Written at the end of the volume 15
The 15 after the title means 15 volumes.
Probably in the future, there will be a summary at the end of each volume and something like that.,It's just probably.,If not, it's normal.。
Whether you want to see it or not, this book will be in the ...... At some point in the future, the end will be ushered in.
All infinite streams will and will face a difficult problem after writing for a period of time - how to end?
The type of book, as a branch of infinite streaming, will inevitably run into this problem.
Considering that the books at the beginning of the collapse were pulled back by me little by little (the level of writing gradually improved), I don't think it would be difficult for me to have a passable ending, after all, it can't be worse than the beginning.
Of course, I've also thought about ending the book with a stunning ending, but combined with a few attempts, I'm afraid it's not easy.
The most obvious example is several extra-long volumes, long enough to expand a little more, and even to be able to open a book on its own.
The endings of these volumes can be used as a reference.
But then again, what's not difficult? So, there's still a chance.
You may wonder why you want to mention the ending at this point in time, although the irresistible factor just made me change the title of the book, but the actual impact is far greater than you think.
The problems that I had been avoiding all along, reappeared, and I had to face them squarely.
As an escape stream that must have a real ghost, how to prove itself when it is labeled as feudal superstition?
I can't prove myself.
If the book were sealed, I would have to drink a glass of warm water and go to sleep.
……
Another point is that the contradiction of the type itself is not destined to be too long.
Suspenseful, weird, terrifying, irresistible plus a ghost that must be real.
All the elements combined, the person destined to fall into it can only be a panicked survivor, no matter how far he grows, he is not allowed to look directly at the ghost.
Probably, the only possible time is when he is dying, facing the impending death with the attitude of a generous and sad death.
(That's right, it's Zhiduoxing.) )
In fact, you can find that the protagonist has been "growing" in the early stage. ”
The first volume is frightened, and it depends on people to survive;
In the second volume, I tried to face it but was dying and helpless, and I was lucky enough to survive;
In the third volume, the team helps each other in cooperation;
Volume IV Faces Alone, Survives Alone;
The fifth volume combines strong forces and escapes;
The sixth volume survives with a novice, standing alone.
The seventh volume is unique and stunning.
Throughout, regardless of how the volume is written, the changing arc light on the protagonist's body is clearly visible.
He has been overcoming himself and climbing higher, but the core limits him to an ordinary person, and he will never be able to cross the threshold of a human being.
Some readers may say, "Then don't be a man."
Well, all the words in front of me are in vain.
It's not over yet, and in order to keep the kernel intact, in order to be interesting, there must be expectations for improvement.
Or, raise the bar for humanity to Usain Bolt per capita; Or, extend the arc changes to the team so that the team can grow.
What a team can't do alone, a team can do, and keep it within limits.
This may be the only solution.
The disadvantage is that the protagonist's presence will be weakened, and if the original attention to the protagonist is maintained, it will appear dispensable as the rest of the team.
In this regard, I can only say that there are gains and losses.
……
The genre has limited the dead frame, and once out of this framework, the fun comes in.
You will find that it has become a fantasy/fairytale/fantasy/sci-fi/urban/detective...... And maybe the military and sports?
It may become any type, but nothing else will become it.
To be sure, if it is extremely difficult for a type to keep its type unchanged, then the reason for the problem may not have much to do with the author, but rather the existence of the type itself that contradicts the core of its setting.
It is destined to be a flash in the pan, and after bringing a shocking touch, it will disappear.
The rest of the genre, even if it has the disadvantage of being too long and difficult to write, still does not hit its core, and it is permissible for the protagonist to step on the world.
Because of this, everyone has basically never seen the evaluation of "not fantasy" in the comment area of the fantasy classification, except for some bigwigs across classifications.
Back to the supernatural.
Among the tomb robbery types, the black donkey's hooves can restrain zongzi.
Among the ghost hunting types, mahogany swords and charms can restrain ghosts.
Regardless of the style, they are also supernatural, and at the core, their protagonists are considered "complete people", and they are able to face danger head-on.
And the ghost escape stream is not good, this road has been blocked from the setting.
The protagonist of a million-word super-long book, after experiencing so many dangers, he still can't face the existence that threatens him, the only thing he can do is overcome himself, and ironically, according to the setting, no matter how many times he overcomes, the result will not change.
Seeing this, you must have thought of what type is similar to the ghost escape stream.
It was none other than The Cthulhu Mythos.
However, "The Cthulhu Mythos" is basically a short story and a novella, and at the end of one article, the protagonist should go to the madhouse and go to the madhouse, damn it, or simply position it as just a humanoid self-propelled camera, and it is no problem to use the camera as the protagonist directly.
"The Cthulhu Mythos" does not need to face the problem of ghost escape streams, because it is basically short and medium-length, and even if it is long, the word count is far from the online article.
By the way, the Cthulhu Mythos is not a variety of mysteries/fantasy with Cthulhu elements, but the Cthulhu Mythos itself.
And "The Cthulhu Mythos" belongs to science fiction, and the ghost escape stream is supernatural because it inherits the "ghost".
Supernatural, ghostly, feudal superstition.
It must be admitted that from the perspective of positive energy, catching ghosts and killing ghosts is more in line with the core values, because it promotes the victory of man over the sky.
Next, let's talk about the title of the book.
……
The tentative title of the book is "Escape Studio", which is said to be tentative, but in fact, it will basically not be changed.
If the name is changed, everyone can definitely search for the word "set", because the alternate name is basically "XX Studio", the same.
As for me, I also wanted to come up with a cool name, such as "Real Acting", which sounds good at first glance, but I don't know what I want to express.
However, the review did not pass, and as for the reason, it can be said that it is to the point - the title of the book has little connection with the content, and the reader does not know what the book is.
