    Chapter Index

    I don’t really like writing single chapters, a friend said a while ago that it’s best to write single chapters that communicate with the reader as well as summarize yourself, and then talk about the book so the reader doesn’t get lost ……..

    反正吧啦吧啦一大堆,我一想,有道理,便开了单章。

    Volume 2, so far, is two-thirds written, and apart from the opening Foo Foo case, it’s mostly about daily life, and playing with personas. So the chase subscription is down and up.

    There is an interesting phenomenon, at the end of the first volume, readers yelled: we want to read the daily, not the case. We want to read about the everyday, not the pretenders, pretenders are no fun.

    What really happened, however, is that when I write about the everyday, the subscription chase goes down, and when I write about pretending, the subscription chase goes up by leaps and bounds.

    Men’s mouths, lying ghosts.

    Ugh!

    A word about the difference between Volume 2 and Volume 1. Volume 1 is mostly about the case, so the plot is better paced and layered.

    The second volume, on the other hand, will have to lay the groundwork for the follow-up, and some characters will need to spend a lot of ink on them, because the subsequent plot is useful to lay the groundwork first. A lot of seemingly useless daily plots will actually carry the day by the end of the second volume.

    The overall pacing is weaker than in the first volume, but the characterization is, for sure, stronger than in the first volume.

    As a little spoiler, there’s going to be a big breakout at the end of Volume 2, and then it’s the twist of the whole book. Of course, I haven’t figured out exactly how to write it yet.

    This book has been written so far, the results are unimaginably good, so it’s even more like walking on thin ice. Sometimes too much care about the rhythm and cool points, but let yourself fall behind, missing the aura of the first volume.

    For example, the opening hookah listening diary ah, such as the sea king’s fish farming envelope, and then Xu Jingyin’s stupid operation, and so on.

    They don’t help the main storyline, but they can flesh out a book, give it more depth, and raise the bar. White and cool books can be hot for a while and then look back years later and realize it’s nothing more than that.

    And books that focus on portraying characters will remain in the hearts of readers for many years.

    That’s the good thing about them, the bad thing is that you can’t write too much.

    If I spend a lot of ink on the characters and daily life, it will definitely cause the plot of the whole book to pull the crotch, and you can’t have both the fish and the bear’s paw. Daily life and characters are very well written, but the plot pulls the crotch of the book everyone has read a lot.

    By the way, I’m going to spit out another bitter water, the Blood Slaughter Thousand Miles case, the book chase has dropped a bit. Mainly because at the very beginning, I haven’t figured out the details of the whole case, so it’s hard to water it down for days, hahaha, it’s my fault.

    But there’s no way around it, case flow books are different from other books. With other books, the plot has a general direction, and then you can open up the word and just do it.

    Investigating a case is different, you have to think of all the details before you can put pen to paper. For the simple reason that you have to lay an ambush.

    Most authors bury ambushes, which isn’t a big deal, but most authors only bury long term ambushes, the kind you bury and leave alone.

    What’s really hard is a dense ambush of short lengths. And the hardest of all is the short story followed by another short story followed by another short story ………… It tests both the pen and the brain, and the average author can’t do it. That’s the trouble with case flow.

    Of course, I’m not even close.

    And the high frequency of updates in online writing makes it hard to have enough time for plotting ……… In those days before, I was doing a fine outline to conceptualize the case while I was watering, and my hair fell out so much that I was quite bald. Although I outline, fine outline, worldview setting, character setting, etc., Linlin totaled nearly 200,000 words.

    Good in the North this case, the fine outline to do almost, which ambush to bury, the heart also has a number.

    It’s not a long piece, and it will be finished this week, if not sooner.

    Well, it’s still not a stand-alone case, it’s linked to other cases, and it’s also a buildup to what follows, in short, a case within a case, or a chain of connected cases, or something.

    I haven’t written in this genre before, but I seem to be quite talented? There is actually a set of tips and methods that are sort of unique. It’s not perfected yet, though, and I’m hoping to detail and perfect that set of tips by the end of this book.

    That way, you can be sure of the quality of your future books, so that one book doesn’t explode and the next one lays the groundwork.

    Of course there are annoyances, namely that the writing is so exhausting, the brain drain is so severe and the mental stress is so great that even my girlfriend doesn’t smell good anymore.

    I’m so tired of overindulging all day, I can’t be happy being a lsp, I just want to be a salted fish that doesn’t do anything.
