How to write novels on the Internet and what should be paid attention to when publishing novels on the website? thank you

On the self-description list, pay attention to the starting point of material selection

Up to now, nearly 60,000 original works have been collected, which is inseparable from the support of the authors. Now almost every day, 100-200 new books are being applied for warehousing review, which makes us very happy. To this end, the starting point is to further standardize the scope of the new work, and the following help documents are hereby issued. I hope the author will pay attention to the following when applying for a new book:

First of all, about the theme of the work.

1, 19 19-2050, the political events in China, famous politicians and their children should not be written as well. Usually, when you put content into storage, too little content is submitted for review. The editor is worried that there is illegal content behind you, so he will refuse to put it in the warehouse first and let you explain. Going back and forth will definitely delay the review time.

2. Although it claims to be a virtual background, don't write too obvious forbidden content. For example, country Z, island T, Tibet X and country J, and then writing articles involving sensitive relations, I advise you not to try it easily, even if it is changed to China, Baodao and Japan, it is illegal. The state has always been concerned about this kind of works, and banning books is an example.

3. The political and military description with absolute China characteristics should also be cautious as the background. For example, what kind of chairman, instructor and so on, especially some overhead articles, should be written about overhead, rebirth, crossing, whether being struck by lightning, dreaming, car accidents or something, why do you have to write about military fights, spies and political intrigue first? You said you wrote about China, not China. You said you didn't mention which country, but how many countries have such distinctive titles? Editors will be very cautious when they see it, fearing that you will write something later, and only let you explain it clearly and then put it in the library after revision.

4. Never write pornography. We don't welcome this kind of book, no matter how well it is written. Some people say that I wrote eroticism, not pornography. The whole book is full of girls, extramarital affairs and fooling around, such as my love history with 34 women and a macho man. You said you didn't have explicit descriptions or taboos? Your theme is vulgar. Who knows if there will be any problems after you put it in storage? Don't argue with the editor that the starting point of books with similar themes is historical issues. Even very popular books, the starting point never limits their recommendation. The starting point now is to constantly improve and standardize these standards, so I also hope that authors and friends can jointly maintain a good stack environment.

5. Write about sex in the name of animals. During the review, some authors wrote some abnormal things in the name of animals, such as "I am a pig", which was about people and animals, and even questioned the editor through the administrator's message that I didn't write about human organs and human sexuality. Why didn't I pass? It can be clearly said here that the starting point of such themes is not included, so please do not upload such works.

Second, about the article title and chapter title

1, too erotic and ambiguous. Many people have a misunderstanding that using erotic words or ambiguous words as titles or chapter names can attract people's attention. Admittedly, it will attract attention, including the attention of editors. The result is to refuse to put in storage. Please change the title. Don't explain my adult story because you are an adult, so you should write how you grew up. If so, you can say it's my growth story. Don't always use lust, lust and lust, and then explain that what I wrote is only some characteristics of human nature. Change some characteristics, write well, and you will be popular. The works that are really successful at the beginning are all fluent in writing and prominent in plot conception, rather than using some crooked brains in the title. Therefore, please ask the author friends to maintain the original green creative environment of the starting point with us.

Don't add anything made in the title. The starting point doesn't like these cheating alliances and pavilions. Please ask the authors and friends to maintain their works independently.

3, don't try to spoof in the topic. Like what's the starting point? Three rivers and land, obscene wind songs, etc., and then explained that this is not what it means. Respecting others is also respecting yourself.

Third, it is about content introduction, text and foreign articles.

1, don't appear in the introduction of any alliance and many advertisements. The introduction is for readers to understand the theme and content of your book conveniently, and should not be used for factional purposes, especially for a bunch of alliances, pavilions and advertisements. The editor will delete them directly when he sees them in the library. So please don't put anything irrelevant in the introduction. A refreshing introduction is what readers want to see.

It is clear that plagiarism must not be put into storage. The starting point only contains original works. If reproduced, it must be authorized by the original author, and the author's name must be signed when uploading. Please see the announcement on the judgment standard and punishment provisions of plagiarism on the home page of the starting point.

