musicians of old

Chapter 75
Happy Children's Day.

It was quite bald when it was put on the shelves on June [-]st.

Opened the book on 4.25, tested the water and pushed it for five rounds on 5.1, and now the web page is on the sixth frequency, and the app has no text for the time being. When this line of words is coded, the collection is 9900, which may happen to be received after 0:[-].

The number of words updated in May is 16+, accumulatively 20.

Well, as a handicapped party, obviously I can't knock out this average daily amount at all, it's all because I wrote a lot of manuscripts in April.

By the end of May, the manuscript deposits were done, so it became a cash deposit at night.

So what's more embarrassing is that the free date of 5k has never been broken, and the full attendance requirement of 4k after it is put on the shelves may be sent someday. (Dangerous)

Usually, I seldom talk about creation issues in various places, because I feel that as an author, it is enough to write my own article well. Today is a rare opportunity, and I suddenly want to talk about this book.

In fact, I don’t even believe it myself. The first unpublished 1.5w word of this book starts with an urban text.

Well, you read that right, modern city, easy writing, the kind where there are many cute girls driving together.

It has nothing to do with Western Fantasy, steampunk, Cthulhu, or half a dime.

The initial idea, or motivation, was just to write a professional essay on classical music.

According to this idea, I plan to contribute to urban or light novel themes, and add some elements such as rebirth, system, entertainment, love, business warfare, or urban abilities.

As a professional essay with music running through the main line, most of them are this choice.

As a special case, before I wrote the book, I only knew about "Arcane Throne" during the Novice Village period and "Emperor Qin" I read in ancient times. Later, after a book friend mentioned it, I knew about "The Silent Crown".

Either Platinum or Master, the newcomer should write about urban entertainment honestly, and let’s drive a car by the way, so there is the initial 1.5w word waste manuscript that has not yet been submitted.

Why did you change your mind later?

One is that I think the best painting style of classical music stories must be told in a European background similar to the 18th-19th centuries.

Second, if we want to build a power system, the most closely related to art and the most valuable to develop, in addition to humanistic factors, should be religion or mysticism.

How about fantasy?

When this idea popped into my mind one day, and it got stronger and stronger, I knew I might take the pill.

Started fluttering from the idea stage.

Although I am new to Meng, I also know that urban not only has a larger total traffic volume, but also in terms of statistical ratio, urban entertainment readers have a higher tolerance for copy elements. (Well, in fact, the relevant setting of this book is just an appearance or a big foreshadowing, but in the early stage, it did appear as a copy element, so I won’t spoil it here.)
And if I choose this way, it means that as a music professional article, urban entertainment readers with the most accurate market audience may not have the opportunity to read it at all.

And readers who like Western Fantasy, Epic, Sword and Sorcery, or Tentacle Slime, go in from the fantasy recommendation site, and see the protagonist who plays the piano and becomes a conductor, emmm what the hell? ...was partly dismissed again.

But I was just being stubborn.

Since you are writing classical music, you must write it in the golden age when there is a strong humanistic atmosphere, there are endless masters, music theory is flourishing, and gentlemen and ladies sit and talk about music!No other background, in my mind, can surpass it!
And if the category of mysticism is abandoned, then in the later stages of the novel, when discussing art in depth, you can only emptyly list "tears", "burning", "so sublime", "music is so sacred", "art is so great" "" "The brilliance of divinity" "The master is immortal" and other keywords, it's boring!
Just jump on it, if there is no one, let there be no one, the man of science and technology is such a tough guy!
Only such a journey can carry the dream of classical music in my heart.

So all the previous outlines were thrown away and rewritten.

Under such a change, I began to make up for the steampunk worldview, the life and background of the Victorian era, to collect information on mysticism, and to learn from mysteries, occultism, Cthulhu, Gnostics, etc. The world view and writing style have rewritten the outline of 10W words, while the previous urban outline was only 1W words.

It is in such an order. I have never been exposed to these latter worldview elements before, and I learned from scratch.

On the contrary, it is music. I didn't add any extra knowledge. Many things have already been ingrained in me.

I also thank Canaan, the second editorial team, for being willing to accept such a fusion monster. When discussing the title and introduction of the book, Da Da said that he touched his blind spot of knowledge. (So ​​what the hell did I write?)
Although the final idea at the time was very strong, after the book was issued and signed, the mentality was still very complicated.

The two mentalities are intertwined back and forth: for a while, I feel that I can let myself go, and just focus on finishing the book. Anyway, I don’t rely on this to make a living, and readers are just floating clouds!After a while, I was thinking again, will it be particularly bad and strange, will no one watch it, what should I do if the data is stretched!Is there anyone here to save this poor timid orange!
Can it be regarded as the traditional performing arts of new writers?

But I also tried to deeply analyze my own heart:

There is no doubt about the world and stories in the dream. During the writing period, the update may be affected by the state from time to time, but the desire to complete the book is the driving force deep in my heart.

But as a materialist, I know that subjective initiative cannot be emphasized one-sidedly.An author needs external incentives, readers who support him, and data and achievements to prove that what he writes is more or less valuable. Only by looking directly at his own desires and respecting the laws of human nature can he walk comfortably go down.

So ask for a ticket! ! ! (Groundhog.gif)

Back to the topic.

The estimated number of words in the first volume is 30W. The current pace is generally within the scope of my control, and the progress is close to 2/3. In the end, the number of words may exceed 0-10%.Some discussions about the plot will be put in the summary after the first volume is finished.

In terms of updates, starting tomorrow, I will continue to write two chapters a day, but I will not relax the writing requirements for perfect attendance. Even more subsidy standards are not as important as the perfectionism in my heart.

(It means that there is a lot of water in the water today! In addition to sorting out the plot of the VIP volume, I am a little cautious in writing, so I will update it for the time being! Be confident...)
The outline of this book has a total of nine volumes. The main line is the two sides of "artist" and "knowledge". The determination, I know that the mistake of 1k words in the early stage may not be able to make up for the 10w words in the later stage.

At the very end, I still feel a little nervous, um.

I wish all the knowledgeable colleagues to climb all the way and see the glory.
