Lord of the Mysteries: End of the testimonial (below)

lnmao.org, update the latest chapter of Lord of Mysteries as soon as possible!

As a final testimonial, I must review the whole book and talk about the gains and losses in creation before I can know what to keep and what to improve. Well, let me talk about my own creative methodology, of course , This is my own, I don’t mean that it is suitable for other people, suitable for other platforms, it is very good to understand from it, copying is easy to be unsatisfied, the truth has the difference between absolute truth and relative truth, not to mention this very Private perception, learn from me, live like me, die, right?

Personally, the first and most important keyword in creation is "expression".

The expression is very broad, and the narrow sense can be equal to the theme of the article, the central idea, broadly speaking, anything that hopes to pass on to the reader belongs to the category of expression. We can express our own ideas about human nature and the world. The cognition can also express the satisfaction obtained, as well as the popular, I want to be very happy.

What is my hope to express this mysterious book?

One is a novel, interesting, complex and fun world view produced by the fusion of some Western mysticism knowledge with the elements of Cthulhu Mythology and SCP Foundation;

The second is a ray of light in darkness and despair ("Yes, it is..." Amon is about to jump out, and Xiao Ke covers his mouth, "It is just below.") This ray of light is both human compassion It is also a tribute to human race's courage. Dark despair is not only the situation of workers and peasants during the first industrial revolution, but also the Old One, Evil God brought by the elements of the myth of Cthulhu.

The third is human nature, divinity confrontation and integration. Why do I position Xiaoke's path to Divinator, and the end point is Fool, on the one hand, it needs the storyline itself, and Divinator, the early path, can naturally unfold many mysticism elements, interestingly, on the other hand, this mysterious book The implied subject is, well, not implicit, I have written it in the introduction: a legend of Fool.

In other words: a journey of Fool.

The very important element of this book, tarot card, has a more recognized interpretation that the overall description is a journey of Fool, starting from Fool and ending at the end of the world.

I certainly can’t copy the interpretation and imagery of tarot card, and will make certain modifications in conjunction with the mysterious book, so a Fool journey refers to the gradual change from man to god, referring to human nature, divinity confrontation and Spiritual travel brought by fusion.

This point, because I hope that Xiao Ke can always have a human side and a warm side, so there is no intuitive description from his psychological activities, more from others, from his interaction with the entire world and surrounding human race The frequency and depth are more indirect.

So, in the later period, no matter how much Xiao Ke emphasized his humanity, the reading feeling to everyone is that he is farther and farther away from the human race society, more and more lonely, more and more abstract, and gradually no sense of flesh, This is a journey of Fool.

This structural design is actually a bit tricky, because my spiritual sense is derived from previous books. Except for martial arts, some people say that the later the protagonist, the more inhuman, the more disconnected from reality, no longer rooted in the world, rooted For the feeling of society, then, I simply changed this change from the author's unconscious to conscious. This spiritual sense came into being after reading some tarot books.

For comparison, the first point is barely reached, the second part of the light part is good, the dark part is good in the early stage, and the later level is weakened as the power level is increased.

This is indeed a problem, and it is also a mysterious structural problem in this book, and it is also the fourth part of the "structure" in the methodology that I will talk about later.

Returning to the topic, starting from Sequence Three, the whole book is in the mysticism part, and there is actually a certain style split in the unknown fear part. As far as the elements of Cthulhu are concerned, once the unknown is stated, if you really step on the stage, you will lose most of the charm. Therefore, the confusion and madness in the later period are well maintained, and darkness, despair, mystery and insignificance must be lacking.

Before opening the book, I was hesitant to write only Sequence Three, and the other as the background, so that the overall style of the mysterious world would be very unified, that kind of fascinating, accompanied by fear and trembling sense of exploration, mystery You can get through the full text.

But in the end I am still a bit greedy. I hope that this mysterious book can outline the overall world view, and then I can play it calmly under this world view.

The third point, my personal score is above the pass, not more than 80, mainly because the heart is not cruel, and the performance is not intuitive enough.

After saying "expression", the second set of keywords in my creation is "interesting and interesting".

That is to say, when you have determined what you want to express, then you have to examine whether your subject matter and possible expressions are appropriate.

It’s not that some subjects can’t be written, excluding external factors. Whether a subject can be written is only interesting and interesting.

Home cooking depends on who does it and how.

