Please share your experience in writing novels, everyone has read them~ Please be true! experience

Hello dear, coding for novels is very hard. I compiled it based on some real skills and personal experiences shared by most writers and editors. I hope it can help you.

1. Don’t be lazy. Keep updating the code every day. Once you become lazy, it will be difficult to pick it up again.

2. Don’t think so much, don’t waste time worrying about details, just turn on the computer every day and do it.

3. Don’t talk about feelings or profound thoughts. Write the novel first and then write about other things you want to write.

4. Use vernacular to tell stories, don’t deliberately use idioms or ancient sayings, and don’t pursue the so-called writing style. The first thing is to explain the story and characters clearly.

5. Persist in finishing the book, and try not to be too lazy. Otherwise, it will be easy to develop a casual attitude and habit of writing, and it will be easy to be too casual.

6. Before submitting articles to the website, carefully understand the website signing rules and benefits, and do not wait until after signing the contract to question it.

7. Just keep writing. Don’t go to the editor for recommendations or resources. Otherwise, you will easily get resented. Even if I have the opportunity to recommend you later, I will not think of you unless you have a good relationship with me.

8. The focus is on telling stories, not reasoning. Readers come to read stories, not to listen to your reasoning.

9. Writing exciting stories is the first priority. Don’t show off your literary talent, no one will like it.

10. You don’t need to write an outline, but at least you should know and remember your main plot direction.

11. Don’t worry too much about the subject matter you write about. Pay more attention to the stories and plots you write. Readers don’t choose novels based on the subject matter. As long as the writing is good-looking, many people will like it regardless of the subject matter. .

12. Make sure the story is smooth and concise, but don’t be wordy. No one likes wordy words.

13. Don’t be discouraged for a moment, have confidence in yourself, have correct psychological expectations, and don’t be too ambitious.

14. There are very few people who become gods with one book. Most of the great writers wrote it for many years before becoming popular. Many people also wrote for many years and changed their vests before becoming popular. Great writers also rely on It’s accumulated, so don’t be afraid of poor results at the beginning.

15. Maintain a good attitude. It doesn’t matter even if you read the first and second books. Perseverance is the best way.

16. You can learn from some classic best-selling works, but you must not plagiarize, remember!

17. If you haven’t signed a contract after reaching 100,000 words, you can consider cutting it off. If you haven't signed it after reaching 200,000 words, I suggest you not continue writing. The current signing conditions are still very loose. If you really can't sign a contract, you can go to Shuqi Sign a Thousand Words 2. It's just for practice, and you can improve after you become popular.

18. Pay attention to the time of recommendation, be prepared to save the manuscript in advance, and make appropriate updates when recommending.

19. Listen more to editors. Professional editors are still very helpful to creation and can help people avoid pitfalls.

20. Don’t be superstitious about the Three Golden Chapters, and don’t completely reject them. If you can meet the rules of the Three Golden Chapters, try to be satisfied, but don’t lose the original story for the sake of the Three Golden Chapters.

21. Don’t worry about your poor writing skills. Good writing skills can be a bonus, but writing skills can be said to be the least important thing in online novels. As long as you can tell a good story.

22. The title of the book is very important. A recognizable title can attract more readers, but you should also be careful not to randomly name the book for the sake of being new and different.

23. Don’t always stare at the results, and don’t be afraid to see the results. Look at the data in the book with a normal attitude, and analyze and grasp the direction of the plot.

24. The main purpose of writing novels is to make readers happy, and don’t let it go just for self-pleasure.

25. Maintain a good daily routine and exercise appropriately. Writing novels also requires a healthy body to support you.

26. Don’t be superstitious about the saying that a million words will lead to a god. It is just a word of encouragement. Having written a million-word novel, you have experience in writing long novels.

27. Keep at least a few chapters saved. If you encounter unexpected events and have no time to write, you don’t have to worry about interruptions.

28. The protagonist must have upright three views. Do not write a protagonist whose three views are obviously problematic. It will be difficult for readers to like and the website will be difficult to recommend.

29. The plot must have ups and downs, and should not be dull or dull, creating conflicts between characters, and use slap-in-the-face and counter-slap-in-the-face routines flexibly.

30. Don’t worry about whether the routine is old-fashioned. You can also write stories using old routines. The key is to write a story that is exciting and beautiful.

31. Don’t rush to find someone to comment after you’ve just written a little bit. It’s useless to praise you for how good your writing is. You still have to look at the readers. It’s useless to criticize you and dampen your enthusiasm for writing.

To put it bluntly, it means learning to break the context (no)
