The difference between post-reading writing and traditional writing

This is the biggest difference between traditional writing and online writing!

Yin Hua

Recently, I participated in the "after-work writing class" of the online writer Zhao Xing. Suddenly, it seems to open another world. I was shocked to find that there is such a big difference between traditional writing and online writing, and I felt a lot.

This is how Baidu Encyclopedia explains the online text. Webwriting refers to writing instantly on the Internet with a computer and posting it to the Internet at any time. On the other hand, traditional writing is to write on paper with a pen and publish it through paper media. This paper mainly expounds from two aspects: the use of tools and communication methods. As far as the actual situation is concerned, what can really define the concepts of online writing and traditional writing is probably the most direct and ultimate embodiment. As for the use of tools, in fact, many traditional writers may also type on computers, but they still publish them through paper media. The computer is just a speed-up tool, which is more convenient and faster, that's all.

So, why is this state? What is the fundamental difference between online writing and traditional writing?

Below, I want to explain it from these aspects, combined with the examples of some friends around me.

1, the learning background and theoretical basis may be different.

With such a learning background, they usually consider the main idea of the work before writing. Is the theme clear and profound, and is its significance significant and positive? Can it reflect people's life or mental state in a certain period? Can you create a more avant-garde style? Can you design a more exquisite layout on the text structure? Is the plot tortuous, delicate and euphemistic, and is it compact and clear between chapters and paragraphs? Is the artistic conception permanent, and can it give people unlimited space for reverie and aftertaste? Is the characterization vivid? Can you add a typical, representative, unique and profound character image to the literary corridor? Winning Lu Xun Literature Award, Contradictory Literature Award and even Nobel Prize in Literature is often their biggest dream or countless seemingly jokes! Therefore, such a conception process and writing ideas actually revolve around the quality of the work itself in the final analysis.

Network writers are different. Because of the openness and inclusiveness of the Internet, anyone can express personal opinions and opinions. Its publication does not need to be reviewed and selected by professional newspaper and magazine editors. As long as you can type on the computer and have the desire to tell, you can write online and express any opinions you want. No one will strictly examine your language structure and theme. Especially in today's society, almost everyone writes, and the entry threshold is relatively lower. The cultural background of screenwriters is also uneven, and quite a few people have not been systematically exposed to literary theory knowledge, relying only on passion. Of course, among online writers, most people must have started writing because they love literature and have something to say in their hearts. There are even many writers who are academic or have profound literary skills and accomplishments. They have written excellent works on the Internet, which are widely circulated! However, what I want to emphasize here is that relatively speaking, you must understand Einstein's theory of relativity!

2. Different ways of thinking

First of all, from the state of the writing process, traditional writers tend to think collectively, while online writers tend to think divergently. Why do you say that? But also from their writing purpose and focus.

Traditional writers have a relatively systematic knowledge of literary theory, and their writing direction is relatively firm, focusing on the study of the text itself. To learn a specific subject, you must do a lot of repeated practice training according to the existing knowledge reserves, constantly dig and summarize, find out some internal logical laws and experiences of knowledge, and thus find out the most correct and perfect truth that adapts to your growth among many phenomena. Therefore, for traditional writers, it is necessary to be more specific and profound, plunge into life, tap the depth and thickness of life, and then combine the theoretical knowledge learned to create satisfactory works. All these phenomena have the temperament of collective thinking.

Online writers are really passionate about writing, but there is also a very important measure, that is, whether they can realize knowledge to make money and get more fans and traffic. In this case, if you want to make money and realize knowledge, you can't play cards according to your own personality at will. You must be suitable for the market and meet the tastes and aesthetics of various occasions and people, because they are your last judges and your most reliable parents! Therefore, they are required to consider the acceptance of the audience in the writing process. Because network writers often have to study not only the aesthetic feeling of the text itself and the theme layout of the text structure, but also the fields of their readers, their habits and social trends, and integrate comprehensive knowledge points. In this writing state, from a certain point of view, compared with traditional writers, their thinking needs to have a sharper sense of smell and comprehensive knowledge integration ability, that is, they tend to be more divergent. They need to broaden their horizons, expand the width and length of knowledge, and realize another leap from quantitative change to qualitative change!

In addition, these two relatively different modes of thinking, over time, may indirectly affect the behavior habits of traditional writers and online writers, making them gather more and disperse more. That is, we often say introverted thinking and extroverted thinking. In the long run, people who are introverted may be more suitable for research because of their calmer hearts and quieter personality characteristics. And extroverted thinking will prefer innovation and change, be good at exploration, be able to change roles more freely, have stronger adaptability, and become an excellent generalist more easily. Of course, it should be emphasized here that relativity is important for three times.

3. Technical problems

In such an era, technical problems in the field of writing sound like a joke, but in fact there are a lot of them. I remember a few years ago, there was a radio program in Shanghai called "A Jian Night in Shanghai", and one of the hosts, A Jian, made such a theme, called technical refugees. In reality, there are many people who don't know technology, and one of them just can't use computers.

Get down to business.

I have a friend, exactly around 20 1 1, who finds that writing can become his hobby! Indeed, he regards it as a business. In his spare time later, he also wrote some essays seriously and systematically. At first, he was very excited. He kept contributing several articles and just stared at several famous paper magazines in China. It seemed that he had invested in other things, and his aesthetic level was very low, and he didn't look at others at all. In his words, the score is not enough! Of course, you don't have to tell me the result, all of them are sinking into the sea! Later, I stopped voting and shopping online. He said that those fantasies and romances are purely because some people live a boring and empty life, which is shoddy and has no beauty at all! I was shocked and laughed at him and said that he had built a utopia for himself! Later, he told me that there was another very important reason. In fact, he doesn't know how to do it online. Where should I write it and send it? On this day, he will write a series of questions, such as whether he can write high-quality things, which makes him always timid about writing online. Another reason is also related to her axis personality. He said that he likes to put the written words aside and look back later. If he finds that he can't stand it, he will erase it immediately. After all, he is still so short of fire. What can I say? He has to go through this first! ?

In addition, he is an old-timer and a traditional writer. He has published a book, which has been shot intermittently for nearly twenty years, and the manuscript paper alone weighs dozens of pounds. It sounds incredible, just like Cao Xueqin's time, but it's true and it does exist. I met him once and asked this question. I said, why don't you try typing on the computer? This will be faster and easier for many people. The elder said frankly with a little shyness: I can't use that thing! If you use a computer to write, I'm afraid you can't write what you clearly want. I didn't say anything. I believe what he said is true. There is nothing to hide. Sometimes some writing habits really affect the inspiration of generate! Maybe you will say that such a situation is rare after all! Yes, there will be fewer and fewer in the future, but there is no denying that technical problems do exist, and there will be skilled refugees now and in the future! Of course it has nothing to do with literature.

Therefore, to sum up, there is no essential difference between traditional writing and online writing, and there is no so-called distinction. As a medium of communication between human beings and the outside world, writing in any form is just an expression, only in the direction and focus of writing, in the field and in the audience. On the contrary, in some specific writing moments, we all face the same problem, and we all need to think about the theme, layout and words, so that the whole will be meticulous and smooth, and the theme will be interpreted more perfectly!

If you must ask, what is the most fundamental difference between traditional writing and online writing? Then, I can tell you that the biggest difference between them is their different lifestyles and completely different living conditions! If you want to move from relatively closed traditional writing to open and broad online writing, or want to return to silent traditional writing from lively online writing, no problem! The problem is: no matter what kind of writing, we should be mentally prepared, adjust our lifestyle and meet new challenges! No matter what kind of writing, let yourself sink down and work hard!
