Writing a book for the first time, because I haven't been exposed to online literature, I don't know some posting skills of online literature. Most of the authors died in the foundation; Secondly, the most is the first 30,000 words, which is not written well.

When writing a novel, you must have an outline. Therefore, even a lazy author should write an outline of 30 thousand words at the beginning.

This outline should account for at least 50% of the length of the protagonist. It is necessary to strengthen the protagonist's sense of existence, so that readers can quickly substitute the role and then indulge in the work.

The first is the scene of the protagonist.

Imagine: there is a book with 30 thousand words at the beginning and only three or five thousand words in the protagonist. Will you read such a book?

Considering people nowadays, reading novels is for leisure. Never put anything too complicated at the beginning. The simpler the better. Other supporting roles appear many times, affecting the protagonist's sense of existence.

To sum up: in the first 30,000 words, if you can make readers feel good about the protagonist, then you will succeed.

Then, there are settings and backgrounds.

When writing online novels, I am most afraid of putting settings and backgrounds in front of my works. How important is 30 thousand words? It can be said that whether readers like a book or not depends only on the first 30 thousand words.

It is unwise to put settings and backgrounds in such an important place. The suggestion is: after your readers like your book, tell them your background setting.

These aspects should be integrated into the environment and background:

First, the protagonist's sense of substitution.

Second, the foreshadowing and pit of the full text.

Third, an attractive beginning.

Fourth, have a good golden finger.

At the beginning, the protagonist comes out, grabs a characteristic thing and strengthens the protagonist's sense of existence. This costs one or two thousand words. Another plot advance, point the golden finger, quote the full text, 10 thousand words will do.

Then, discard some settings. Background, one or two thousand words is enough to give readers a general impression of the whole world. When readers have a good impression on the protagonist, you can write whatever you want in the future.

Now some bestsellers use gunmen, but readers will not stop reading. Why? Because the beginning is well written, I have a sense of belonging to the characters, so it doesn't matter who wrote the following plot.

Then, how to modify or make up for hundreds of thousands of words?

First, modify the beginning. To be sure, no matter who wrote hundreds of thousands of words, it is still helpful to modify the beginning.

Secondly, it is to increase the wedge and strengthen the protagonist's sense of existence; Or lay the groundwork and connect it with the plot we wrote later.

Third, it is slimming.

Slimming is to delete useless things.

How to judge what is useless? It's actually quite simple. We can write another fine outline of about 100 words according to the already written article.

Then all the plots revolve around this fine outline, all unnecessary adjectives, character descriptions, scene background details and so on. Be deleted

This slimming operation is limited to the first 30 thousand words. Too much, unnecessary, and a waste of time and energy, there is still so much time to revise, it is better to write a new book.

In a word, slimming at the beginning of the novel is to modify basic mistakes such as typos, punctuation paragraphs and long sentences on the basis of the original story context and reduce complex sentences; Reduce unnecessary details, such as details of non-key roles; Instead of tearing it down, people will die.