Well, human race is essentially novelty and novelty. Of course, I also pursue refreshment and emotion. The latter two are dealt with in the "emotional" part. Here I will only talk about novelty and novelty.

New does not mean purely rare, and strangeness is not purely hunting for strangeness. They should be closer to something new and different from others.

It is interesting and interesting. In terms of meaning, the difference is quite big. Interesting means more fun and novelty. If it is interesting, you can add a meaning of "can ponder".

Interesting is not necessarily fun and funny, but it can make people immersed in it, it is very interesting, it can be pondered, and it can diverge its own imagination.

Interesting is not necessarily interesting. Nowadays it is simply relaxed, funny, and there are many novels that play terriers. There is also a big market.

Of course, the two can also be combined. It is interesting to make people find it interesting, willing to think, study, substitute and fantasy, then it is double attractive.

If it is interesting, if it can be interesting in writing, character interaction, and details, it can also add a finishing touch and make everyone more chasing.

The mysterious book, my goal for myself is to make it interesting first, and then to pursue fun. Now, look at the system of 22 sequence paths, 220 kinds of magical medicine, nine sources and acting method. Strange, interesting, and interesting.

As for behavior, interaction, details, etc., I also try not to be monotonous and not boring, and I still meet the requirements most of the time.

Of course, there is room for improvement in this area.

My third creative keyword is "substitute".

Don’t think of YY as soon as you listen to substitutions. In fact, there are many types of substitutions. Indeed, many people substitute into the protagonist, but some people substitute into the protagonist his father, his mother, his brother, his girlfriend, and some into the supporting role. , Into Audience, the role of readers, into the world view, into the community of the earth, into the sacred sense of science, into the classical culture, and so on, and so on.

An author determines that he wants to "express" something, and also finds interesting and interesting entry in the subject matter and expression. Then the next question is to think about which angle to let the main readers enter, which will determine your adoption. What kind of narrative technique, essay structure and foreshadowing.

Before I added a three-hole brain hole to the public account, I was actually thinking about the idea of ​​"substituting". I hope that the main readers will substitute the knowledge of the earth with a lively and proud attitude. To see a native grow up with the help of earth knowledge and have a refreshing experience.

The mysterious book, in addition to the common protagonists, also put more energy on the power system, magical medicine, acting method, and the overall world view, so a lot of suspicious decryption techniques are used, and a little bit of hooks, one Start a little bit and let everyone immerse in.

The fourth creative keyword is "structure".

After taking the first three steps and thinking about the outline of the story, we must conceive the overall structure of the novel based on these.

So, I said that the mysterious ending is completely predictable from the beginning. It can be seen before and after, fateful reincarnation, and story ending. These are all developed under a large structure. Personally, This has a strange beauty.

In addition to the overall structure of the novel, there is a separate structure for each part. The structure of the first part I have talked about before. I am very proud of it and did a good job. The structure of the second and third parts is also about After that, I rarely mention the word afterwards. This is mainly because the further you write, the greater the restraint and the smaller the degree of freedom. If you can’t think of a good structure and a good cut, I would prefer to use the most common or used There is nothing special to tell about the story structure.

Among them, the fourth part is progressive, the last detonation volt line type, the fifth part is the vortex type, the larger the volume, the larger the final change, the sixth part seems to have said, the plain type between the front and back peaks, The seventh part is a sudden eruption in the daily travel, which is close to the structure of the second part as a whole. The eighth part is to continuously push the climax, and then the after rhyme ends.

Here, because some of the volumes were not clear enough when they were formally written, or they didn’t know how to achieve the desired effect, resulting in rhythm problems in the middle, or having to lose the rationality of the plot. something.

This is all experience and lessons. In the future, when you open a new volume, you should try to make your own structure and grasp of the structure as clear as possible, instead of having a concept, try vaguely. To explore, to write, in this way, good luck, good condition, can catch spiritual sense, maybe there are surprises, but most of the time there will be many problems.

The fifth group of creative keywords is "reality, reality".

This is actually developed from the third keyword "substitute", I initially felt that the most substituting, perhaps the most realistic environment, and then surpass the reality on this basis, and the most realistic nothing The question is our daily life, it is the urban theme.

Under this premise, the city is definitely the easiest subject to be substituted. So, after the end of my life, I thought of integrating mystery into the city, which is both reality and beyond reality. At the same time, I also practiced writing daily writing details Ability, so with the book of Budo, in fact, the effect of the early period was pretty good, but then I found that I underestimated a problem, that is, the limitation of the city itself, because this was not fully considered when setting, resulting in the later period There is no way to start, the story repeats, lacking change.

