Although my childhood, accompanied by books, may be a bit boring, but it may also be a habit accumulated since then. It has become a habitual reading, so there is no need to rush it. This is a hobby and a natural thing.
After I started studying Chinese systematically, my mother asked me to keep a diary every day, but I had to do so because I was afraid. Therefore, my composition at school is often regarded as a model essay. However, no one suggested to me what I should write at that time. Later, I learned stories from literary magazines and wrote them in a mess, but I never finished writing the manuscript. As a young man, I still have fun, and my mother didn't realize whether I should be instructed to write a book. This may also be a little regret when I was young, but my mother taught me to read and record, and I was very lucky.
When I was in high school, my other hobby was painting. Speaking of which, it should be hereditary. My father's brother, that is, my uncle, was a famous painter when he was young. Unfortunately, he died unexpectedly in his twenties. Sometimes I think that if he were here, he would definitely encourage me to draw. But I can only think about it.
As I said before, mothers are authoritarian in education. When I was a child, I always liked to doodle with a brush. My mother always stops when she sees it. She thinks I'm not doing my job well. My art works are often taken to the podium by teachers to praise the whole class. I told my mother that I wanted to sign up for an art interest class. My mother said that if I study, I should study hard and draw whatever I want, so I signed up for a bunch of composition classes, Olympics classes and computer classes ... but I can't learn art well.
Grandma said, let your child learn art, and she likes it. Mom said that this can't be eaten as a meal. At that time, parents always thought it was right to study only culture.
When I was a junior high school student, I finally fought for my hobby and dreamed of entering an art high school. This is my mother's dream for many years. Maybe everyone is not very clear about art high school. Our study is a combination of art and culture, and we participated in the general college entrance examination, but the final settlement score is art+culture. If you go to art high school, it means that the university basically enters the same major and will not change.
Three years of study is happy, and our studies are equally heavy, but we still have to spend half of our time sketching and gouache. We are much happier than ordinary high schools that only study books. However, if you want to get into a good university, you can't slack off in culture and art.
Finally, I hope to enter a university and choose visual media as my major. When I first entered the school, I still continued my basic skills, sketching and gouache. I began to learn all kinds of design software and design thinking in the first half of my freshman year. Finally, when I subdivided my major, I focused on graphic design.
So I became a graphic designer after I set foot on the society, and it was also smooth sailing. Since then, when dealing with software, I seldom pick up a brush to draw by hand.
During the period, I didn't stop writing, just painting and changing, sometimes not, and hand-drawing was slowly abandoned after it was changed into design.
By chance, I found the starting point and realized that what I had written could be published, so I started to pick up the pen again. It was definitely a little crazy in those days. As I said before, although I write from time to time, I know nothing about ways and means. So, when I always write, something goes wrong. After touching the starting point, even if there is a problem, you should bite the bullet and write it down. Because it is difficult to find a place to stay, there is no reason not to cherish it.
Finally, I rushed out of the encirclement with a supernatural novel and was invited by the editor to sign the contract at 3W, which was very excellent at that time. Although the writing at that meeting was really green, the reason why this novel was signed has a lot to do with my choice of unpopular theme. When I was in the closed loop, I received a contract with a thick starting point. When I first came into contact with such a thick contract, I was surprised and uneasy. In fact, I didn't understand what it would be like to sign this contract. In my opinion, the copyright of the article belongs to the starting point, but if there is an adaptation of a book or a film and television drama, the copyright still belongs to the author. I probably remember this. Anyway, I am confused, but it is definitely a good thing to make it clear, so I signed it excitedly, and then carefully put the document back and sent it back to the starting headquarters.
After signing the contract, the article has a good exposure, but it has not been on the front page, and it has been pushed to a prominent position in the paranormal plate. It is also a great encouragement.
But after signing the contract, there will be some daily requirements. If satisfied, you can go to the next higher level and receive the monthly salary from the starting point. Remember, the minimum is 2000 words a day, and you can't leave for a day.
For me, a beginner in writing, there is no saved manuscript at all, and it is still very hard to read 2000 words a day. After all, it is a complete big story, and I have racked my brains to think about the follow-up plot every time, but I can't break away from the last article. After persisting for a while, I found it more difficult to do it. Even the article began to digress slowly, writing all the supernatural stories that happened and heard around me, and finishing everything that can be thought of later.
Finally, the tense string broke, from the initial excitement to the constant encouragement from the starting point, and then to the limited ability, it was really impossible to persist. When it was more than 654.38+ 10,000 words, the book was even worse.
Although this is a regrettable story, it is precisely because of the experience during that time that I laid the foundation for my later scribbling.
Although, at that time, I didn't think that words could measure everything, maybe this is a rule that can't be helped. However, if the number of words is the standard, many writers will learn to spell words. Obviously, one thing can be solved in a few words, but writing a long paragraph will lead to a lot of nonsense. Therefore, many serial articles are very long, because only by continuously outputting the number can we get the platform's manuscript fees and rewards. This is similar to Japanese comics. There are advantages and disadvantages, but it doesn't seem to suit me. My daily pressure comes from how many words I need, so that I can't devote myself to creation. However, the big reason is that I don't even have a manuscript.
Finally, I slowly faded out of the starting circle. I don't know, people I once knew have already given birth to several great gods. However, I am still grateful for those years.
Finally, in writing, I entered an intermittent state again. Perhaps, during the period when the starting point was crazy, I was too tired and depressed to experience that kind of high tension again, so I wrote it myself, but I never published it. Because, I will still itch to write, and after leaving the starting point, I finished my new novel intermittently. Although the number of words is not too much and the time spent is long enough, I still wrote carefully. At least, I think I must be undisturbed and try to be worthy of myself. Although, at that time, the predecessors with the same starting point learned a lot of routines, such as how to add words and so on. None of this is used in my new novel. I have always insisted that the principle of writing should first touch myself.
I was lucky enough to get in touch with it this time, which ignited my enthusiasm for writing. There are so many things I want to write that I can only do it step by step. Now I use my spare time in the company to draw some pictures every day, slowly practice my hand-drawing ability and learn many new painting skills. I am also very grateful to my boss for his tolerance. As long as it doesn't affect my work, he won't interfere with my doing some small exercises. This is very important to me.
I read Chinese and English when I come back from work. Reading is a passion, and English is the same as hand-drawing. I want to gradually consolidate my ability to degenerate.
When I got home, I had a delicious meal and rushed to the computer to write an article. Every day, some good titles and contents will be recorded in private letter articles, and there will be a general inspiration at the beginning.
Life is full and tired, but full of beauty and satisfaction.
I also want to sort out the complete story of the starting point signed article. Although the later digression became a fantasy, now that I think about it, the plot is particularly wonderful. The idea of rewriting this article has always existed and will be implemented gradually. Although I am not a mature writer, I will work hard and do every step in a down-to-earth manner. After all, there is no shortcut to anything.
Come on, for a better tomorrow and a more lovely self. * * * With everyone!
PS: I would have sent some paintings, but I have obsessive-compulsive disorder. I feel that paintings and articles will make the platform messy, so I will not post it. In the future, I will put part of the painting as an illustration or "egg" in the article, which can be regarded as my own words and my own painting. People who like my paintings can also pay attention to it.