3. The article should not be banned, and the specific requirements have been clearly stated in the topic selection. There are two points to emphasize here: the first is about the national curse. You should be cool and show the temperament of the characters. No problem, but please note that if you swear too much, it is absolutely against the rules. Please respect yourself; The second is about what is erotic description. Don't write about all sexual organs or names that are obviously taboo to sexual organs, and don't write about sexual psychology during sexual intercourse. We don't accept the H text, and we don't try to scratch the edge. Our standards in this respect will only become stricter and more excessive. When we put them in storage, we will directly delete books and even columns. Even if you sneak into the library, once you report it, I am afraid you will not escape the fate of being deleted directly. Therefore, please follow the national regulations.

4. Don't appear unnecessary signed links, calls against this and that in foreign articles, and so on. If you find that although this book has passed the review, many foreign articles have been blocked, then please be conscious and don't do it again and again. Readers don't always want to see things that have nothing to do with the work. Respecting readers means respecting yourself.

Fourth, about the number of words.

1, the starting point of warehousing This book, except American literature, needs more than 5,000 words and three chapters to pass the examination.

Please don't publish the same content and the same chapter for many times. Or repeatedly post some nonsense in a chapter.

3. Don't post 2000-3000 words in several chapters. When the editor reads it, he will know that the number of words is not enough by looking at the braces.

Please note that the number of words we require is the number of words in the text of the work. Your original text can reach this number of words, and you don't need to post a bunch of materials in related works or foreign articles. So please pay attention to these details. Let your work pass the exam quickly.

Five, there are several common problems.

1, about plagiarism. When all the books are applied for warehousing review, the editor will go online to search for similar works. So, don't copy what you can find, even if it's articles posted by others on forums or blogs. Believe me, the current search engine is still very easy to use.

2. About the author's pen name. Many articles don't start from the starting point, so editors will look for similar works online and check the author's name first. So please try to use the same author's name to send articles, which is also very beneficial to improve the popularity of the name. Since it is impossible to register with the same name, please explain in advance with the title "Please edit and read" in your work. I will help you delete this chapter after editing, don't worry. This is much more convenient than leaving a message through the administrator channel.

It's time to review. We promise to review within 48 hours, but please note that when we say within 48 hours, we mean within working days. Usually the application from Monday to Friday afternoon should be able to review the results within 24 hours. But if you submit the audit on weekends or weekends, we will review it as soon as possible.

4. How to ask the administrator for help? If you really need to consult the administrator about warehousing, please select the corresponding question about warehousing audit from the contact administrator on the left side of the author area and send a short message in the station, and please specify your book name and book number in the short message for processing. Except for storage problems, please send messages to the corresponding channels so that you can get a quick reply. If you send the wrong channel, it will delay everyone's time, because editors will reply to their respective channels, and sending the wrong channel will cause transit and delay time.

6. What should I do after the book is rejected?

1. If you find that your book has been rejected, please don't be angry.

Please check whether the number of words submitted is enough. Insufficient, make up and submit again.

3. Think again about whether you have violated the rules, such as politics, pornography and plagiarism. You should know this yourself.

Please pay attention to whether there is any message for you from the editor in the "work related" of this article. For example, there is an extra chapter, such as "Please ask the author to read and reply" or "If it is the same as a work, please explain". If yes, please explain or reply according to the requirements in it. After editing the requirements, just explain it directly in that chapter, without leaving a message in the administrator's mailbox. Reply as required or resubmit for review after running.

If you find that this book has been deleted directly, and you are sure that there is no illegal content, please check your SMS box to see if there is any news from the administrator, because it is likely that there is an empty chapter in your work because of a network error, and you need to upload it again.

Although the above contents are trivial, they are all often encountered in warehousing audit. Here is a brief summary for your reference.

A Beginner's Guide to Network Writing (Outline Setting)

When we comment on the works of the starting point website, the most commonly used sentence for a book worth signing and having commercial value is: it looks smooth and has a good sense of rhythm.

