How to write a book and contribute to Tencent Weibo?

1. Apply for the author before going to the website, and then enter the author background.

You can create, you can go to the menu list on the left of the author's background to operate and create. Of course, you'd better prepare a 3000-word manuscript when applying for the author, so that 17k will give you a reply one day after the application. 2. Submission to the editor by email should be the method adopted by everyone. How to get the editor to accept your article? Is it okay to submit an email? How to communicate with the editor? What should a writer pay attention to when submitting a manuscript? Some of these questions have been asked by my friends. Today, according to my experience as a writer and my feelings as an editor now, I sorted out what I should pay attention to. I'm talking about the place I want to go. If there are any shortcomings, please fill them in. I'm sure the author should pay a little attention in the process of submitting the manuscript. If you don't understand, please ask questions in the thread.

First of all, this note only represents my personal views, and each editor treats the manuscript differently. Communication with your own editor is the most important thing to pay attention to.

1. What format should I use to submit my email?

Subject: contribution column, article name, published pen name.

Content: The whole content of the article.

Signature: Your real contact address, postal code, name, e-mail, fixed telephone, mobile phone, QQ number (indicate QQ name) and other contact information you think necessary.

Nothing is welcome except the above.

Second, why not welcome the use of attachments?

As we all know, many viruses are spread through email attachments. As far as I know, many magazines have installed virus shredder software on their computers, which means that all systems with attachments will be deleted when processing emails. This means that the words you have worked so hard to write will never be seen by the editor.

In addition, the format of the attachment is different, and it can't be opened because of software problems, or it is garbled when opened.

Therefore, for your own benefit, don't use attachments to contribute.

3. Do you know what column your text is suitable for before submitting?

Every magazine is made up of countless columns. Before you contribute, you must determine which column your article is suitable for. This is listed in the subject of the email, and the editor has a stronger purpose when reading the manuscript. In addition, doing so also represents your familiarity with magazines. Editing and sorting articles is also very convenient. Editors are lazy and like authors who save trouble and worry.

Four, how many articles a month is more appropriate?

Personally, I don't think there should be more than three articles. Once, an author sent me more than twenty articles at once. On the bright side, this is because the author trusts you, and his articles are all for you to choose; However, from another perspective, if there are so many unpublished articles, does it mean that they have been screened by other editors? What should I do with articles that other editors don't want?

5. What is the concept of time limit?

There are two deadlines: one is the monthly submission time of magazines; The second is the deadline for temporary collection. For the first time, personally, I don't think it is necessary for the screenwriter to care too much. Because the magazine is long-term, you can't catch up with this issue. Just put it in the next issue. The second time, that is to say, you can write as required before the deadline, but once the time has passed, there is no need to write and submit again. Because as soon as time passes, it will be finalized, and even if you write it well, you won't need it. Personal experience is sooner rather than later, because when drafting temporarily, we often get the right good draft before the time is up and finalize it in advance.

6. What does the word count requirement mean?

Simply put, don't ask for more if you can. Write as many words as you want, and you can't write hundreds of thousands of words for editors to delete. After all, you lack words. As long as the article is good, I can arrange something else in the space. But you talk too much. Although your article is good-looking, in case I am too lazy to delete it, where can I put the extra words in the magazine?

Seven, why can't there be typos?

An author asked me online, I just sent you a letter with thousands of words. How can you finish reading it in one minute and say no? What's your work attitude? My answer is simple: I returned your article without reading it. The answer is that you should pay attention to the title of your article. Actually, the answer is simple. There is a typo in his title. Individual typos in the article can be forgiven, but what do you think of the author with all the wrong titles? Don't have too many typos in the article. Too many, the editor will spoil his appetite and don't want to read your article any more. Therefore, please read the article at least three times before it is published. There is no need to assess the editor's ability to correct mistakes. Please pay attention to the difference between "image" and "image", "gain" and "gain". The use of punctuation is also a problem.

8. Does the editor have the obligation to reply to the author?

I should reply to every letter, but it is unrealistic to do so. Although I will still answer every letter, I doubt how long I can last. Do you want answers? You can go to any forum and reply to 200 posts a day to understand my feelings. After all, our work focuses on compiling manuscripts and making columns. I didn't reply to your letter, not because I didn't respect your work, but because I really didn't have time. Dude, I'm really tired after reading the manuscript all day.

9. Should editors be asked to modify articles for themselves?

You can ask, but be prepared for the editor's refusal. For the same reason.

