  When it comes to the innovation of the new work, Li Xiaoxiao introduced that it includes the following points: The first part copies the mobile phone page, friend circle, public account and other forms. It looks like a shell, but the characters, stories, including scenery descriptions and other traditional novels have all the features. The elements are all inside.

  The second part is a full dialogue novel, that is, it is all dialogue.

In addition, "handbook style" means writing relatively short articles, for example, writing 10 articles. The entire novel is 10 "thousand-character articles", which can include novels, essays, new stories, etc.

  Regarding the articles in the book, Li Yunlei commented that "Circle of Friends" not only has a new sense of form and writes the characters very vividly, but also cleverly links the traditional novel's method of shaping characters with new forms.

  Li Xiaoxiao was born in 1981. He has published short stories and short stories in October, Contemporary, People's Literature, Beijing Literature and other publications.

She also thinks a lot about writing.

  Li Xiaoxiao said that the child skill of literature is not to take exams, study, score very high, etc. The child skill is to spontaneously read literary works, and to truly invest in life, that is, real life and passionate reading.

  "The unit of literature is not words and sentences, but things smaller than words and sentences that travel through the pages of the book. Reading these things is meaningful." Li Xiaoxiao said, "We must engage in literature with confidence. Literature is particularly rich and can be studied for a lifetime. Enough for you to study." (End)
