From the starting point to today, nearly 60,000 original books have been collected, which is inseparable from the support of the authors. Now, almost every day 100-200 new books are applying for storage review, which makes us very happy. In this regard, the starting point is to further standardize the scope of new works. The following help files are hereby issued. I hope that most authors will pay attention when applying for new books:
I. About the subject matter of the work
1. It is better not to write about the political events, famous politicians and their children in China from 1919-2050. Often, too little content is submitted for review when entering the library. The editor is worried that there will be illegal content later, and will first refuse to enter the library and ask you to explain it. It will definitely delay the review time.
2. Although it is claimed to be a virtual background, do not write too obvious prohibited content. For example, country Z, T island, X Tibet, and J country, and then write articles involving sensitive relationships. I advise you not to try it lightly. Even if you change to China, Treasure Island, and Japan, it is prohibited. The country has always paid great attention to such works. The banned books of this type are examples.
3. The political and military descriptions with absolute Chinese characteristics should be used with caution as a background. For example, what kind of chairman, instructor, etc., especially some overhead articles, you have to write overhead, rebirth, and crossing, whether it is struck by lightning, dreaming, car accident, everything is good, why? Do you have to write something about soldier fights, spies, political conspiracies, etc.? You said that you wrote about China, not China. You said you didn’t mention what country it is, but how many countries have such distinctive titles? The editor will be very cautious when he sees it, and is afraid that you will write something later, so that you can only explain it clearly and make changes before entering the library.
4. Never write about pornography. We don’t welcome this kind of books, and they cannot be written well. Some people say that what I wrote is not pornography. The whole book is all about picking up girls, all about extramarital affairs, all about getting involved, such as “Me and My 34 Women”, “A Romance of a Strong Man”. You said that you didn’t describe it explicitly or prohibited words? Your subject is very vulgar, who knows if there will be problems after you enter the library? Don’t give an example and argue with the editor that the starting point has a book with a similar theme, that is a historical issue, even if it is a very popular book, the starting point has never restricted their recommendations. And now the starting point is constantly improving and standardizing these standards, so I also hope that authors and friends will maintain a good library environment together.
5. Write **** in the name of animals. During the review, some authors, in the name of “I am a pig”, wrote something very abnormal, wrote about humans and animals, and wrote about animals and animals. They actually asked the editor through the administrator’s message that I did not I wrote about human organs. I didn’t write about human sexual psychology. Why didn’t it pass? Here, we can clearly say that the starting point of this type of subject matter is not included, so please do not upload such works.
Second, about article titles and chapter titles
1. Too pornographic and ambiguous. Many people have a misunderstanding, thinking that using vocabulary with words or ambiguous words as titles or chapter names can attract attention. It is true that it will attract attention, including the attention of editors. The result is that you refuse to enter the warehouse and ask you to change the title. Don’t explain, “My Adult Story” is because you are an adult, so you want to write about how you grew up as an adult. If this is the case, you can call it “My Growth Story”. Don’t always use lust, eroticism, or lewdness, and then explain that what I write is just some of the characteristics of human nature. If you change some characteristics and write well, it will be red. The works that are really successful at the starting point are all due to the smooth writing of the work itself and the outstanding plot conception, rather than thinking about the title. So please author friends to work with us to maintain the original green creative environment of the starting point.
2. Don’t add anything produced by Meng or Ge in the title. The starting point has no liking for these cheating alliances and courts. Please author friends to maintain their own works.
3. Don’t try to spoof in the title. For example, the starting point of the Sanjiang Conferred God Record, Xiefengqu, etc., and then explained that it did not mean that. Respecting others is also respecting oneself.
Three, it is about the content introduction, main text and outer chapter
1. Don’t show any alliances or cabinets and countless advertisements in the introduction. The introduction is for readers to easily know the theme and content of your book. Don’t use it for factional purposes, especially those with a bunch of leagues, pavilions, and a bunch of advertisements. When the editor sees it, they will be deleted directly when they are put in the library. So please don’t put some irrelevant content on the introduction. A refreshing introduction is what readers want to see.