This leads to a controversial issue in online business writing. Why does a book sell well when many people think it is weak, simple and full of logical errors? It sells so well that the authors who think they have carefully crafted their works turn their eyes into rabbits and curse the quality level of readers all day.

The question here is, what is the essence of online business writing?

From my editor's point of view, the plot, stable update, characters and words are arranged in turn. Among them, writing is the least important and the most important. Plot is the basis of network works.

In a way, online readers are the best and most tolerant readers in the world. They won't blame you for typos in your works, because the characters in your works are inconsistent and the plot settings are inconsistent, and they won't blame you for giving up the book because your characters' names are wrongly written.

All they want is a smooth story, some characters that can satisfy their little fantasies, even facebook characters. They will be content with basically straightforward and unadorned words. Looking around the world, you can't find readers who are so easy to meet and demand so simple.

It's your fault, not the readers' fault, that authors who want to make profits on the Internet and make money by writing can't satisfy them.

So when sitting in front of the computer, I want to write a novel that can sell money, determine the theme I want to write, and think about the main characters. What should we do next? This is also the time when newcomers are most likely to make mistakes.

The essence of the novel is the plot and characters, which complement each other. If a book can have both, with novel and attractive plots and very successful characters, then as long as the author is not as lazy as a tortoise, the popularity of this book is destined to be a classic.

But we are talking about newcomers, especially many newcomers, who have only read many books, written compositions or papers, even business copywriting or various reports, and have never written long and short stories.

Then at this time, don't rush to write down the opening of your novel, but write down something called an outline.

Newcomers, including many old people, find the outline useless. We often meet such an author and tell the editor clearly that I am going to write 2 million words. How do I know what the future plot will be like? Such a long book will naturally know the subsequent development. I want to write on the same day, or even think while writing.

Believe me, no matter what a newcomer thinks, he won't understand that writing is actually a very painful thing, which consumes a lot of energy and time. Before you start writing, or after writing thousands of words, you won't be bored with what you wrote, and you won't feel the pain of not writing.

But after writing tens of thousands of words, you will find that the future development of what you have written is vague. The story is nothing, and the sense of failure that you don't know what to write will drive you crazy. In addition, at that time, no one looked down on the new people who were not popular, which hit the writing mood. The red one was scolded, which hit the writing mood. Coupled with unbearable tiredness, this is the most likely to appear in writing, and it is also the first front. This is the evil influence. According to our experience, 30% of eunuch's works are here. This hurdle is the first Longmen.

With the outline, it is easier to get here and know what your subsequent drama is. When you don't know what to write, the outline will become a pillar to support you. You can read it and recall what kind of story and plot you want to write this book. I can even recall why I thought my book would be popular and turned into income.

Even the old author, after writing hundreds of thousands of words, the creativity and passion of creating this story disappeared in the passage of time. Having an outline can also make the author have a better ending, rather than being simply scolded by readers.

Another point is that new authors often deviate from their own themes. For example, physical education is good, but it will jump out to repair the truth and work miracles. Or adventure, but suddenly there are many campuses, and the highlights of the original work disappear in such a turning point. And having an outline is very helpful for the author to grasp the overall situation of the work.

After talking about the benefits of so many outlines, how can we write a suitable outline?

Or some authors say that I have written tens of thousands of words, ranging from the composition of the world to the making of a pistol. Isn't this a good outline?

Then I answer clearly here that setting is not equal to the outline. In essence, the outline is to frame the relationship between the skeleton of your imaginary plot and the main characters, and then writing is to plump up the skeleton with words. As for the details, that is not what the outline needs to pay attention to. You can write that the protagonist has nothing to do with paying the bill in a restaurant with gold, or you can write that a million troops are fighting. But these are not the outline to consider.

My personal outline is based on time, framing the time when the protagonist experiences things, and then deciding the ending. This is the general outline I used. Then each large paragraph, about100000 words, will make a more detailed outline. Determine which characters you are currently writing about.

