Chapter 1002: A little notice that I finally understood

Views:

Yesterday, it was said that we would take the next day off on the 7th, which is tomorrow.

There will be no update tomorrow. I am afraid that some friends may not know, so I would like to inform you here.

By the way, I remembered that someone showed me a few passages today, written by an author, and then I finally understood why I have a glassy heart, and I looked so good at writing.

I sent it to everyone to read, that is to say, I have a glass heart. I felt that it was so clear that I burst into tears, so I explained why I had a glass heart when I wrote the book.

Why every author has a glass heart.

I often see many people say: "I have written so many books and I am a master. I am not so glass-hearted. I should not take it lightly." and so on.

Every time I see this kind of comment, I can't help but laugh.

In fact, every author has a glass heart, no matter how great he is, he is no exception.

Why is every author so glass-hearted? Of course, it’s not that the authors are pretentious or sensitive, but it’s determined by the nature of the author’s profession itself.

What is creation

I remember reading a book that analyzed the creative process from a psychological perspective.

"When writing, you must minimize all your vigilance and self-defense mechanisms or even shut them down completely, let yourself go completely, and expose yourself to the outside world, so that you can be completely immersed in writing."

If an author, especially an author of fictional literature, wants to bring himself into every character, every story, and every world he writes, he must forget all the common sense, reflexes, and instincts that he has been familiar with before. To do this, you must first lower your vigilance and self-defense mechanisms.

People's vigilance and self-defense mechanisms are all operating automatically. First of all, letting go of all these is something that goes against the laws of nature. This requires extremely high intelligence and self-control. It is the evolution of the human brain. What can only be achieved after reaching a certain level requires a huge amount of energy and is very unstable, so the state is difficult to find. —Chimpanzees may draw, but have you ever seen a chimpanzee write a novel

In order to allow themselves to enter this state at any time, authors usually pay the price of "low vigilance" and "low awareness of self-defense". This kind of price may not be shown on weekdays, but every author , they must all have similar feelings.

For example, I try to keep myself as calm as possible and look at everything, including myself, from the perspective of a bystander. Therefore, I lack too much mood swings or passion, so I have a good temper.

Authors of fictional literature are one of the groups most likely to suffer from mental illness in the world. I remember they were ranked second, and the first was the poet - or maybe the third, followed by the abstract painter, Van Gogh. One person drove this ratio up.

Why? It is also caused by the most basic principles of creation.

The author is always insecure.

Therefore, many authors will say that they cannot write anything until it is quiet at night, because they do not feel safe enough until it is quiet at night, and without enough security, their vigilance and self-defense mechanisms will refuse to let go. Come down, this thing is not a power supply, just turn on the switch. It is nakedly fighting its own instincts and its own ego.

It's like throwing you from a quiet and peaceful environment to a battlefield, and you will instinctively resist.

And often put down the vigilance and self-defense mechanism, but demand more security - in short, in short, every author is very insecure.

Here, I would like to remind everyone very seriously that if there is a person who is concentrating on writing a novel, you must not scare him from behind at this time, otherwise he will be frightened to death, or he will stab you to death with a knife. Think about it when you are playing LoL and someone suddenly disconnects you. How can you bear it? Believe me, when you're writing a book, these interruptions are a hundred times more annoying.

Uncle Ha still remembers that one time someone called in the middle of the night and insisted that I took his mobile phone. He was writing high at the time, which made me half dead. Then from that day on, I harassed him in the middle of the night every day, asking him to apologize to me. , I even threatened to call the police, but in the end he always turned off the phone.

Therefore, it is not surprising that the author does anything when angry, because they are extremely insecure.