2. Plagiarism must not be stored in the library. This is very clear. The starting point only includes original works. If it is reprinted, it must be certified by the original author, and the original author’s name must be used for uploading. Regarding the criteria and penalties for plagiarism, please read the announcement on the homepage of the starting point.
3. Do not violate the prohibition in the text. The specific requirements have been stated clearly in the topic selection. Here are two more points: The first is about national curse. You have to be cool and the character’s temperament. There is no problem, but please note that if your profanity is too extensive, this is absolutely against the regulations, please respect yourself; It’s about what pornographic descriptions are. Don’t write about all sexual organs or obvious covert terms for **** organs, and don’t write about the process and sexual psychology in the process. We don’t accept H texts, and don’t try to make a side ball. Our standards in this area will only become stricter and too much. We will delete books or even columns when we store them. Even if you are mixed into the library, once you report it, you may not escape the fate of being deleted directly. So please author friends abide by the national regulations.
4. Don’t show unnecessary links with signatures in the outer part, and oppose the call of this and that. If you find that although the book has passed the review, but many of the extras have been stuck, then please be conscious and don’t repeat it again and again. Readers don’t want to always see content that has nothing to do with the work. To respect readers is to respect yourself.
Four. About the word count
1. Starting point, except for American books, all books in the library require more than 5,000 words and three chapters before they are passed.
2. Please do not post the same content and the same chapter many times. Or post some nonsense repeatedly in a chapter.
3. Don’t divide the 2000-3000 words into several chapters and paste them. The editor will read it. If you look at the bar, you will know that the number of words is not enough.
4. Please note that the number of words we require is the number of words in the main text of the work. Your original text reaches this number of words, and it is not enough for you to post a bunch of materials in the work-related or outer parts. So please pay attention to these details. Let your work quickly pass the review.
Five. There are a few common problems.
1. About plagiarism. When all books are applied for storage review, the editor will search the Internet for similar works. So, don’t plagiarize, you can find it, even if it is an article posted by others on a forum or blog. Believe me, the current search engines are still very useful.
2. About the author’s pseudonym. Many articles are not first published at the starting point, so the editor will find similar works on the Internet and first check the author’s name. Therefore, please try to use the same author’s name to post articles, this is also very good for increasing the popularity of the name. In fact, because you cannot register the same name, please give an explanation in advance with the title of “please see” in the work-related work. After editing and confirming, this chapter will be deleted for you, don’t worry. This is much more convenient than leaving a message through the administrator channel.
3. Time for review. We promise to review within 48 hours, but please note that when we say within 48 hours, we mean mid-day. Usually, if you apply in the afternoon from Monday to Friday, you should be able to review the results within 24 hours. But if you submit the review on weekends or weekends, we will review 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 review in the contact administrator on the left side of the author area to send a text message on the site, and please specify your book title and book number in the text message For processing. In addition to the storage issues, please send text messages to the corresponding channel, so that you can get a quick answer. If you send the wrong channel, you will lose everyone’s time, because the editor is to reply to the respective channel, and the error will cause Transit, delay time.
VI. What happens after the book is rejected?
1. If you find that your book has been rejected, please don’t get angry.
2. Please first check whether the number of words submitted is sufficient. If it is insufficient, submit it again after making up.
3. Then consider whether you have violated the rules, such as politics, pornography, and plagiarism. You should know this in your own mind.
4. Please pay attention to whether there is an editor’s message for you in the “work related” section of the article. For example, there is an extra chapter such as “Please read and reply to the author” or “Similar to XX works, please explain”. If there is, please explain or reply according to the requirements inside, directly in that chapter and follow The editor’s request can be explained later, and there is no need to leave a message in the administrator’s mailbox. Reply or operate as required and then resubmit for review.
5. If you find that the book has been deleted and you are sure that you have no illegal content, please check your SMS box to see if there is a text message from the administrator to you, because it is likely that a network error has caused empty chapters in your work. So you need to upload the work again.
Although the above content is trivial, it is indeed often encountered during the warehousing review. Here is a brief summary for your reference.
Newcomer’s Guide to Online Writing (Outline Setting)
When we reviewed the work of the starting point website, the most commonly used word for a book that is worth signing up and has commercial value is that it looks smooth and has a good rhythm.
