be able to read it clearly.
In fact, the story line is still very obvious, with Li Xuangang's medicine garden being a line, Li Changqing's Lingshi mine being a line, and Lian Chenglin establishing a sect.
I was worried that writing too much about the second line would make it boring, so I simply skimmed over that battle and just gave an overview.
Originally, if it had been written, it would have been a tough battle, which would have led to other things, such as opponents and ancient sects!
.......
In fact, some people like this way of writing, and some people say it is hydrographic, but in fact, for me, it is really not hydrographic.
Chapters like this actually consume more of my energy.
It was the first time I saw this kind of group portrait writing method when I was watching The Son-in-law. It left a deep impression on me at the time. I still remember one of the chapters called Cats, Cats. At that time, I thought that I could also write this kind of writing.
Just text!
Later, when I read Immortal Road Supreme, I also liked the stories about other members of the family that were accidentally written in it. Unfortunately, the author didn't write much about this aspect, which left me a little unfinished.
There is another platinum writer who writes like this, who may have a lot of controversy, Mao Ni.
I really like his books. I read them three times in Qing Yu Nian. Unfortunately, I never watch the TV series adapted from them, otherwise I would have something to do in my free time recently.
No, where do I get the free time!
When I mentioned Qing Yu Nian, I discovered another thing: readers can never fully understand the fantasy world in the author's mind.
Every time I read it again, I found that the things I had missed or ignored before were actually very interesting.
Mao Ni must have had a lot of imagination in his mind when he first wrote it.
For example, when I was laying the initial groundwork for Ten Thousand Stars Islands, I mentioned that Lian Chenglin's mission to summon casual cultivators was interrupted once.
I don’t know if any book friends saw this as a foreshadowing at the time.
If I read it by myself, I would definitely not notice this the first time. Maybe I would only notice this detail after reading today's chapter and reading it all for the second time.
It turns out this guy thought so far ahead!
In fact, there are some similar ones in the book!
...
After writing this chapter today, the Ten Thousand Stars Islands has formed a closed loop. I have explained the causes and consequences as well as the specific process.
I believe everyone has a general understanding of the power structure in the entire eastern Chaoyang Continent.
I have read a lot of fairy tales before, such as Mortals and Immortal Ni.
It really opened up a new world for me, and it turned out that there was such an ups and downs of the story.
When I watched Xian Ni, I had just graduated from junior high school and got my first smartphone. The whole Xian Ni was divided into twelve parts, and each part cost two yuan. I remember I paid for it with my phone bill.
That’s too far!
In fact, when I was watching Mortal and Immortal Rebellion, I was thinking about what happened to those sect families? How did they develop?
It wasn't until my senior year in high school that I saw the Nine Transformations of the True Spirit! Then I saw the Immortal Road Supreme.
When that crazy English-speaking Li Yang came to our high school to give a speech, I secretly took a cell phone and watched the Nine Transformations of the True Spirit.
It’s really fun to think about it now.
Speaking of which, I actually want to clarify one thing. My math was really not taught by a physical education teacher. I should have had relatively good grades since childhood.
I went to the best local high school and took the college entrance examination with a score of 132 in mathematics.
Personally, I'm good at taking exams. Didn't I take the civil service exam some time ago? I was nearly 30 points higher than the second place, and I ranked fifth in Chongqing in terms of scores!
Wow, when you think about it, I'm pretty good!
Sorry, I'm a bit shameless.
In fact, I have never thought about making a living by writing books, so when my grades in Taiqiu were worse than now, I was very calm.
It’s just a matter of interest. If you want to write, just write. If you don’t want to, just don’t write!
But later I discovered that this was not the case at all. My strong sense of responsibility did not allow me to do this. In fact, the fundamental reason was that I was afraid of being scolded.
The craziest time for me to write was probably after I finished the written exam. During that time, I knew I had to prepare for interviews and surgery, so I wanted to save more manuscripts.
During that period, I really got up at six o'clock every day and wrote until ten o'clock at night. I wrote until my waist could not sit on the chair, I wrote that my head felt dizzy every day, and I wrote that the finger joints of my left hand were inflamed.
The most severe condition is pain when the first finger pads touch the keyboard.
At that time, I wrote three or even four chapters every day.
But I don’t know why I worked so hard. The pain in my back was so unbearable that I actually chose to lie on the bed and write, but my neck couldn’t bear it.
...
When I was in college, I liked an author very much. I recommended his works to my classmates everywhere, and many of them were led into his trap by me.
His name is Pure Xiaolong. I have been reading his books for a long time, and he was not so popular at that time.
But compared to his books, I like to share some of his own experiences with him. For example, when he was writing novels in college, he used all the royalties to treat his classmates to dinner. After graduating from college, he started writing novels full-time.
What impressed me more later was his experience of pursuing his wife. He was really committed to it and "shameless". Hahahaha
At that time, I was thinking that such an interesting person should have a chance to have a meal and chat in the future. He happened to be in Chengdu and my university was in Chongqing, which was not too far away.
But I’m a dead otaku, (a dead otaku with eight-pack abs)
So the plan was aborted!
Originally, I planned to go to Yunnan for a solo trip after graduation, also because I was writing about Taiqiu, but actually it was still aborted because of laziness.
He was so cold that he couldn't write the main text, but writing these words brought him a flood of ideas.
...
The first thing I do when I open my eyes every day is that I haven’t written tomorrow’s update yet!
This is fucking scarier than going to school!
...
There are still some problems when I write it for the first time, and there are still many questions.
Sometimes I really think about whether to write another book, and I think the subject matter and concept of the next one will be better.
The day before yesterday, I checked the subscription as usual. The dazzling number made my heart stop for a moment. It was like knowing that I had failed the exam and needed to make up for it. It was really terrible, but in fact, I felt that my writing was okay! Hahahahaha
!
I haven't opened the statistics for two days, for fear of being irritated again.
I used to have the habit of browsing Baidu to read comments, but later I stopped.
Well, I won’t write anymore, winter is here and my hands are cold!
Now I am more and more admiring those Internet writers who have poor grades but still keep writing!
