The process of novel creation

The process of online novel creation has gone through the following processes.

First of all, the author should be interested in writing novels, and the author has a simple idea in mind.

There are some concrete pictures in my mind. I need to write an outline in order to connect these pictures.

This outline must first determine what kind of novel you are writing, then who are the characters in the novel, what are the characteristics of the specific characters and what is the general trend of the novel.

The author can discuss the rationality of this outline with friends, and of course it is better to have editorial guidance.

If not, congratulations. I can only explore by myself and go online to find my own novels of the same type for reference and comparison.

With the outline, the author should write an opening of 30 thousand words.

Why 30,000 words?

Because the current website generally needs 30,000 words to sign a contract. After writing 30 thousand words, the written outline will be sent to the editor's mailbox, and the editor will consult it. If you think your novel can be signed, the editor will contact you and talk to you about the shortcomings of your novel, or if you think your novel is ok, you can continue writing and wait for publication.

The biggest difference between online novel and traditional novel is that it is published on the Internet and constantly updated, so the novel needs to keep a certain amount of update.

If, in the process of publishing, you encounter a recommendation (that is, more people see the significance of your novel, a display platform), then the author should take the initiative to increase the amount of updates.

If you want to win the recognition of readers, you should not only have the quality of novels, but also keep a certain amount of updates.

There are many authors in the online circle, and their novels are not bad, but they have never been popular. It is likely that they are too lazy to keep up with the update.

In fact, once the work is signed with the editor, the editor will guide the author what to do later, so don't worry too much.