This leads to a problem that has always been controversial in online business writing. Why a book is considered by many people to be weak in characters, simple in text, and full of logical errors, but this book can be popular and sold. Let those authors who think they have crafted their works turn their eyes into rabbits, cursing the current quality of readers all day.
The question here is, what is the essence of online business writing?
From the perspective of my editor, the plot, stable updates, characters, and text are arranged in sequence. Among them, text is the least important and the most important. The plot is the basis of online works.
From a certain perspective, Internet readers are the best readers in the world and the most forgiving readers. They will not accuse you of typos in your work, wrong descriptions of characters in your work, inconsistent plot settings, or even abandoning this book because of the wrong character names.
What they want is just a smooth story, some characters that can satisfy their little fantasies, even facial characters. Basically, they can be satisfied with plain text without modification. Searching the world, you won’t find a reader who is so easy to satisfy and requires so simple.
When faced with readers whose needs are so simple, hoping to make money on the Internet, authors who make money by writing according to *, cannot satisfy them is your fault, not the reader’s fault.
So when sitting in front of the computer, I want to write a long novel that can be sold for money, I have decided on the subject matter I want to write, and I have thought of the main characters. What should I do next? This is also the time when newcomers are most likely to make mistakes.
The essence of the novel is the plot and the characters, and the two complement each other. If a book can do both, has a novel and attractive plot, and has created very successful characters, then as long as the author is not as lazy as the turtles, the popularity of the book is doomed.
But we are talking about newcomers, especially many newcomers who just read a lot of books, have only written essays or essays, or even commercial copywriting or various reports, and have never written long short stories.
At this time, don’t rush to write the opening of your novel, but write something called an outline.
Newcomers and even many elderly people feel that the outline is useless. We often encounter such authors and tell the editor very clearly that I am going to write two million words. How do I know what the future plot will be like? With such a long book, you will know the follow-up development naturally. I always want to write on the same day, even thinking while writing.
Trust me, no matter what a newcomer thinks, he will never understand that writing is actually a very painful thing that consumes energy and time. Before you start or after writing a few thousand words, you will not feel bored with what you have written and the pain of not being able to write.
But after tens of thousands of words, you will find that the future development of what you have written is blurred. The plot story has no idea, the sense of failure that you don’t know what to write will drive you crazy. Coupled with the fact that newcomers were not popular at the time, no one looked at the writing mood, and the red ones were scolded to attack writing mood. Coupled with the feeling of exhaustion that cannot be written, this is the easiest to appear in writing, and it is also the first front line. It is a magic barrier. According to our experience, 30% of **** works fall here. of. This hurdle is the first dragon gate.
With an outline, it’s easier to go through here. If you know what your follow-up plot is, when you don’t know what to write, the outline will become a pillar to support you. You can read it to remember what was your passion for creating this book, what kind of story you want to write, what kind of plot. I can even recall why I thought my book could be popular and it could become income.
Even the old author, after writing hundreds of thousands of words, the creativity and passion for creating this story disappeared in the passage of time. Having an outline can also allow the author to have a better ending, rather than The simple ending is cursed by readers.
One more point is that new authors often write off their own topics. For example, good sports, but will jump out of cultivation, magic superpowers and the like. Or it’s obviously an adventure, but suddenly a lot of campuses come out, the highlight of the original work disappeared just like this. 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 I write a suitable outline?
Or some authors said that I wrote tens of thousands of words in the setting, as large as the world, as small as the production of a pistol, is this not a good outline?
Then here is my clear answer, setting is not equal to the outline. The outline is essentially to construct the skeleton of the plot you imagined and the relationship between the main characters. The subsequent writing is to use words to make the skeleton full. 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 the gold to pay the bill in the restaurant, or you can write that millions of troops fight melee. But these things are not what the outline needs to consider.
My personal outline is to use time as a framework to frame the time for the protagonist to experience things, and then decide the ending. This is the general outline I used. Then for each large paragraph, about 100,000 words, a more detailed outline will be drawn up. Make sure that you mainly write about the characters in the stage.