Is it wrong for me to let the editor read my article online?

That's right. However, be prepared for the editor's refusal. Because it is very likely that the editor is reading other manuscripts, communicating with other authors and so on. How can an editor interrupt temporarily and be distracted to satisfy you?

1 1. Does it mean that it must be published?

Retention and release are two concepts. The editor took your manuscript because he thought it was suitable for the magazine. But every issue of our magazine will select the best draft among the good ones. I personally had the experience that the manuscript was taken down before it went to press. Whether it will be published will not be known until the magazine is finalized. The editor-in-chief will inform you that the manuscript has been used. If you haven't notified for a month, it means that the manuscript has been killed. Give it to another family quickly.

12. Should the article be revised according to the requirements of the editor?

I have to. Only the editor knows what kind of text the column needs. Don't doubt the editor's ability here. A good author must learn to modify the manuscript according to the requirements of the editor. I know a girl who can write a manuscript, but she is too fond of herself. The editor asked her to revise the manuscript herself, and she left a sentence: If you think my manuscript is not good, don't use it, I'll give it to others. Think about it, after this, will the editor let you write a manuscript in the future?

13. Do good articles have to be published in magazines?

Not necessarily. Good articles should also be suitable for magazine column setting. Even the best articles can't be used. After all, magazines don't just succumb to the author's column.

What are the articles that are not used in the best magazines?

Sensitive topics, too decadent stories, abnormal love and so on. There are ten inaccuracies in the magazine requirements.

What's the difference between online language and magazine language?

For example, online words such as "holy shit" and "fainting" should not appear in magazines casually. Magazines don't like broken sentences used on the Internet. For non-network topics, it is also best not to use too many network-specific vocabulary in the article. Others read more magazines and gradually understand.

Why do magazines like to use famous articles?

After the final list of the first issue of the magazine came out, many friends asked me, why do you like to use famous artists so much? Why not give ordinary people more opportunities? I asked, have you ever seen a karaoke champion hold a concert? A famous writer is famous because there are things in his articles that ordinary writers don't have. However, in fact, we still insist on reading articles rather than people when dealing with manuscripts. The first draft also killed the words of many famous writers, but it also published several first novels of writers' magazines. Those who have this question suggest to work harder and learn to improve themselves. After all, famous artists come out step by step. Don't be jealous of the aura in front of others and forget the hardships behind them.

17. Do you need to contribute with your sense of humor?

When a writer sent me a manuscript, there was a sentence at the top of the letter: There are too many words, please delete them. I am a little lazy. Is it humorous? I believe this author smiles when writing, but my reply is simple: I'm sorry, I'm lazier than you. Although it is the duty of editors to edit manuscripts, is it necessary to be so boring with their sense of humor? The editor thinks this is humor when you are in a good mood, but what is it when you are in a bad mood?

18. Is it necessary to be modest?

It's not necessary unless you insist on convincing the editor that your writing is terrible. Modesty is a virtue, but you have made your article useless. What do you want to show the editor? Have faith in yourself, brother.

What are the concepts of citation and plagiarism?

A quotation can only be a sentence, a small fragment and a bright spot. However, will it be a loss to take someone else's article as a new face and say it's your own? When I was looking for career stories, I received no less than twenty stories about myself when I applied for a job. There is a piece of paper, a mop, a dime and so on on the ground. Because I did a very easy thing, I was taken by my boss and became the top elite of the company. I don't care whether the story is true or not, but you saw such a story appear n years ago, and now you take it out. Do you think it's quotation or plagiarism?

Why don't you welcome to post articles online before publication?

It's not that you can't post articles online, but that you posted them online before they were published. Who can guarantee that your article will not be copied? Some local tabloids I know often spell out their own versions with articles online. I have experienced such a thing in my own composition. Originally a magazine had decided to publish it, but before finalizing it, I found that it was first published in the local newspaper. I began to doubt that I had contributed more than one article. In fact, I don't know this newspaper at all. what can I say? I retracted the manuscript myself.

2 1. What is the concept of multiple contributions for one manuscript?

Articles from more than two media. From my personal point of view, as an article writer, I very much hope that I can invest more in a job, and I have done it. However, now that I am an editor, I naturally have to consider the interests of the magazine. After all, we don't want our magazines to be leftovers for others to eat. For authors who submit more than one manuscript, we usually choose to give up. Don't explain that you don't know. This is the rule. If you don't know, you will be punished.

