Scaffold

He has been writing this novella "Eternal Memory" for a long time, and the basic ideas and framework of the novel have already been established, but it has not achieved the desired effect. The most troublesome thing is that as I write, all kinds of complicated thoughts come flooding in, and they are repeated over and over again. It feels important wherever I put it, but it doesn't seem to be in the best place. He now realizes more and more how difficult it is to create a stream-of-consciousness novel. It is not easy to express the interlacing of time and space, like a mess of free association, in an orderly manner according to psychological time. Even the painstaking Faulkner used fonts of different thicknesses in the confusing "The Sound and the Fury" to hint at the flow and changes of the characters' thoughts at a certain moment. Although it has overcome the shortcomings of stream-of-consciousness novels that are too self-enclosed and lack interaction with readers to a certain extent, the artificial traces are still too heavy and seem a bit abrupt, making it difficult to achieve the desired effect. After all, novels are language arts. Even if they are movies that are more visual and intuitive audio-visual arts, this kind of leaping time and space transformation is still a bit dizzying, especially when watching movies of the Soviet montage school for the first time. Although this editing method is simple and fast, it greatly improves the expressiveness of the film in terms of breadth and depth. As a literary language art that shows the soul of characters, it requires richer imagination and implicit and profound expression techniques. It must not only express the author's inner thoughts, emotions and psychological time, but also be accepted by readers in an orderly manner. Just like the scaffolding opposite the window, although it looks simple on the surface, its structure is very intricate.