As I write about Fengyue Street, I have written about 500,000 words and the main line outline is about 5,000 words. Determines the protagonist’s character, origin, opening and ending, and the main enemy. Then there are three paragraph outlines, each about 1,500 words.
Believe me, when you write down the story you want to write in a thousands-word outline, it will be of great help to the author. The outline is not good or bad, as long as you can determine the main line of your work. As long as you are willing to write, there will be 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 authors like to write a lot of settings before the plot of the work begins. What is the composition of the country, continental environment, ethnic distribution, warship configuration, etc. However, in the Internet age, how can readers have the patience and obligation to read a lot of boring, unspoken explanatory text. Well, maybe the author is still aggrieved, I wrote that is a setting, they can start from the text? I didn’t have to ask them to watch this?
My answer is, what are you doing? Readers often read books from the beginning, especially new books. They often come in by accident. But when you open the reading area, there are a lot of boring materials. At this time, ten readers, at least five off the page left. No matter how hard you write settings and brainstorm, you shouldn’t post it in your own work. I have been at the starting point for so long, and I have never read any book with a large set of settings from the beginning can become popular.
The setting is best in the plot, with a little bit of disclosure to the reader. On the one hand, it is easier for readers to accept mixed information in the plot, and on the other hand, it can also fill in their own word count.
There is another 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. Two editors cross-examined, and according to the content of the first 30,000 words of the work, they will be divided into four items: worthless, follow-up observation, key follow-up, and contract.
After that, only the editor of the follow-up work will always pay attention to the plot development of the book to see if it has the value of signing. If a book is opened with thirty or forty thousand words, and then the editor reads a lot of setting information, the content is pitiful, and basically it is directly classified as worthless. So at least I want to develop at the starting point and write a lot of settings at the front of the book, which is suicidal behavior.
Starting point recommendation list guide
Recommendation lists that each perform their duties and have their own characteristics are the starting point for a special landscape. For readers, each recommendation list allows them to choose their favorite guides from a collection of thousands of books. For the author, Each recommendation list is the best publicity for your own work. The following briefly introduces the starting point of various manual and automatic ranking principles.
1. Manual list:
The starting point manual list mainly includes cover recommendation, strong recommendation, Sanjiang recommendation, middle column recommendation, album recommendation and page cover recommendation. Among them, the first three are the most prominent in terms of the publicity effect of the works and the reading influence on readers. The following mainly introduces the three recommended principles for listing.
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. It has an unparalleled publicity effect on other lists. Almost all blocked works can easily enter the weekly click list, so the cover recommendation is also required The most stringent. The main principles are as follows:
The works signed by the starting point will be selected and reviewed by the starting point review committee.
Starting point review committee: composed of all editors of the starting point editorial department and the starting point webmaster.
2. Strong recommendation:
Located on the left side of the homepage, the recommendation effect is second only to the cover recommendation, and it is also the most common and main recommendation method at the starting point. Forced push cycle: one week, time to change the list: Sunday. The principles for listing are as follows:
Signed works at the starting point; the number of words in the work is more than 100,000 words; the author has tens of thousands of words in his hand to save the manuscript first, and sensitive works are not recommended. Five of them were jointly selected by the starting point editorial department, and the remaining ten were arranged according to the date of receipt of the agreement.
3. Sanjiang recommendation:
Located on the right side of the homepage, below the cover recommendation. Unlike Feng Tui’s recommendation, Sanjiang recommendation is mainly for new books. The recommendation cycle: one week, and the time of the list change: Sunday. Please refer to the announcement of the Sanjiang Pavilion Forum for details on the principle of listing.
Second, automatic list:
The starting point automatic list has total click list, total recommendation list, total collection list, total word count list, monthly click list, monthly recommendation list, weekly click list, weekly recommendation list, new book list and the recently added Zhibrain recommendation book system . Among these lists are the newcomer potential list and the new book potential list. For new books, being able to have a place on the new book list is a very rare publicity opportunity.