As I write in Yue Feng Street now, I have written about 500,000 words, and the outline of the main line is about 5,000 words. It determines the protagonist's character, origin, opening and ending, and main enemies. Then there are three outlines, each of which is about 1500 words.

Believe me, before you start writing, it will be of great help to the author to write down the outline of the story you want to write in thousands of words. There is no good or bad outline, as long as you can determine the main line of the work. As long as you are willing to write, you will have a suitable outline. Remember, the outline is the main line of the story you describe.

In addition to the outline, as I said earlier, many writers like to write a lot of settings before the plot begins. What ethnic composition, mainland environment, ethnic distribution, warship configuration and so on. However, in the internet age, how can readers have the patience and obligation to read a lot of boring and unfocused explanatory texts? Well, maybe the author is still very wronged. I wrote a setting. Can they start with the text? I don't have to show them this, okay?

My answer is, then why did you send it? Readers often read books from scratch, especially new books, and often accidentally click in. But when you open the reading surface, there is a lot of boring information. At this time, ten readers, at least five closed the page and left. No matter how you write the settings and how you think, you should not send them to your own works. I've been at the starting point for so long, and I haven't seen any book with a long set of settings that can be popular from the beginning.

It is best to set it in the plot and reveal it to the readers a little bit. On the one hand, it is easier for readers to accept the information in the plot, on the other hand, they can also write their own words.

There is a serious problem with too many settings. For the starting point editorial department, every book with more than 30,000 words will be displayed on the editing worksheet. The two editors cross-checked, and according to the first 30 thousand words of the work, they divided it into four items: worthless, follow-up, key follow-up and signing.

After that, only the editors who follow up the works will always pay attention to the plot development of the book to see if it is worth signing. If a book is opened with 30,000 to 40,000 words, and then the editor reads a lot of setting materials, the content is pitiful, and it is basically directly classified as worthless. Therefore, it is suicidal to at least develop at the starting point and write a lot of settings in front of the book.

Guide to starting point recommendation list

The recommendation list with different functions and characteristics is a special landscape from the beginning. For readers, each recommendation list gives them a guide to choose their favorite books, while for authors, each recommendation list is the best publicity for their works. The following briefly introduces the starting point of various manual lists and the principle of automatic lists.

First, manually list:

The first manual list mainly includes cover recommendation, strong recommendation, Sanjiang recommendation, midfield recommendation, album recommendation and vip page cover recommendation. Among them, the first three are the most prominent in the publicity effect of the works and the reading influence of readers. The following mainly introduces the principles of these three suggestions.

1, cover recommendation:

Located in the most conspicuous position on the right side of the homepage, it has been on the list for two days and has unparalleled publicity effect in other lists. Almost all published works can easily enter the weekly hit list, so the requirements for cover recommendation are also the most stringent. The main principles are as follows:

The VIP works signed at the starting point are selected and evaluated by the starting point evaluation Committee.

Starting point evaluation committee: all editors of the starting point editorial department and the starting point stationmaster.

2. Strongly recommend:

Located on the left side of the home page, the recommendation effect is second only to the cover recommendation, and it is also the most routine and main recommendation method. Push cycle: one week, change time: Sunday. The principles of listing are as follows:

Starting point VIP signing works; The number of words in the work is more than100000 words; There are tens of thousands of words in hand, and sensitive works are not recommended. Five of them were jointly selected by the editorial department of the starting point, and the remaining ten were arranged according to the date of receiving the VIP agreement.

3. Sanjiang recommended:

Located on the right side of the home page, below the cover recommendation, unlike the cover recommendation, Sanjiang recommendation is mainly aimed at new books, and the period of forced promotion is one week, and the time for changing the list is Sunday. See the announcement of Sanjiang Pavilion Forum for listing principles.

Second, the automatic list:

The starting point automatic list includes total click list, total recommendation list, total collection list, total vocabulary list, monthly click list, monthly recommendation list, weekly click list, weekly recommendation list, new book list and recently added wisdom brain recommendation system. What is worth mentioning in these lists are the list of newcomers and the list of new books. For new books, it is a very rare publicity opportunity to have a place on the list of new books.

