非常伤心。一个月没有双休了。
不过最伤心的还是搜写作相关的论坛,发现国内的不符合需求。挂上梯子去外网溜达了一圈非常高兴,拜拜了您嘞中文区,我就要住在Royal Road.网文是几乎看不下去的,不知道为什么。RR最好的地方在于它的去商业性,没有任何直接付费渠道,全凭个人爱好(好像可以用Patreon打钱)。
随便搜了几个标签,众多作品中有两三个打眼一看就是同国籍人写的,其中一个叫什么,How the Stars Turned Red,我没细看,点进评论夸的蛮多。高低要评鉴一番。看简介是一位术语长难句高手,陌生长单词当穿甲弹用不要钱:
In the latter half of the 3rd millennium CE, humanity has spread across the stars, inhabiting close to five-hundred worlds across the Orion Arm. Earth has become irrelevant, a historical has-been. The galactic map is dominated by two mega-factions, both controlling vast amounts of territories either through direct control or through their many allies and treaty signatories.
The Kingdom of Aurora is the political and economic hegemon despite consisting of only seven inhabited worlds; their strength lies in the Royal Union, an interstellar commonwealth comprising an internal market and a common defence pact. These member worlds are myriad and varied, culturally as well as politically, but they all flock to the same banner.
The Independent Systems Alliance, spearheaded by the Republic of Elysium, is the ascendant challenger to Aurora and the Union. A pseudo-federal multi-system polity, the Alliance economy and military is rapidly expanding, but at the cost of effective democratic and meritocratic involvement by its people.
However, with two superpowers as this, chafing along a common border, and with a constant clamour of polemics, both sides have become convinced the other is constantly preparing for war and are on the look-out for any perceived weakness in their opponent. The predictable result is a huge arms race and a cold war spreading across the stars, requiring only a spark to set the galaxy aflame.
Drawn into this game of high stakes are ordinary men and women, their peaceful lives, hopes, and aspirations swallowed by the vortex of conflict and distrust. This is their story.
Hope you like long chapters and adjectives.
Note: English is not my first language.
光看简介一般吧,没什么吸引力。而且这是在写小说还是写导读。
有个作者写的无限流看了第一篇,挺好看的。叫Die Trying,这是他写的第二本书:
Jump into a savage fantasy deathworld. Smuggle magical loot and refugees back to Earth. Try not to die in the process.
Michael Wade's only goal in life was to get rich or die trying - and that's gotten a lot more literal recently.
Stuck in retail hell with debt, rent and crippling guilt, his days were spent paycheck to paycheck between broke and completely screwed.
Until a desperate god offers him the ultimate side hustle: running a nightly smuggling operation between his bedroom and another world entirely. One filled with spells, treasure, and as much magical contraband as he can stuff into his pockets.
Just one problem: It's no place for tourists. Shaped from calamity after calamity, Azdrial has transformed into the ultimate deathworld. If the people there don't kill Wade, the land itself sure will.
But with a reality-bending video game System to exploit, past gaming years as a min/maxing fanatic, and a chaotic god texting him questionably useful advice - he might just stand a chance.
And he's gonna need it - because his starting location is marked 'Lethal Difficulty.'
这才是正确的简介。不过这玩意儿也太像中文网文里会出现的东西了。挺套路的一个开头。
好了坏事就发生在我注册账号点收藏,方便下次看的时候。
注册不了一点。排查了两个小时原因,没有查出来。翻墙上网总是会遇见许多哭诉无门的水土不服BUG,提示我发的邮件被识别为spam,建议正常方式注册。outlook这么没排面吗?还是我魔法上网的问题?走遍全网没有一个遇到相同的问题,让我死了这条心。
不能在一棵树上吊死,又去找别的论坛。国外这种东西真的多,国内啥也没有。其他小说平台也不少,但都不合胃口。RR我的白月光。
虽然不用注册账号也能看吧。但我怎么发评论?真没意思。
RR还有自带的论坛可以讨论,活人感很足。我要找一下有没有我想看的类型。
不知道是不是错觉,RR上的作品总体质量很高,读着很舒服。总不能是我中文退化了吧?
看到一个作者疑问,自己的作品文字看起来很轻,但是多轻算轻,多重算重?还放了自己作品的链接。太新了还没有人回复,等我看两眼,把我加班浪费的时间补回来。
这好像就是单纯文风的问题??
