The works are characterized by strong literariness, beautiful and concise language, rigorous structure, and full of emotions, thoughts and feelings of home and country.
To become a traditional pure literature writer, it takes at least ten years of accumulation and polishing of reading and writing.
Many post-60s writers have very high literary attainments, and their works are of great thickness and height, but they have little influence and even low economic income. The reason is that most well-informed writers were born in an era without Internet. Many people dabble in information from newspapers, magazines and books when they are young, so most of their skills are written in manuscript paper. Later, they learned to use word, but they still couldn't change their mind, reading, reading, reading.
Therefore, in this era when most readers stay on the Internet, some writers can't change their ideas. They even think that online literature and self-media literature are fast food, and try to draw a clear line with this medium, which leads some pure literature writers to finally write good works, but they don't let literary works enjoy the recognition and reading of most people.
On the contrary, best-selling writers such as Da Bing, Li Shanglong and Li Xiaoyi. Earned their contribution and gained influence and popularity in this era.
But their works can't compare with pure literature.
In fact, the reason lies in the rapid development of this era, the wide information channels, people's agitation, and most people's literary literacy is very shallow. In the face of pure literature, they will not recognize the deep meaning for a while, nor can they get what they want to read from the literal meaning.
Another person said that people's literary aesthetics and appreciation of literary works are declining, which has a lot to do with the development of the times. The times require the author's works to keep pace with the times and always promote positive energy, communication, encouragement and warmth, so newspapers and publications are making inspirational books. Obviously, writers who became famous in the last era are still hot. Some senior writers can sell a calligraphy for100,000, some can sell 80,000 for lectures, and some are not cheap. Pure literature writers who have not accumulated a certain number of readers mostly rely on the annual subsidies of provincial writers' associations or government support projects to publish their works.
Some people say that culture has no market. In fact, I think this is an obvious feature of the fault between the two eras. At this moment, writers who can learn to promote their pure literary works through the media still have their own circles, but they are always unwilling to change their ideas, unwilling to learn the writing methods of the media, and those who draw a clear line with the media are a little embarrassed in the dissemination of their works.
The second is the best-selling author.
Just now, I quoted some influential writers of this era, and their annual contribution fee is at least between 200 thousand and 500 thousand. Of course, there are more, not to mention for the time being.
Most of the best-selling writers are mainly inspirational essays and youth novels, and the themes of their works meet the reading needs of the current crowd. At the same time, Han Han, Jing M.Guo, Liu Tong, Rao Xueman and others have also put their works on the screen.
There is also a kind of full-time online writing, and all the manuscript fees come from online writers who subscribe to websites. Most people's understanding of online writers is that their works are large in scale and poor in writing. In fact, this is because the writing threshold of the website is low, and people who can and can't write are all fishing in troubled waters, which leads to all kinds of writers in online works being labeled as online writers.
What I want to say is that when I was studying in Lu Xun College of Literature, most of my classmates were online writers. They are the best authors selected by 30,000 writers of a website. Their writing is fresh and refined, the subject matter is refreshing, the language is rich and wonderful, and they are not as vulgar and shoddy as everyone thinks. Besides, they are really excellent online writers. They earn more than one million yuan in royalties each year, as well as the after-tax income of the website. Everyone is familiar with Tang Jiasan Shao.
Positioning is very important when one decides to start writing. If you choose to be a pure literary writer, you will know that language, structure and thought are very important. Most importantly, you need to keep reading classic literature to nourish yourself.
When you decide to become a best-selling author, you must know what types and themes of works are most needed in the market and the reading habits of current reading groups.
For example, a classic literary work like Ordinary World is a literary work with historical value, with heavy language and rich emotion, which is integrated into the epitome of an era.
Struggle and Ode to Joy are still about people's lives in this era, but in terms of language thickness, they can't be compared with classic works. Some people in contemporary novels consider adapting film and television dramas, so they attach great importance to the drama of the plot, so they make it into TV and attract people's attention. But as literary works, language and language realm are not particularly impressive.
Online novels are all about innovation to a great extent, and the author should pave the way at the end of each chapter, so that readers have the impulse to keep paying for reading, so the language is relaxed and humorous, and the stories are novel and changeable.
What kind of writer you want to be, you must first understand different types of works.