My thoughts have been confirmed in some popular themes in recent years, which is quite gratifying. However, 404's eyes are focused on urban themes, which has led to the failure of the big trend I imagined.

After writing martial arts, I have a deeper understanding of substitution and reality. I think that "reality" can reflect the essence more than "reality".

As long as it is real enough to immerse the reader, it can achieve the realistic effect, and it is more pursuit of novelty.

So, when I write mysteries, I check a lot of information and enrich the details to make this world come to life, so that everyone can naturally immerse themselves in reading, knowing what to eat, what to use, how much it costs, and customs. What is the habit.

In fact, it has something in common with the 3A masterpieces in recent years. It is open, free, but real enough.

Realism, immersion, this is an idea that slowly and clearly after I wrote the martial arts and the process of writing the mystery. At this time, I really refined my complete creative methodology.

Of course, this way of writing is really tired, very tired.

This point, the mystery is done well in the early and middle stages. Later, after the sequence is improved, there is a certain decrease. The next step, I need to think about how to create reality at a high power level.

The sixth keyword is "soft".

I remember summing up in the previous part, but I won’t say much here — mainly because I wrote so many words in one breath, my thoughts began to diverge, I wanted to have fun, I wanted to be lazy.

"Gentleness", my understanding is that there is enough foreshadowing in the turning of the plot, there is enough fermentation in the process of emotional advancement, and there is enough release, if the former is not doing well, turning for the turning, and climaxing and climaxing, It will only be abrupt and cannot reflect the impact, and the latter will easily become spoiled and sensational.

In this respect, I have been restraining myself. If it is not suitable for haircutting, never use a knife, not a knife for a knife. If a main character cannot die with value, die properly, die with shock, It's better to be alive. Trauma is not gentle enough for trauma.

Similarly, don’t be blind and sensational where you shouldn’t be sensational, and express your emotions clearly when to restrain, what can break out, the overall atmosphere does not support this, and so on.

Also, you can't beat your face for the sake of hitting your face. For the sake of coolness and coolness, the plot will be promoted, and the coolness will naturally be soft, not embarrassing.

This point, in terms of mystery, I did a good job, only one by one times more than asking myself the chapter, but there are traces.

The seventh keyword is "person":

As I said before, I am a story first, then a character, and there are certain differences from a character first, then a story, but from the martial arts, I increasingly think that the character is also very important.

A novel, the world view is the skeleton, the plot is flesh, the characters are blood, and there are no good characters, then this novel will be dead and dull. It is difficult to make a large feature in every part interesting enough to attract It is also difficult for people to create resonance, emotion and various emotions.

In the modeling of characters, apart from the hierarchical nature of character setting, I can slowly figure out a word: "interaction".

The character's image builds on the character's interaction. Individual psychological interactions, personal actions, once or twice are useful, and the number of times must be monotonous, thin, and boring.

With the interaction, the characters will come alive and show themselves differently in different interactions.

I won’t go into details, because I have written too much, so I want to finish it soon.

Also, the extreme characters must come from the extreme plot, and the extreme plot must be able to shape the extreme characters, the two are not completely separated.

In the mysterious book, I have gained a certain amount from fuzzy cognition to clear use, and I have also shaped some good characters. Of course, some characters are hindered by the length and the growth curve of the characters. Keeping up with Xiaoke can only be regarded as completing the first half, and I hope that the second part of the future can be better portrayed.

Overall, although Amon is annoying to many people, his character's overall completion is the highest except for Xiao Ke.

Similarly, I have some problems with the shaping of many villains. As I said in Part 7, I am always used to setting too strong, lacking enough opportunities to play, having little emotional accumulation, and even less interaction. change.

In addition, combined with the keyword "real", the characters still have to pay attention to whether they are distorted. Sometimes, the funnyness is too much, the play terrier is too much, it is easy to distort the character and degenerate into the kind of most anime Characters, of course, this does not mean that such characters will not be attractive, whether or not distortion depends on the overall atmosphere of the story.

The eighth keyword is "change".

This is the one most mentioned in the summary. The most taboo in a novel is a layer of invariance, whether it is the bright line or the dark line, there must be some changes, otherwise it will not be able to support a long space, even if it is The simplest structure of the wireless wind fantasy text is to bring changes through changing maps again and again to eliminate the sense of repetition in the plot.

