I accidentally wrote a novel that was very similar to someone else's. What happened?There were several possible reasons why writing a novel was similar to someone else's work:
** 1. Plot **
1. ** The use of common routines **
- Many novel types had a fixed plot routine. For example, in farming novels, the common plot was that a farmer girl who had transmigrated would have an intersection with a noble male protagonist (such as a prince, general, prince, etc.) and eventually be happy. This model was adopted by many authors. In fantasy cultivation novels, the good-for-nothing was killed by a supporting character and then possessed by a transmigrator. When he was training in the forest, he was noticed by the big shots. After that, he experienced danger and was attracted to the female protagonist. In the end, he realized that the person who had been entangled with him for several lifetimes was the same person. This kind of plot was also quite common. When an author chose this type of common genre, they might unconsciously use a similar plot routine, resulting in similarities between the plot and other novels.
2. ** Limited source of inspiration **
- The author's source of inspiration might overlap. For example, some popular movies, historical stories, or myths and legends might become a source of inspiration for multiple authors. If multiple authors drew inspiration from the same material and did not make enough unique processing, it was easy to write similar plots. For example, if multiple authors refer to the characters and story settings of the same mythological system in an urban supernatural novel with a foreign mythological background, there might be similarities in the plot construction.
** 2. Character Creation **
1. ** The Universality of Character Prototypes **
- Some typical characters were more common in novels. For example, the image of an overbearing president and a cute male protagonist was widely used. If the author didn't create a unique image for these characters, but only used their basic personality traits (such as the strength, wealth, and loyalty of the overbearing CEO, the gentleness, thoughtfulness, and dependence of the puppy male protagonist), then the character creation might be similar to other works.
2. ** Lacking unique character background design **
- When creating character backgrounds, if there was a lack of innovation, it would be easy to be similar to other works. For example, in a time-travel story, the female protagonist had a premonition that she was going to time-travel and then hoarded a large amount of supplies. If multiple authors designed it this way, it would lead to similarities.
** 3. Subconscious influence in the creative process **
1. ** Potential impact of reading accumulation **
- In the process of reading a large number of novels, authors would store some plots and character creation methods in their subconscious. When he was writing, these subconscious elements might inadvertently surface, causing the novel he wrote to be similar to the works he had read before. For example, an author who had read many school-style novels might be influenced by the previous reading in terms of plot design (such as romantic love stories on campus, competition and friendship between students, etc.) or character creation (such as a bookworm male protagonist, a lively female protagonist, etc.) when he wrote his own school novel.

Or else, the sourceThe source of "otherwise" is "Book of Songs·Da Ya·Board":"God board, the people die." If you don't, it's not far away." There is also Mozi Ci Guo: "The treasury is full, enough to wait for others."
The novel,"The Morality of the Past", is equally exciting. Everyone is welcome to click and read it!
Please fix chapter 188, it is garbage(Not sure what happened there). Everything else is awesome, loving the story! :D
