I am a common person, and I have no lofty purpose in writing online novels, nor do I have a grand ideal of becoming a famous writer. I only have one purpose, to make money.
Because I have been poor for more than 20 years, I am already afraid of poverty.
The feeling of poverty is really terrible and very uncomfortable. It is as real and painful as if someone is cutting your flesh with a knife.
If you have also experienced the hard days of having no money, you will know how I feel at this time. So I desperately want to make money, making money can give me a sense of security.
I was very moved when I saw that many famous online writers were earning millions or even tens of millions in royalties. I thought writing novels was the most profitable profession. Until I entered this industry, my ideals were severely slapped in the face by the cruel reality.

On April 2, 2016, I uploaded my first novel on the website - The Promise Sword Master Yi. Because I followed the good-for-nothing counterattack routine, I successfully signed a contract with the website after 30,000 words. Just when I thought
When I was about to embark on the road to making money, become a rich and handsome man, and marry a beautiful woman, the dismal reading and collection of this book hit me in the face again.
This book has a total of more than 1.2 million words and has been completed. At the end of the writing, only one reader was reading it. Relying on this book, I successfully earned the first pot of gold for writing novels - 200,000 yuan.
It took me more than a year to write this novel. Fortunately, I am not writing novels full-time. Otherwise, with these 200 yuan, it would only be a matter of time before I starve to death.
The first novel ended in a disastrous failure. Only then did I realize that the only people who make money by writing novels are the masters at the top of the pyramid, while third-rate writers like me can’t even make enough food and clothing. If you really want to make money, I
I can tell you that any profession in the world can make money faster than writing novels.
Although the first novel failed, I did not give up and published the second novel - Qianyu Xianxun on the website on April 2, 2018. This is an anti-routine novel with a slow-moving plot, so
When I wrote 30,000 words and applied for a contract, I was rejected.
My heart suddenly became cold.
I have written a novel! I was rejected for signing the contract?
So I was not convinced and applied again on April 16, 2018. The result of the application was still: the review failed.
On April 24, I applied for a contract, and the application result was: the review failed.
On May 9, I applied for a contract, and the application result was: the review failed.
On May 21, I applied for a contract, and the application result was: the review failed.
On June 4, I applied for a contract, and the application result was: the review failed.
On June 14th, I applied for a contract, and the application result was: the review failed.
On June 24, I applied for a contract, and the application result was: the review failed.
I was rejected so many times that I was disheartened, but I still kept updating. At this time, I had written nearly 300,000 words, and I no longer had high hopes for signing a contract. I applied for a contract only once a month.
On July 29, I applied for a contract, and the application result was: the review failed.
On August 22, I applied for a contract, and the application result was: the review failed.
On September 14th, I applied for a contract, and the application result was: the review failed.
On October 24, I applied for a contract, and the application result was: the review failed.
I have been writing for six months since the publication, and my application for contract signing has been rejected twelve times. During this time, I happened to be doing an internship in foreign trade in Dongguan. I worked during the day and wrote at night. I could only update one chapter a day, and sometimes I was very busy.
Continuous updates.
Even so, I still did not give up writing. On November 27, I submitted the application again, and the result was: the application was signed successfully.
Damn it!
Finally succeeded!
When I saw the message from the editor, I was as happy as a child weighing more than 200 pounds. It was a kind of heartfelt joy, a joy that money cannot bring.
The successful signing of the contract gave me the confidence to continue writing. Today, Qianyu Xianxun has written 720,000 words, and the sales and collections are still bleak. I have been writing for more than a year, and I have not earned a penny. I am purely using it.
Love to generate electricity.
You may think that I am a bit stupid. I know that I have no money to make but I still insist on writing. I know that no one will read but I still keep updating every day. I know that there is no future but I still don’t want to give up. I know that the slow-burn writing method is changing at a fast pace.
The online writing circle, which focuses on rhythm, is not popular...
Maybe you are right, maybe I am really a fool.
But...as long as I can continue to write and continue to create wonderful and beautiful stories for everyone, there is no harm in being a fool?