22. Do you need to promote yourself like this?

When an author contributed to me, he attached at the end of the article which issue of his article was published, with more than ten articles; Another author listed his award-winning experience, from district essay writing to enterprise trade union competition. I feel very strange after reading the manuscript. I don't want to talk. Why are you telling me so much? What you sent me was a manuscript, not a resume. To tell the truth, most editors don't like to receive such letters, and even if they do, they treat them as jokes. Don't say that we hurt your self-esteem, but do you think it is necessary for Ye Qingcheng to tell others which book and which issue he sent when writing an article? Speak in articles, not resumes.

Twenty-three, when can I start asking about the standard of manuscript fees?

You are a first-line writer, and your reputation is very high. The editor invites you to write an article. You can ask the standard of the manuscript fee before writing. If not, you contributed it yourself, so it's best not to ask before the article is published. After all, I think whether the article can be published is the most important thing. Generally, we will publish a standard for your manuscript fee, such as 100-400. I suggest that the average author should not ask how much it costs to edit this column if the article is not good enough. Honestly, you are not qualified.

24. Can I be friends with the editor outside the article?

Of course. Editors are human. Many times, you can communicate better by talking to the editor about topics other than articles properly. And personally, I also like to share the friendship and happiness between friends except articles. However, if the editor is working, it's best not to disturb him casually.

Twenty-five, can I talk to the editor QQ and say anything?

You can't. An author wrote to me and said on QQ that he sent three letters to my two mailboxes, but they were all returned. Then, I said, what kind of stupid mailbox do you use? To tell the truth, we usually communicate well, but I think it's better to say less. Your letter can't be sent. Is there something wrong with my mailbox? Even if there is something wrong with my mailbox, it's not your turn to blame.

26. What does it mean for the editor to talk to you concisely on QQ?

The editor is very busy, so you'd better not disturb him. Many people ask, since you are busy, what do you do with QQ? In fact, this question is naive. Is your cell phone always on? I'll call your cell phone and talk to you when I'm free. Will you be happy? Moreover, when we open QQ, we are often communicating with other authors.

Twenty-seven, publishing multiple mailboxes requires each mailbox to send the same text once?

Absolutely not. I originally posted only one submission email on the Internet, but later I posted another email because a friend said it was not convenient to contribute. But now, every time I receive a letter, I find that many authors submit an article to two mailboxes at the same time. I basically receive manuscripts between 150 and 200 a day. After two addresses were published, the mail soared. Among so many manuscripts, sometimes it is really difficult for me to tell which ones have been sent twice. Once I read the manuscript, I found it familiar. Is it plagiarism? Just when I was about to put this author in the cold shoulder, I remembered the reason of deja vu, because I read the email he sent to Netease in the morning and the text he sent to my Sohu email in the evening.

28. What should you do if the editor misunderstood you?

Don't worry, don't get excited, I believe this is a misunderstanding, and there will definitely be a time to explain clearly. In a few days, I will send an email to the editor's mailbox to explain things and explain my real situation. I don't think the editor will be too unreasonable. However, if you spread the news that the editor misunderstood you everywhere, even if the editor wants to bury the hatchet, he may choose to forget it in the end.

29. How many editors do I need to contact for a magazine?

One is enough. Many magazines stipulate that an author can only contact one editor. This is a rule, you must abide by it whether you like it or not. Unless the editors explicitly tell you, they don't mind one author contacting multiple editors.

30. If you are not satisfied with the existing editor, can you change the editor directly?

Since your article has not been published in this magazine, you can choose a new editor. However, if you choose a new editor, you must tell the other person why you left the old editor. If your article has been edited and published in the past, I'm sorry, even if your cooperation is no longer pleasant, you can't change it casually. If you really want to change it, call the editor-in-chief and state the reasons. You can only change it if the editor-in-chief agrees.

Do you want me to send the manuscript directly to the editor's mailbox?

Not so good. Generally, the editor-in-chief will not personally participate in soliciting contributions, so unless you are a very good friend of the editor-in-chief, you'd better not post it, because it is equal to white hair.

32. Can we invite other editors who are not responsible for their own editing to read articles?

Better not. Authors in the hands of other editors sometimes really hesitate to read articles because they don't know what to say after reading them. If I say yes, people may feel bad about it; I don't know, but what if the editor likes it? Besides, what will your editor think if I read your article? If you think I'm robbing the author, won't it cause misunderstanding between editors? & ampn b-space run:yes " & gt； 29. How many editors do I need to contact for a magazine?
