259.5 - Give Away 3 Report and Curcol Problem Self Edit

Hello everyone.....

Today is June 7, 2020. So, it has been 1 week since the announcement above. Not much has changed since last week.

The author reminded Give Away Perioder 3 only until June 14, which is only 1 week, Do not miss it.....

But, seeing the enthusiasm of the vote, it looks like the readers on restraint and sympathize with Angel Syahfitri Fitri huh? Well, if that were true, the author would not forbid. That's your right. wkwkwkwk

Then, all a little curcol about the promo.

In the last few weeks, in fact, there have been 2 users who contacted Author for Promo. Unfortunately, however, the author did not pass both. Wh why? Well, to be frank, their script doesn't meet the correct writing standards. The author doesn't say it has to be perfect, nothing is perfect.

For the first, the author is not too enthusiastic because the story base cultivation, you know. For the second, the author was enthusiastic because the story base is not cultivation. In fact, the start is quite promising. How many paragraphs, file.

Conceptually, the two stories are indeed fantasy, being on the hit target author. However, there are other things that make the author choose not to promote it.

So, here's the thing. These two authors (as well as many other budding authors), are too focused on writing. Just "focus", okay. But I wrote the word "too focused". Something that has never been good. This makes them forget the one thing that makes people comfortable reading, editing.

For those who follow IG author, you may have read a post about self-editing or self-editing. Simply put, when you're done writing, don't publish immediately. There is a process called self-edit or self-swasunting. Wh why? If this process is not passed, it can almost be guaranteed a messy sentence order. Your script is still at the raw draft level.

Self-edit is a crucial phase or process. All authors, when just finished writing, must feel "wow, this best writing" or "mantep dah". Huh! Think again! Try leaving the script for a week or so. Longer is better. In that time, you do not hold the manuscript. Either create a new script while reading another novel that has been printed.

The print novel has gone through the editing process. If you often read this novel, you will be familiar with the proper rules and regulations of writing, making the reader comfortable. After that, you read the finished script. At that time, you'll probably think "****, my script is really bad" or "a really messy bushel" or "i made this script?".

Author, I, too, went through this phase. In the past, I also thought "important concepts and good stories, right?" However, after many years of reading books and studying, I realized just good concepts and stories. Writing (execution) is also very important. Without proper execution, concepts and stories will be useless.

The author even got a perjury and insult because of messy writing. If the reason for the swearing and insults is unclear, the author cares about the devil. But if all the swearing and insults are accompanied by explanations and location designation of the writing error? Womens *****. There, I got angry and insulted myself. I am ashamed to have even published this post. In fact, because of this, I immediately changed my pen name, starting over.

But, I'm sure there will be some quibbling like this.

"But I'm the author, the author. Editing is the editor's job, not mine."

The work of the editor is right to do the editing of the script. However, the editor will not accept editing scripts whose writing is messy. Think of it this way. Newly completed manuscripts (drafts), generally have a value of less than 40. After self-edit, it can increase between 10 - 30. The maximum value can be 70. Well, the editor, will only accept work whose script has a minimum value of 60. The editor's job is to increase the value from 60 to as high as possible.

Just by doing your own edit or swasunting, you can save more than 50 percent money.

When you send your manuscript to the author to read and give directions why your manuscript does not pass, indirectly, the author has become a beta reader for you. Did you know that the beta reader also has a rate? Actually this rate is cheap, only 10 rupiah per word. However, if you send 3 chapters with a total of 6000 words, normally, you have to pay 60 rupiah to make the author read it.

However, no! The author does not ask you to pay! Author gives you free beta reader services.

Why am I suddenly mentioning the beta reader? Because one of the authors who asked for his story to be promoted asked for directions for his story better. However, after being given directions for improvement, there were no changes in the script, neither the old nor the new. So what do you keep asking for orders? Then, I accept my decision if you do not promote your script. Do not ask for directions and advice on repairs.

For the other, he had already stopped writing for a while. I wonder if he did a self-edit or just took a break or even stopped completely being a writer. Well, I wish he did a self edit anyway. Well, it's just hope. If it turns out his fate is the same as other authors, yes already. How else.

Maybe you are wondering why the author is a bit active about this promo. Initially, the author simply ignored the promo comments. Unfortunately, however, that cannot be allowed. Wh why? Here's explanation.

As an author, of course, the author is also incorporated in several forums and author circles. And, there is one of the author's acquaintances who is also a beta reader and co-author of a discussion about me who just kept quiet with promo comments.

Silence can be categorized as not caring. However, it turns out, lately silence can also be considered as another thing, do not mind. If I let the promo comment there, it's the same I don't mind the promo person.

And, if I do not mind the promo comment, indirectly, I also recommend the article in the promo dong. When there are other authors who see the promo comment, there is a possibility that they will read it.

If it turns out the writing is not neat, messy, and has a low publish value, the author will blame me as the owner of the stall for letting them promo. Using the analogy of the events in I am No King, it would be the same as letting another royal family be killed in my territory. Whatever happens in my territory is my responsibility. Well, that's.

What happens if you leave it on for longer? The reputation that I have built a long time ago will be ruined by the people that I just let go of. And I don't want my reputation destroyed. That's why the author must reply promo comments with "F**K OFF". At least this can show to other authors if I do not support or let this promo comment just mill around.

Then, again, the author lists the procedures regarding promos in I am No King.

For the record, it may be a bit ironic, but this announcement is not going through a self-edit process. Only the script and the story chapter go through a self-edit process. Why not self edit? Because this macem announcement only wants curcol, nothing more.

And, again, do not forget the author to give a big thank you to the readers who have read I am No King. Keep looking forward to the story:D
