Hi everyone, this is Ayou.

The book was released on December 26, 2016. It has been 1138 days, more than three years, and a long period of time. After two renames, it was not easy to escape the ban. Of course, except for the bad aspects, the results of this book have been rising steadily. From the beginning, no one cares about it, and now that it has passed the threshold of 1,000 bookings, it is not bad for a "newcomer" author.

Three years is not very long, but it is definitely not short. It takes three years for junior and senior high school, and only four years for college. The same is true for an online essay. It is not very long, but it is definitely not short.

If you continue to write in the original rhythm, which is what I said in "Writing at the end of volume 15", the content of 20 volumes supports the second half of the book. From the perspective of the whole book, it can be said that it is the most secure method, but What will happen? Actually, there are precedents.

You may wish to take a look at each volume with me, and I will pick out a few typical ones:

Volume Seven, Ancient Sealed Book of the Unknown Castle, 340,000 words

Volume Eight, Cooper's Past Glory, 360,000 words

The fourteenth volume, the horror set of ghosts, 400,000 words

Why did you choose these three volumes? Because these three volumes are not highly rated by readers, and the subscription is not good.

Although the evaluation of the follow-up "Castle" has risen to some extent, it does not allow it to deviate from the typical.

What are the common characteristics of these three volumes? No matter whether it is the movie setting or whether the opening is tight, etc., counterexamples can be found. The only thing that can be seen clearly at a glance is the number of words. The three volumes add up to 1.1 million words, and they can be used as a long story if they are extracted individually, let alone put in the book as one volume.

Even though the book is all original worlds, the word count requirements can be relaxed a lot, but it still can't carry so many words, because these worlds are not so attractive. At the root, they are just "copy", and the protagonist leaves. After that, there is basically no more involvement with the people or things inside, even if there are, there are very few.

Correspondingly, let's take a look again. The evaluation is higher and the subscription is also better:

The ninth volume, the terrorist disaster in Dingtai Town, 130,000 words

Volume Twelve, Terror in the Dark Night, 150,000 words

Volume seventeen, cool summer vacation time, 140,000 words

After reading the above analysis, you can naturally see the most obvious difference at a glance. Yes, they are all "short".

Seeing this, some readers may say, "Ayou is scheming, I don't want to write, and deliberately came up with such a theory, he is a scheming boy." Then let's take a look at the mediocre volumes:

Volume eleven, the unsolved mystery of unmanned mountains, 210,000 words

Volume 13, Haunted Rumors of Sunshine Hospital, 280,000 words (the main world plot with nearly 70,000 words)

Volume fifteen, important manuscripts that disappeared bizarrely, 160,000 words

You can find that the number of words in these volumes is in the middle, around 200,000, and the evaluation and subscription are also in the middle, which can be summed up by mediocre words.

In the above example, I did not write the first few volumes. The first is because the writing level of the first few volumes is low, and the second is because there were not many readers at the time and could not get feedback.

Now, the question is, why can the number of words in each volume affect the evaluation of the story? Isn't it just looking at the good or bad of the story itself?

I also have this question, but is this really the case?

No matter how fun the game is, how many people can play for 18 hours with enthusiasm? No matter how good the music is, how many people can repeat a single one week? No matter how good the TV series and anime are, how many people can make up more than 100 episodes in a row and still keep smiling?

Everyone's attention is different, but most people are similar.

Reading is a very energy-consuming thing, and people's energy is limited. When too much energy is consumed, they will naturally feel bored. If the boring time is extended, it will become torture, just like a class.

If you add 200,000 words to the well-received volume above, it is estimated that "mostly well-received" will become "different reviews", while the mediocre volume will add 100,000 words, and the evaluation will vary from "different reviews" to "mostly bad reviews" In the past, the "mostly bad reviews" volume, the castle, the ancient country, and the "set" volume, assuming that these three volumes are all minus 100,000 to 200,000 words, it is possible that the evaluation can also rise to "mixed praise".

In fact, the issue of "length" has already appeared in various entertainment activities. Short videos and posts "too long to watch" are not uncommon. Of course, it should not be too short, but within a suitable length, such as instant noodles. It has been criticized repeatedly.

This theory is also suitable for the entire book. If the original plan is still followed, let alone whether the 404 will strike, the entire book will become too long and boring, and eventually it will become torture, which will put the reader on the eunuch. .

If you think that what Ayou said is right, and the long length affects the reading experience, you can say deduction 1 in this chapter, deduction 2 if you think it is wrong, and you can also express your own opinions.

Back to the topic, this book is also the case. For this volume of "The Funeral of the Sun", I give a maximum of 6 points. When writing, I have been finding ways to bring "weird, horror, and horror", but it is difficult, I can only say that it is difficult, everyone watching the battle is very exciting, very passionate, and very exciting, saying that it is very beautiful. A little bit more, but it has nothing to do with the atmosphere of "weird, horror, and horror". It is the refreshing feeling that the weak beats the strong, not the refreshing feeling of coming up with a wonderful escape method in a desperate situation.

A book should have "integrity" and the overall style is consistent. I think when you first opened the book, there was absolutely no idea that the protagonist could move mountains, fill the sea, steal stars and change the moon in the later stage. This was established from the beginning. The overall tone, unless it is clearly stated or foreshadowed in the early stage, for example, the title of the book is not "Horror Studio", but "Horror Cultivation Studio", "Horror Bloodline Studio" and so on. unexpected.

In "Writing at the End of Volume 15", I have already talked about the limitations of the theme of ghost escape flow, and the same is true of the problems encountered now.

Some readers in the group opened a "set running group", similar to the COC, when I was watching, I had an idea in my heart, perhaps, the real destination of the ghost escape stream is precisely this kind of mode that can "start from scratch" infinitely. , The character’s strength may not increase at all, but the player’s fun will never decay.

In essence, what the set wants and wants to write about is this kind of atmosphere.

Skill [Candle Light], can illuminate and ignite, equipped with [breathing mask] can extend underwater breathing time, special props [Emergency Spray] for emergency treatment.

It tastes like when you write it, and if you are interested, you can try it out in a group.

Back to the topic, the reason for talking about these things is very clear. The book is heading towards the end, which has already been mentioned before, so it shouldn't be considered abrupt.

After reading this volume, readers should be well aware that the three hall-class actors of the warning club should have arranged a separate movie for each, and another strange and terrifying appearance will make people exclaim "deserved as the leader of the warning club. It’s just different from other actors." Otherwise, it’s really out of style, but it’s a pity...it’s a pity...

Who is to blame?

Thinking about it, I still blame myself. The writing level is not in place and the rhythm is not good enough, but the writing level cannot be improved in one or two sentences~lightnovelpub.net~ I also envy the writing level of other authors. , A murderer can write more terrifying than the high-level existence in my book. The protagonist can make the reader's back cool when he sees the **** eyes in the cat’s eyes, not to mention a hand out of the mineral water bottle. Something big will happen.

When I write it out, readers will only comment on "It's you, XXX", "I will put your ashes in three chapters", "Is this funny? Brother", thinking about it carefully, I am indeed better at writing some wonderful ideas. I think, occasionally a little weird and scary, the overall style tends to be sci-fi suspense, the next book, let alone the subject matter, the style is definitely the same, and my goal is to write "good".

What is "good"?

Everyone has a different definition of "good", and I also have my own definition. If I want to sleep while hiding under the covers at night, but the idea of ​​"reading another chapter and going to sleep" pops up in my mind, then this book is good for me.

Finally, thank you all for your continued support and my persistence!

One more thing, during the epidemic, everyone should take care to protect themselves and save some instant noodles.