■Questions and answers for new authors from the starting point
Up to now, the original literature website has been developed, and it is no longer the same kind of site that was limited to small groups a few years ago. With the continuous birth of excellent works and the rapid growth of readership, original online literature has been gradually The formation of another literary trend, the successful operation of works and the initial development of the domestic simplified market have added more bargaining chips to this trend of change, and more and more professional or amateur writers have begun to participate. Among them, wanting to break through among the many big and famous giants is also more difficult than a few years ago. Often after hundreds of thousands of words have been devoted, only a few clicks and recommendations are exchanged, and the onlookers feel chilled when they look at it. Could it be said that only lucky people can be favored by readers? The answer is of course no. The main reason for being buried is that new writers do not yet understand the rules of the online literature market. This guide is for all new writers.
I don’t expect all authors who read this guide to be popular, but at least they can avoid some detours. However, before starting this guide, I hope every new writer can do the following multiple-choice question:
The purpose of your writing is:
A: Write a satisfactory work and write it to people you like.
B: Be famous, publish, make money.
For writers who choose A, please read the chapter of struggle, and writers who choose B, please read the chapter of survival. For those who hesitate between AB or want to have both, congratulations, you can just close this page, and point out the works that are both applauded and called, which is beyond my own ability.
Chapter of Struggle
The writer who chooses this path must first have a good mentality and always keep in mind the purpose of his creation, but even so, he will still be shaken by the bleak click recommendation, the desolation of no one cares, and he will be cruel Struggling with hard support is the future that friends who choose this path are most likely to face.
Writing itself is not a smooth road, but to write a satisfactory work, it is more difficult to choose a bumpy path along the road, and it requires great perseverance and courage to persevere. Don’t ask for it if you click on the recommendation. As for the applause, you need to use your own efforts in exchange for it.
Basically, this path can be simply boiled down to the process of communication-absorption-modification-communication.
The so-called communication refers to the communication with the readers of the work. Although new works are not easy to appear, in general, a small number of readers will find that if you are lucky, they may encounter sincerity at the beginning Readers who love works, this is the initial audience group. The only way to find these initial audience groups is to study book reviews. The reason why it is called research is to find the real book reviews under the cover of many panacea. It is a very difficult job, so the first thing that struggling A people need to learn is to identify the panacea. For example, no matter how gorgeous or touching your heart is, it has a common feature, that is, it will never be embodied in any character, background, plot or detail of the work. As long as this principle is mastered, then the ability to discriminate the golden oil has been cultivated to the elementary level, and then you can honed and progress in actual combat. After discovering the real book review, the next step is to actively contact the readers who wrote the book review. Don’t let go of your airs. Before you become a giant, airing is meaningless. Only through communication can you discover more about the deficiencies of your work. Place, and thus enter the next link of absorption.
It’s better to absorb this link than the former. Generally speaking, old readers have more “experience” than new writers. Of course, those who transfer from old readers do not count. Since the development of original literature, all kinds of books have already multiplied over ten thousand books. The so-called reading breaking ten thousand volumes is not impossible on the Internet. If the’reading’ calendar is higher, the vision and brushwork will be improved accordingly. Knowing your own shortcomings, you can also improve your’experience’ in a targeted manner.
After the absorption is completed, it is modified~IndoMTL.com~I have improved my level. I am afraid that the things I wrote before are already riddled with holes in my own eyes. Then don’t hesitate to modify it immediately, although the readers do not I like to read the revised chapters, but if you don’t care about pushing, why should you care about these little things? Perfecting your own article is the key.
After the modification is completed, it depends on the results. Continue to communicate. However, the object of communication can not be limited to the readers. You can also consult other authors you know during the absorption process, etc., and then repeat the same process to continuously improve yourself , As long as the work is good enough, it will always be recognized by others and will have its own fixed audience. As long as I can persevere, I will be able to complete a work that satisfies myself.
It seems simple to say, but it is not easy to do it in practice. The words lonely are probably the vocabulary that little A must understand. However, the author who can complete it has also received a kind of spiritual training, and the completed work definitely has its shining value. One day will be recognized and will shine.
The end of the road of struggle may be hope or nothing. If you don’t have enough courage, endurance and knowledge of yourself, you should not choose this path lightly.
The path of struggle corresponds to ideals. Pursuing ideals in reality is not a romantic and freehand thing, but the person who completes this path, no matter what he gets at the end, is a success.
