บท 130: Idea, Title, Title Page, Number of Chapters
I have an idea.
Culinary - Gourmet - Gliding in time- Back to the past - magic-folk medicine - healing culinary- cooking history- a bit of the Silk Road-Commerce-Treasure hunters-Medicine-Alchemy-Gold !!
But there is an idea now. She is fascinating. As you write, about 40 chapters, the idea evaporates, only self-testing remains the motivation, you can keep up the pace that you set yourself. For example, two chapters a day of 1200 words or not. The second motivator is the number of views and collections. If the story is good enough in terms of interest and poor English grammar, then people are interested in the novel.
Then again the idea wakes up in chapter 70 and the novel calmly ends in chapter 90 or 120. To write more, in 300 chapters or maybe 3,000 chapters, this must be known. These are ideas for writing a story that should be oh-ho-ho what!
Title.
As you call a short story, good luck will or will not go to it. The name should be short, capacious, to attract the attention of the reader! So that it immediately hooked!
Usually, the name is super cool, but the content does not live up to expectations.
For example, I started reading an interesting story about agriculture, in the end, I dropped the novel in chapter 34, although there were about 570 chapters. Why? because the name was very attractive, and the text block was not about agriculture at all, but about romance and cultivation. This is not what I, as a reader, expected.
No need to disappoint the reader! He will not forgive!
The name is optimal for three words!
Only now I can't think of it so that the name itself would not be a spoiler of history. And just calling it "Gourmet Cooking" is somehow too simple. Well, I don't know if it will be intermediate or rather "Working title, the draft". Somehow I won't be able to write a title without writing a novel.
Title sheet.
It's possible to print designers in printing, a title page will cost 30-50 dollars. But is it worth it? Probably not ?! Since I write novels and prose, as a hobby, I don't get paid for it. The level of my writing is not a pro or even an advanced amateur. There are very few chapters, but there are dry ones like sea stone rusk from the 19th century. This is not justifiable risk.
You can ask someone on the forum to draw a cover page for free, but not the fact that a person will have time. And it's even more interesting for me to draw the title page drawings on a vector graphic. They turn out not typical, not stamping, original, though not to the cliché, and therefore do not catch many readers. But from the point of view of creativity, for me personally, I like such title pages more.
While I drew the title page, in the vector editor, it is old, only 256 colors. The drawing was mediocre, the creation time took 1.5 hours.
Maybe I will do the processing on the raster? 1
Number of chapters
From 60 to 120. The number of words in chapters is from 990 to 1400 words.
Update on 2 chapters per week. but for this, you need to write at least chapters 20 and then slowly publish them and meanwhile try to write new chapters.
The goal for 2020 (February 2021 is a full year).
Write in a year - 300,000 words.
Achieve New Collections - 150
Number of views - 500,000
Let's see how it works in practice.
With the number of words, it all depends on the author and his laziness.
With the number of collections and the number of views, the topic "How to get 1 million views in a couple of months" depends on the veracity of the algorithm voiced in the forum.
So far, somehow. While he drew the title page for a new novel and wrote 3 chapters.
