Break the novel creation method with a small blog

Destiny is a grand and eternal topic, and most authors are more taboo to explain directly.

"In the process of fighting with destiny, her state was particularly moving."

Fu Xiuying, a writer and deputy editor -in -chief of "Chinese Writers", believes that using a typical Chinese character such as A Tai, exploring a grand and eternal theme such as fate is a small approach. "The kind of tolerance, peace, no joy, and no sadness, and the gesture of shaking hands with fate is very impressed."

In Fu Xiuying's view, the novel "Destiny" has a flying attitude. "It is not to write a fireworks on the earth on the earth, and it can always fly from the rolling red dust. When you really chew and digestion, it magically involved in it. The construction of your mental bones. "