Why not something else? "My movie can't be so weird", when you see this, you may think, why is it "weird"? And not "horror"?
This is a question that you can see if you look at the two words that my book title has changed.
It occurred to me that there are often readers who complain that the content is not scary enough, and they are suspected of title fraud.
Okay, I'm writing horrible.
Still not scary, what to do?
I pondered for a long time, and now I finally understood the solution, it turned out that all I had to do was to take out the "terror".
Everyone was happy.
In this regard, I can only say that there is no end to learning, why didn't I think of it?
This is the end of the title of the book, and the following is the previous revision.
……
As I said earlier, the first volume will be completely changed, and the second and third volumes will be restructured on the basis of retaining the original plot, and at the same time, the real-world plot will be deleted, and the protagonist will evolve into a "pseudo-orphan", leaving only two or three chapters for a brief explanation.
It's a big project.
Actually, I have already written the first volume, and the reason why it has not been sent out for a long time is because I am not very satisfied with it and it is relatively mediocre.
But now that this has happened, I think mediocrity is fine.
It's good to have a chance to change, but what else do you need a bicycle?
Now that I've said the previous article, let's talk about the future writing.
……
Considering that some bloody, horrific words have been expelled from the Xinhua dictionary.
It will be a little more difficult to create later.
Someone asked how to write it in the future?
A buddy came up with a solution, not writing any horror and gore words, but still expressing the ultimate horror.
I asked him what he should do.
My buddy was very righteous and told me that people like to scare themselves, and you write like this.
One guy bought a toy snake and put it in a colleague's drawer, but the next day, the colleague was hospitalized with snake venom.
As soon as I heard it, yes, the sense of suspense is indeed there, but it's not scary enough.
Dude said it's not over yet, a little more suspenseful.
After being discharged from the hospital, a colleague who was infected with snake venom thanked the guy who bought the toy snake.
When I think about it, it's pretty good, but it's still not scary, the main thing is that there is no sense of danger to my life.
The buddy shook his head and said he wasn't done yet.
After the colleague thanked him, the guy who bought the toy snake opened the gift box and found that it was also a toy snake.
The man was scared and was about to throw away the toy snake, but he was so nervous that he actually scratched the toy snake in his hand, and a death certificate appeared inside the toy snake.
At this time, another colleague called and said that the colleague who had been poisoned by the snake had died yesterday.
The guy who bought the toy snake came to the window to see that the colleague who gave the gift had not left, and was standing downstairs looking at the window.
Dude said, look, isn't the horror coming?
I asked buddy, why do toy snakes make colleagues poison snakes?
Dude said he hadn't thought about it yet, but it could be set up as a spell like witchcraft.
I asked my buddy again, did the guy who bought the toy snake report to the police? Wouldn't it be a bit silly not to call the police? If you call the police, how will the police answer? Wouldn't it be a little sensitive?
The buddy didn't answer.
I went ahead and asked buddy, will the guy who bought the toy snake survive? How do you survive? Will he investigate the matter of the toy snake after he survives? Will he be in danger when he investigates the toy snake? If there is danger, why did he investigate? To satisfy curiosity? Wouldn't it be abnormal?
After hearing this, my buddy rushed up and hit me, but I punched him down, after all, he was my fictional character.
Anyway, buddy still came up with a solution, although it's not perfect, but it can be tried.
……
Back to horror.
I think horror falls into three categories:
The first is the use of violence and gore to stimulate the senses, and this type is used by many authors, and the result is a high-dimensional blow - your book is gone.
The second type is the sense of hopelessness and oppression, and although I don't want to write about it, it always becomes this kind of thing after I write it, and to be honest, it's embarrassing, and it's like scar literature.
Strictly speaking, it's not scary, it's more desperate and depressed, but I personally think this kind of thing is quite scary, but I don't like to write about it myself, because it's really depressing, desperate, and masochistic.
The third type is the type of careful thinking and extreme fear, which first creates suspense, arouses the curiosity of readers, and after revealing the superficial mystery layer by layer, the core of careful thinking and extreme fear is revealed.
This category is exactly what the reader wants to see, and it is also the horror that the author wants to write about.
However, just as the only downside of expensive things is that they're expensive, there's only one downside to content that everyone likes – it's hard to write.
In short, I will try to get closer to the third category in the future, but whether it will work or not, I can only say that it will wait and see.
……
There are already 3 million words in this book, and according to the plan, there are about 2 or 3 million more words, which are expected to be completed within a year, depending on the situation.
To put it into account, there are probably ...... 20 volumes? That's a lot.
This volume of The Vanishing Manuscript is slightly flawed, but the structure is satisfactory and the length is managed.
Each volume will follow this one in the future, and the word count may be less.
I will adjust the location of the story, there have been many big scenes, big scenes in the past, and in the future I may be biased towards small scenes, and at the end I peek at the whole picture, but it will not unfold again.
You may ask about the length of a large team movie, and all I can say is about the same.
If the situation allows (and reader feedback is good), I may write a large team movie in the first and second volumes for an intermission.
As a preview, the next story takes place in a factory, where the protagonist is a working boy and the team participates, but it is not full (there are too many people).
……
The chapter ends with words of thanks and blessings.
Thank you for your support.
(Open the fan list, copy and paste!) )
I will send you another copy of the "Youth Anti-Addiction System" to eat it better with "Children's Day".
By the way, I almost forgot something, considering that crying children have candy to eat, I will add the words "ask for a monthly pass" and "ask for subscription" to the title of the chapter in the future.
Maybe some readers will vote for one or two more monthly tickets and subscribe to a few more chapters after seeing it.
By the way, you can also exercise to exercise your mental endurance (cheek).