■ Q&A of New Writers at the Starting Point

Up to now, the original literature website is no longer the kind of fun gathering place that was limited to a small number of people a few years ago. With the continuous birth of excellent works and the rapid growth of readers, online original literature has gradually formed another literary trend. The successful operation of VIP works and the initial development of simplified Chinese characters in the domestic market have added more chips worthy of attention to this change trend. More and more professional or amateur writers have begun to participate in it, but they want to break through among many well-known giants. Often hundreds of thousands of words of hard work, only a few clicks and recommendations are exchanged, which makes onlookers feel chilling. Does it mean that only the lucky ones can get the favor of readers? The answer is of course no. The reason why it will be buried is that new writers still don't understand the laws of this online literature market. This guide is for all new writers.

I don't expect all the authors who read this guide to be popular, but at least I can avoid taking some detours. However, before starting this guide, I hope that every new writer can do the following multiple-choice questions:

The purpose of your writing is:

Answer: Write satisfactory works and show them to people you like.

B: Be famous, publish and make money.

The writer who chooses A depends on the chapter of struggle, and the writer who chooses B depends on the chapter of survival. And friends who are hesitant between AB or want to have both, congratulations, you can close this page directly and point out that the works that are both applauded and popular are beyond my power.

A chapter of struggle

A writer who chooses this path must first have a good attitude and always keep in mind the purpose of his creation, but even so, he will still be shaken by the bleak click recommendation and the desolation that no one cares about. Struggling between cruel self-harm and hard support is the future that friends who choose this road are likely to face.

Writing itself is not a smooth road, but to write satisfactory works, it is more necessary to choose a bumpy path next to this avenue, which requires great perseverance and courage to persist. Click on the recommendation and don't expect too much. As for cheering, you need to change it with your own efforts.

Basically, this road can be simply summarized as the process of propagation-absorption-modification-re-propagation.

The so-called communication refers to the communication with readers of works. Although new works are not easy to be fired up, in general, a few readers will find that if they are lucky, they may meet readers who really love the works from the beginning. This is the original audience. The only way to find these initial audiences is to study book reviews. It is called research because it is difficult for beginners to find real book reviews under the cover of many tigers. No matter how gorgeous, no matter how wonderful, there is a common feature, that is, it will never be reflected in any characters, backgrounds, plots and details of the works. As long as you master this principle, your ability to identify tiger balm will reach the primary level, and then you can hone and grow in actual combat. After discovering the real book review, you should take the initiative to contact the readers who wrote the book review. Don't let go of the shelf. Shelves are meaningless until it becomes a giant. Only through communication can we find more deficiencies in our works and enter the next stage of absorption.

Absorption is easier to operate than the former. Generally speaking, old readers have richer "reading" calendars than new writers. Of course, those who have jumped ship from old readers are not included. Since the development of online original literature, there have been more than 10,000 kinds of books. It is not impossible to read thousands of books online. If you know that the' reading' calendar is higher, your vision and brushwork will be improved accordingly.

After absorbing it, I revised it, and my level improved. I'm afraid what I wrote before has been riddled with holes. So don't hesitate to modify it immediately. Although readers don't like reading the revised chapters, they don't care about pushing. Why do you care about these little things? Perfecting your own article is the key.

Be sure to look at the results after the revision and continue to communicate well. But the object of communication can be not limited to readers, but also other authors we know in the process of absorption, and then we can repeat the same process and constantly improve ourselves. As long as the work is good enough, it will always be recognized by people and have its own fixed audience. As long as you stick to it, you will be able to finish a work that will satisfy you.

It seems simple to say, but it is not easy to do in practice. I'm afraid that the word "endure loneliness" is a vocabulary that primary A students must understand. However, the author who can finish it has also got a spiritual exercise, and the finished work definitely has its shining value. One day it will be recognized and shine.

The end of the road to struggle may be hope, or there may be nothing. If you don't have enough courage and endurance and know yourself, don't choose this path easily.
