I had seen the Qidian event a long time ago, but I didn’t pay much attention to it at first. Later I saw that in the author group, everyone was writing this [New Year’s letter to book friends].
After thinking about it, I will also write it.
Looking back at the creative experience last year, that is, 2022, well... there seems to be nothing much to say about this book. I opened it on August 26th, wrote it for a month, and put it on the shelves in October, and then until now.
The free period is one month, and it has been on the shelves for nearly four months.
I have written nearly 900,000 words, which is still a good effort.
I planned to write this book to 2.5 million words. When I finished writing and signed the contract, I also wrote the same in the column of the completed word count.
My grades dropped a bit later on, so I decided to finish writing 2 million words.
Two million words is a challenge for me. I have never written a novel with such a long word count before.
This book is also my first attempt to write a fairy tale novel, and I was lucky enough to achieve pretty good results.
At the beginning of writing this book, I saw the IDs of many book friends of old works, but later on, there were fewer and fewer, and they said that what I wrote was not as good as the previous books, and the writing style of the previous books was not as good.
Many readers have said this, and I feel quite uncomfortable in my heart. I have no choice but to write books that are getting worse and worse, which is a very tragic thing.
Also, when I started this book, I was in a hurry. I planned to follow the example of "Red Hero" and write a fairy tale novel with a red direction. I already thought of the name, "Red Immortal", and the main text was also written...
I took it and sent it to the editor, who told me that it would take 6,000 words to sign the contract. I wrote 4,000 words... and then I stayed up all night and decided that "Red Immortal" was not good. I hadn't read enough classical fairy tales, so I used
I spent several hours rewriting the beginning, which is the first three chapters of this book.
I code very slowly and can only write a thousand words in an hour. When this book was first put on the shelves, I sat in front of the computer for more than ten hours a day and wrote 10,000 words.
Now I am slacking off and only write four hours a day, one chapter...
To be honest, I don't think I have much talent when it comes to writing books.
I have been writing since I was a freshman and have been writing since I graduated in 2021. I have been writing for six years.
In five years, I signed dozens of books and wrote a total of four to five million words. I haven't written a single Qianju book. I thought about giving up this industry. I really had no money to spend, so I was forced to write a fanfic.
, is also the novel of this account, with more than 1.6 million words completed, "The Heavens Starting from Bailuyuan".
Unexpectedly, this fanfic turned out to be my first masterpiece. My writing style has been praised by readers, and my writing has been recognized.
So, in April 2022, I opened the first original book of the Republic of China, "I Rewrote Family History". I am very proud of this book because it does not contain big figures, does not involve any influential figures of the Republic of China, etc.
, I only wrote the story of a small character, and the plot was very ordinary to the extreme. It was a masterpiece achieved simply by the power of writing...
It's just a pity that the writing is not enjoyable. This family history has failed. The more I write, the less I read it. The showy writing style no longer attracts readers.
So far, the family history has been written intermittently, and I have never given up.
After experiencing the torture of illness in June and July, and having no money to spend, I thought about it and decided that I had to write a book, so I started writing this book.
I'm surprised that this book is such a top-notch product when it's first ordered.
Three high-quality books in a row in a year, I am so scared that I dare not think that my potential is so great.
After all, this book was not polished at first and was written completely casually...
The character bar has not been enabled...
My grades dropped later, and although I was a little disappointed, I wasn't too lonely. I learned a lot from this fairy book.
Some points that were previously difficult to reach.
New Year approached.
In 2023, I wish you all a happy New Year in advance. I wish you all a happy family reunion, happiness and joy.
My culture is limited, so I can't say anything too beautiful in my New Year's greetings.
