Hogwarts: Becoming a god from reselling fresh food

Summary of Volume 6 \u0026 Taking a day off as usual

It was very difficult for me to write this volume.

On the one hand, the book begins to wind up in the middle and late stages, and it becomes less free.

On the one hand, this volume leaves me too little time to think. There is an outline, but the specific plot details are added while writing. It is very inefficient to write while thinking about the plot. I finish it almost in the early morning every day. After writing, I feel dizzy and have no time to write it carefully. Think about the plot.

Of course, there is another reason. I have to admit that I am a bit tired when I write...probably because I have no longevity. I can maintain high morale and passion within three months, but any longer, the enthusiasm will fade away. , coupled with the fact that the data is not increasing much, the chicken blood supply is insufficient, and the heart energy begins to drop.

I am very tired every day, and I even feel that the things I write are not quite up to expectations. Compared with the previous volumes, the level is lower, and my mood will be low.

Under the cycle of two phases, the writing state of this volume can be imagined.

Once or twice I even thought about posting the synopsis of the plot below and taking a break for a couple of months.

But I know that this is the normal state of the bottleneck period. This is "a person who travels a hundred miles is only half a mile". If you want to accomplish most difficult things, you will go through such a stage. After passing it, you will enter a new realm and come to a new world. If you can't pass the world, you need to accumulate and sprint again.

I have failed many times and this time I want to keep trying.

Do you know how I managed to keep writing when it was the most difficult time for me to write?

It’s not “the reader is waiting, the food must be served”, nor is it a dream of becoming a god, it’s actually a matter of lowering my expectations.

"You are just an ordinary little guy, don't keep thinking about the whole life of a master."

"Writing a book is just a living thing, don't think so sacredly."

"Just water it down, it's the best you can do."

Recognize your own abilities, don't have too high expectations of yourself, and then finish the work and write what needs to be written before you finish it. Even if you draw a tiger into a dog, you will still be able to draw it.

I said in the book that "the pursuit of perfection is an obsession that needs to be overcome." I actually feel this sentence deeply and I deeply believe it.

Completion is more important than perfection. Only by abandoning the obsession to do something 100% at one time can you continue to do it.

Okay, enough of the reasons.

Next, summarize the time.

Structurally, this volume basically has a small plot every ten chapters or so, and the overall plot is promoting the development of the big plot. There are no additional subplots, so it is fairly compact.

However, this way of advancement is different from the previous volumes. The overall coordination is insufficient, and there are even cases where foreshadowing was written and forgotten.

At the same time, the beginning and end of each small plot are relatively direct and lack ups and downs. This is because the details do not have time to do well. Sometimes the accumulation of emotions is not in place, and sometimes there is a lack of explosive points. Therefore, this roll is not as smooth as the previous rolls. Sometimes it is a bit dry, and sometimes it may make everyone feel watery.

If you don’t have enough experience and haven’t internalized the rhythm of the story into instinct, you don’t have enough time, and you don’t have the energy to polish it carefully, it will look rough.

However, I probably still have some ideas, and I may improve in the future.

In terms of characters, Dumbledore becomes a villain in this volume. He is very sad in this volume. The reason is also explained in the book. The death of Sirius and the death of Dumbledore were actually written in the initial outline of this volume. Both characters died in the original work, and their deaths are actually related to their own positioning. . Sirius's character has a recklessness that takes risks and ignores death, while Dumbledore lives in a state of "selflessness". In fact, to a certain extent, they are tragic characters, and the ending of death is doomed. of.

However, Sirius's death will be used to promote Harry's darkening. His darkening will still be useful later, so Sirius has to die. But in the end I didn't want to let Dumbledore go.

Then at the end of the fifth volume, I thought about trying to write some emotional scenes, so I had a little interaction with the Queen. I was quite restrained and basically stayed within the scope of the plot-even making the Queen look like a tool. people. But it shouldn't be annoying.

The next plot will be very "big" and involve a larger dimension of space and time. In fact, I am not too sure, after all, I have no such experience, but I will try my best.

Finally, thank you to my friends who have been supporting me, and thank you for reading.

Oh, I almost forgot, take a day off.

I have an outline for the next volume, but I haven’t thought about the plot in detail yet. Please ask the god of drama to enlighten me and give me some good ideas. Namo Amitabha, Amen.

Love you guys, see you the day after tomorrow, okay?