In the process of writing the mystery, the middle part of the fourth part, the upgrade line is pulled too long, resulting in insufficient changes and the plot tension is reduced. Before the martial arts, it was difficult to start later, the plot began to repeat, and the fighting became more and more boring. All of this has been said, and we should improve it in the future, pay attention to it, be aware, and prevent it in advance.

The ninth keyword is "details".

Details, the devil is always in the details, which is also the key to the implementation of "substitute", "real", "soft" and "character".

Lack of details, there is no doubt that it will not be true, cannot be substituted, the interaction is boring, and the transition is abrupt.

This is a big topic. Please allow me to be lazy and stop talking, anyway, this is not a writing class.

In short, there are many details in this mysterious book, so I have a texture, characters, pictures, and emotional resonance. I am very satisfied with this, but in the later battles, it is too abstract to express abstraction, Conceptualization and the gradual lack of detail is indeed a big problem.

At this point, I currently have some ideas. This is the spiritual sense that JOJO brings to me. That is to give the rules and restrictions of the ability. Try to keep the rules and restrictions as simple as possible but clear enough, and then make an article in this framework. In this way, the ability has boundaries, and details are guaranteed.

This is a point that can be improved in the future.

The tenth keyword is "emotion."

Written here, I really don't want to write it anymore, I'm too tired and emotional

Hey, in fact, many emotions have been talked about in the web Author, and many people even use it as the core of their creative methods. The whole story is planned and paved around how to arouse readers' emotions.

I also attach great importance to emotions, because a good climax, a good segment, a good character will eventually contain or bring emotions, without emotions, then the story is dry, lacking enough Appeal.

I don’t want to talk about other ways of hatred. I know more, use less, and I prefer to use plot conflicts to advance.

However, for emotions, I will always pay attention to whether the progress of emotions is natural, smooth, and whether there is too much interruption in the middle, otherwise I will not be able to accumulate climax and shock.

In addition, you can’t equate emotions with hatred and vent, and love and justice, no, touch, affection, satisfaction, etc., etc., a good author should try to enrich his weapons storehouse, There are a few more types of emotional mobilization.

In the mystery, I give emotions as a whole and are very restrained, and I have been making the emotions softer. Therefore, so many creative keywords definitely do not exist alone, they all cooperate with each other and are naturally integrated.

About the classic scenes of emotional expression in the mystery, I can recall some of them with my eyes closed, so I don’t boast, mainly because I’m too lazy to write. In short, I’m doing well, the next one hopes to increase the outbreak of emotional catharsis, Let it be organically combined with other emotional expressions.

The eleventh keyword replaces the climax with "impact". Scenes such as "Chernobyl" are performances. The 12 keyword... Forget it, don't write, too tired, ink After vomiting, anyway, those are less important.

Write out my creative ideas. I’m not afraid of being learned. On the contrary, I really want someone to learn, which means I can have a lot of books that suit my taste, but such novel creation is destined to be very tiring. Of course, it will be very satisfying.

Well, the number of final reports. The secrets are now set at 109,000. The follow-up order is always very high because of the bonus of the last part. The overall is a little higher than the seventh part. Most of the time, 60,000 Hovering between 60,000, the lowest is 58,000, the highest is the last three chapters, all broke through 70,000, and the last chapter is now 90,000 in 24 hours. .

After writing the mysterious creation, sum up the gains and losses, and then talk about the new book.

Well, I won’t open Secret 2 directly. I’m worried that I will repeat some of this stuff. I hope to write something else and change my mind before I accumulate.

The new book said before, choose one of waste soil and xianxia. When writing mysteriously, I hope that the next book can be written in a light-hearted and fun way, so at first it was biased towards xianxia, and later someone told me that the protagonist can be dealt with crazy and let him dilute the waste. The tone, it seems quite interesting.

In short, I'm now balanced again. Wait for my rest for a while, empty my brain, and then ask myself, which one do I want to write the most?

The new book is initially determined to be in mid-November. I will announce it on the public account at a specific time. From now to that time, I will serialize a 20,000 or 30,000 small fan here, and then successively and irregularly appear on the public account. Put some mysterious settings, write some small fan, at the same time, announce the theme of the new book, some settings, solicit dragon sets, etc., search for "wuzei1985", the anime avatar is that.
