From the time the book was released at the end of September last year to now, it has taken a total of more than nine months and written 2.64 million words. On average, more than 9,000 words have been updated every day.
I dare say that there are not many writers at Qidian who can do this.
This is a high-intensity creative process, and the torture for people is unimaginable. The body is full of diseases due to the continuous reversal of day and night, and disordered work and rest. There are some problems with the liver and stomach. I plan to go for a check-up in the future.
And mentally I became even more exhausted.
A great writer once said: The biggest enemy of any long serial novel is not the plot, not the writing style...it is nothing. The biggest enemy is the author himself.
This statement does not deceive me!
I still remember that when this book first came on the shelves, I was so enthusiastic and motivated that I could write 400,000 words in a month.
But over the long period of serialization, this enthusiasm has been slowly worn away.
Writing this book requires making trade-offs and balances in too many aspects. Some people like the harem, and some people are annoyed by the harem plot; some people have read the original work, and some have not; some people want to
Watch more original plots, but some people bluntly say that they won’t click on the original plot points once they see them; some people want to see more detailed fights, while some people think that long fights are just too few words...
...
There are too many readers with completely opposite positions and views. How to make a choice among them and try to satisfy people on both sides is a matter that tests the author's ability.
At the same time, it was also a very draining thing. By the end of writing it, I was really exhausted mentally and physically, so I gave up on the Fairyland chapter.
Because I know that I can’t get back to my current state, and my enthusiasm for this book has been exhausted. If I start the fairyland chapter again, I will definitely not be able to write it well.
In fact, even when I was in the worst state of this book, the updates were the slowest, and the plot was not good, the number of people subscribing to the new chapter every day was around 1,500.
This is a very good result compared to my average order, which shows that even when I didn't write well and got even less, there were a large number of people who never left me.
Even my editor was surprised and said that the readership of my book was not particularly strong.
I am a little proud and very grateful!
Thank you to every friend for your company and support!
I know that if I open the Immortal World chapter, many people will continue to read it, the results will not be bad, and I will make a lot of money.
My friends and editors are also urging me not to finish the book easily, but to continue writing this book. Even if I update 4,000 words a day, I have to keep it up. To maintain the exposure of this book, I can make a lot of money by relying on a group of old readers.
money.
My editor even bluntly said that the Internet literature industry is in a state of chaos now, and many great writers are rushing to publish new books. Can you guarantee that your next book will be successful?
They all do it for my own good and what they say makes sense.
But I can only live up to their good intentions. I really don’t want to write anymore because I know that I can’t write the fairyland chapter well.
If you continue to write when you know your writing is not good, then you are irresponsible to the readers, and it is simply a waste of money.
So I chose to finish this book.
I would like to apologize to every reader who is waiting for the fairyland chapter!
I failed everyone’s expectations!
Next, I would also like to thank everyone, thank every reader for their subscription, vote, reward, and comment, and thank the editor for his great support and encouragement.
I would also like to thank Wangyu Dada for creating such a wonderful story. Mortal is really a monument in the world of online literature. It is only because of Wangyu Dada that I can make a living.
Also, I would like to thank myself. Thanks to my persistence and hard work, this book, which had only 700 initial subscriptions, now has 4,000 subscriptions.
Before writing this book, I can say that I didn’t know how to write online articles at all. I just relied on my own aura to write a lot of poisonous points.
This book taught me a lot.
This is my best book, and it allowed me to evolve from a street slut to an author who can earn a living by writing books.
Of course, when I look back at this book from my current perspective, I can find too many shortcomings.
However, it is precisely these shortcomings that allow me to clearly see my progress.
For me, what I fear most is not having shortcomings, but not being able to discover my own shortcomings. Once I find a problem, I can come up with ways to correct it. This is my confidence as a problem solver in a small town.
Let’s talk about the new book.
Many people in the group and comment area asked about the new book, but actually I haven’t decided what to write about yet.
In addition, I also want to take a good rest and adjust my state, so it is still unknown what I will write and when I will post it.
Also, this book still owes 14 additional chapters to the leader of the alliance, and 22 additional chapters to order. I still remember these, so I can only repay them by buying another copy.
Finally, I wish everyone who sees this can have a wonderful summer and be happy every day!
