The secrets of a successful web novel
Since the web novel authors got more respect and profits from netizens, some writers are jumping into the big pool of web-novel writing because of the low requirements to access the web-novel writing club and high profits. However, without the research of popular web fiction, not knowing what type of online fiction e-readers love, these works written by new web-novel authors will bury under the tons of Internet message.
Here, I will share with you some secrets of a successful web novel for the help to start your writing web novel.
Nature
Although it seems vulgar, and even an insult to the dignity of literature, but it is undeniable that it is not easy to make readers pay for a fantasy story. There are two key elements to hook up readers’ interests, one of which is to make your readers want to know the following plot after they read the beginning of your story, another is to keep your readers interested. There are the following tips:
1. Within a thousand words, the plot must be unfolded.
2. In the first chapter, you must find out which specific point the reader is excited about.
In conclusion, the secret to the success of web novels is to find as many “points” as possible and keep them excited.
Personality
There are two kinds of writers. One with a passionate, impulsive personality, either don’t write at all or writes so crazy as the only thing in their lives is writing. The other one with a rational personality, write thousands of words every day, no matter what happened, and they have the stead writing style. For those who write web novels, they must update their novels steadily to maintain readers’ love.
Also, the storage of manuscripts is very important. It’s not just about the update, it’s about being relaxed and having enough time to think about where your story is going so that under the updated pressure, you could not make the wrong decision in plot design.
Characters
First, the character’s features should not be the same. After experiencing all kinds of things, one’s perspective will change and the way to deal with things will also change.
Second, the characterization of the character is a label. Everyone has his or her label, the way they do things, the way they talk, all have their characteristics.
Third, there are many ways to depict characters, so you have to choose the most suitable one.
Plot
One of the standards of a good writer is how to deal with the relationship between complexity and simplicity. Some plots need to write more, and some plots should be as simple as possible. But please remember, every word of your story are you telling the readers: “Listen, this is the story I write.”
Stick to Writing
For a web novel writer, you have to cultivate a habit of writing every day. The web novel authors I knew, all updated regularly and write every day. Believe me, the insistence will make all differences.
So there you have it. This list isn’t exclusive and certainly won’t be every writer’s path to success. But this is what has worked for me. This is the path I’ve taken so far on my writing journey.
