Unknowingly, it’s this time again, and Xiaoyun’s second book is about to be released!
During this period, he experienced many major life events, including family, studies, and entering society... Xiaoyun finally decided to give up many things, temporarily putting aside his PhD (although it was largely affected by the epidemic), giving up his high-paying job, and trying to
Concentrate on embarking on the path of being an author.
The reason for this choice is probably to try to understand what I really want through reflection, so that more people can understand, appreciate and accept my creations and ideas.
The same low self-esteem, the same hesitation. As a complete idealist, it seems that nothing has changed.
I don’t know if such a choice can work, and whether the end of life can reach a height that I can accept. But no matter what, it is ultimately my choice. Once you have made a decision, you must do everything you can to do your best.
Those who have read Xiaoyun's first book will probably feel that Xiaoyun is good at overall structure and weak at character creation. During the period after Lamarck finished the book and started publishing it in Blood Candle Castle, Xiaoyun can be said to have not rested for a day.
, constantly exploring and remedying one's own strengths and weaknesses.
The Blood Candle Castle that I present to you now can be said to be Xiaoyun’s confidence in all aspects and has greatly surpassed his previous achievements.
However, newcomers are still newcomers after all, and there are still many problems exposed here.
For example, the reading threshold seems to be much higher than expected. Originally, I planned to proceed step by step, leaving all those romantic narratives and brain-burning ideas to the middle and later on, and start telling the story from a more normal beginning.
Judging from the results now, "normal" is probably a mountain that Xiaoyun cannot climb in his life...
Another example is the slow start. Starting from the beginning, reversing, reversing, reversing, inserting narratives, reversing... After calculation, Miss Thirteen officially learns to upgrade, begins to study her own extraordinary, and unfolds the plot centered on the Blood Candle Castle.
There are almost 400,000 words in that time.
There are many very subtle ideas in it, which are very interesting. Xiaoyun was reluctant to delete them just to make it easier for most people to understand.
After all, reading is just for fun. Since there are interesting things right in front of you, why do you have to pursue some routine to feel happy?
To sum up, this is probably another niche book that is difficult to become popular, but those of you who like it will read it with gusto. The final height of this book may only depend on the reading of this paragraph.
Are you willing to promote it to more people?
(We no longer count on the recommendation effect of the platform, it is for normal people. It will not rise when you push it, and it will rise wildly if you don’t push it. This is the virtue of the previous book orz)
Of course, whether this book is worth recommending to you still has to be seen in the future. As Xiaoyun just said, it is very slow to gain popularity, but the price of the slow main story is the rich foreshadowing, details, and reversals in the plot.
, all kinds of interesting little designs. Taking the complex structures that I am good at to the limit.
I hope everyone can give a relatively comprehensive evaluation when they see the beginning of the official plot of the Blood Candle Keep in Chapter 5, right?
In any case, Xiaoyun has no habit of giving up halfway. Even if he really doesn't make money, he will tell the story from beginning to end without any deductions.
Xiaoyun believes that this will be a very interesting book that will impress you.
Then follow the custom of posting a thank you.
Thanks to the editor-in-chief, Sister Fuling, who provided a lot of resources for this new book. Thanks to Phoebeling, who chose to support Xiaoyun's choice when faced with life choices. Thanks to everyone who invested a lot of time and energy to almost produce a book of paintings for Blood Candle Castle.
Eisen Adrian and Nitch who left beautiful illustrations.
(Well, a spoiler, this book will have ten character cards. They represent girls with different origins, personalities, races, positions, and camps that are even contradictory to each other. They will live together and do amazing things.
things...
Each character card will be accompanied by exquisite color drawings, expression collections, avatars and conventional poem numbers. Don’t forget to browse the files under the character card.)
Thanks to Wutong Qixia, Tianjiuxing and Little Angel who gave a large reward as soon as the new book was published; thanks to Xiaohei who encourages Xiaoyun every day and leaves a lot of chapters; thanks to put forward a lot of opinions before the book is released.
’s Tokyo Floating and Muyu Hongyi;
Thank you to all the forty-four little cuties who have voted and rewarded this book so far; and to you who have silently supported Xiaoyun and read this book even if you have not voted or commented.
Finally, I am here to roll around like a coquettish person, begging for first order and attention~
Prepare to compete for the new book monthly ticket list, and I will be addicted to the monthly ticket throughout August. The cute master will add more updates, and you can order every 100 extra updates (these two are valid for a long time, in case you forget to leave a message to remind), and every 150 monthly tickets will be added in August
One update.
Don't be afraid that you won't be able to repay the debt. Anyway, you know Xiaoyun. He can't publish a book without saving hundreds of thousands of words.
Well, if you vote for two monthly tickets, you can also unlock a 5,000-word extra chapter. (It is said that after voting, you can see the extra chapter in the chapter directory)
Then there is a crowdfunding event before the 5th. If you tip enough 1,500 coins from 8pm to midnight, you will get extra monthly tickets. Xiaoyun never insists on tipping, but if there are any cuties who are ready to tip in the near future, it will be very good.
It is recommended to choose this time period.
Also, in this event, the rewards can be doubled only if they are given to works rather than characters, so we will make a temporary change during this month’s event and invest the rewards you left for Miss Thirteen in books (rewards after September will still be
Please give me the character to increase the star value hehe)
