Here are some ways to earn money by submitting novels:
** 1. Participating in the essay competition **
1. ** Understand essay requirements **
- For example, the "Li Ruzhen Micro-novel Award" should pay attention to its award setting, including one first prize with a bonus of 2000 yuan, three second prizes with a bonus of 1000 yuan each, five third prizes with a bonus of 500 yuan each, etc. There was also a contest for short stories, such as the pineapple bun light novel (TF light novel). The requirement was to create a short story. There was no limit to the subject matter, but it had to be an original work. The word count had to be between 2000 to 30000 words, the story had to be complete, and the work's status was "completed" at the deadline.
2. ** Confirm submission method **
- Take the "Li Ruzhen Micro-novel Award" as an example. All the works submitted were in electronic form (word document). Paper works were not accepted. The dedicated email for submission was
[email protected]. In the subject line of the email, the title of "Li Ruzhen's Micro-novel Award + Author's Name + Participating Works" should be indicated. In addition, the author's real name, mailing address, mobile phone number, and email address should be indicated. At the end of the work, a brief introduction of the author within 100 words should be attached. Each author was limited to two articles. More than one submission was invalid.
** 2. Submit to a third party **
1. ** Find a suitable editor **
- Don't rely on sharing the forms of the three parties to find an editor, because online editing is very fluid. He could share the latest single article and find an editor who had just submitted it. You could also pay more attention to the blogger who submitted the manuscript at a high price every time. The three parties who submitted the manuscript often had the strength to pay the price.
2. ** Dealing with Rejection **
- If the manuscript was rejected by the same editor three times in a row, it could be changed to another editor.
3. ** Breakthrough the price bottleneck **
- If the price was always hovering around the same price and could not be refreshed to a higher price, other than increasing his strength, he could also change the type of writing. For example, changing from modern language to ancient language.
4. ** Choose the payment method **
- For newcomers, if there was a big difference between a low price guarantee and a high price buy out, they would choose the high price first. Moreover, getting a high price would also be considered a historical achievement, so it would be easier for him to ask for a higher price later. In addition, set a psychological price for yourself. Don't blindly sign a low price. Otherwise, it may continue to lower the psychological acceptance limit and affect subsequent rewards. If the editor rejected the manuscript and pointed out the problem, don't easily modify it and submit it again, so as to avoid falling into a situation where you can't complete the submission after repeated modifications.
In addition, there were also long-term requests for manuscripts on some platforms. For example,"Ayu Wensi" had a long-term request for manuscripts. The manuscript fee was 20 - 200 yuan per article (basic + contract signing reward), the word count requirement was 300 - 2000, and the review period was 5 working days.
