Why
I wrote these novels?
|
There is nothing in my brain when I
try to write the foreword or postscript. So you
could regard these words as foreword or
postcript.
In
truth, I have not written any novel before.
Because no one would pay attention on what I
wrote, even which I think best. Sometime my
friends might have a look on my articles, but
soon they would turned back. So I am not ever
determined to become an writer.
It's
sudden for me to write these two novels.
Love
in Fall is my first novel. At the beginning,
I had no idea to write it as a novel. I just
regard it as an essay when I wrote "This
must be the 22nd fall of mine" on the paper.
And meanwhile, I suddenly missed a girl, whom I
seeking for almost 2 years. But for some reasons,
we only became friends, the best friends. At that
time, I missed her so much that I added her as
the actress into this essay. And of course, the
end of us in the essay is very satisfactory.
The
next day, my friend thought it fine when he
finished reading it. And his advice is why not to
write it as novel. Why not? I agreed immediately.
Because it's first time that my essay was
accepted. For the purpose to meet my friends'
requirement, I finished within 2 months. The
result is that the essay with 500 words became
the novel composed of more than 70 thousand
words.
The
motivation of 2nd novel is simple. Because it was
born with the success of the first one. Another
reason is I still missed the girl very much. In
that essay, she is still whom I missed. But the
actress in the 1st novel is no longer the girl I
missed. She combined characteristics from various
girls, and the stories were also from different
actresses. I was so regret that I decided to
wrtie a novel of ours, only she and me. So the
2nd novel is also a soliloguy of a boy's love.

What
did I write?
|
Someone might ask me, what you wrote
on earth?
It is
difficut to give the best answer. In fact he
asked me to brief the two novels. It is
impossible, because I would do it early so far as
I could. If he want me to talk about the concept
of the two novels. It's neither impossible.
Because I wrote the 1st novel without conceptive
work. So I have no answer .
But
the 2nd novel is different. The stories in the
novel are happened on myself. So it's easy to
deal with. The trouble is only that out of the
novel there is no result between she and me. But
my purpose is to create a good end, not like the
reality. So in the novel, I suposed two
destination. One is "She would become my
firend, best friend, girlfriend, and at the end
become my wife", the other is "We loved
each other, and we hated each other". I
choose the latter, because I want to have a good
emotional result between us. But who could say we
are not fall in love?
Summry,
What I written is my opinion about love, which a
girl give me. Of course, she also effected on the
actresses in both novels: LE-jie and LU-ye, whom
have the same characteristics such as canniness,
crackajack, sonsy. Such kind of girls are
welcome, but they all have the same shortcoming
that they are afraid of admitting to be loved. To
admit to be loved means they fault in the game of
love. Maybe such girls are minority, but the
actresses in novel are from the girl whom I
missed. So They have such characteristics, no
matter whether you like them or not.
That's
why I wrote these two novels. It is simply for a
girl whom I missed so much.
