This speech was written after Sanjiang and before the strong recommendation. The timing is a bit different, but for me, it is appropriate.
As for the comments, you have to experience it before you can feel it!
This week's Sanjiang, the biggest feeling for me is "stimulation", because Sanjiang has increased a lot of collections. Before going to Sanjiang, my collection was about 9,000. By the time Sanjiang is about to end today, my collection has increased by more than 8,000, which is almost
Doubling it is indeed a feeling of taking off.
This book has been written for a total of eighty-one days to this day. It is eighty-one difficult to obtain scriptures from the Western Heaven, and my feelings are similar. It may be an exaggeration to say that it is "difficult (four tones)", but if it is said to be "difficult (two tones)"
'But it's not an exaggeration at all. Writing a historical novel is indeed a difficult thing for me.
I am a science major, and this is my first historical novel. I am indeed not good enough in terms of historical background. But since I have made up my mind to write a historical novel, I have to work hard on the historical background.
.My idea is that this is a novel after all and cannot be written as a history book. I want to get as close to history as possible without affecting the plot. Therefore, I checked a lot of information in order to avoid big bugs that would affect the reader's reading experience.
.
But as the writing progressed, I found that a lot of the information I looked up was actually useless. Because many people who like to find faults, the 'history' they follow is not the history of the information I found. The history they follow,
It’s the history from the TV series they’ve watched, the history from the last book they’ve read, it’s a preconceived history. If I write it differently from what he sees, he won’t be able to tell who is against whom.
If he is wrong, he must jump out and criticize someone to show his knowledge.
Give an example: Kaiyuan Tongbao. Because of the word "Kaiyuan", many people think that this is the currency issued by Li Longji. I thought so at first, but after checking the information, I found out that Kaiyuan Tongbao was the currency issued by Li Yuan in Wuhan.
The currency issued by Germany in four years had nothing to do with Li Longji. So an embarrassing thing happened. These people talked about "educating" me without knowing that they were the ignorant ones, and as the author, I
What can I do? I can't write a single chapter and argue with him, right? This is a novel after all, not a forum. I have to think about more people who will read the story, right?
After several similar incidents, I got used to it. I no longer get angry because of this kind of thing, and I don’t want to correct it. There is a saying that it is rare to be confused, as long as everyone is happy. I just write what I want according to my own ideas and rhythm.
This is the novel presented to everyone.
I'm not a fast writer. It usually takes me an hour and a half to write a 2,000-word chapter. Because sometimes my mind gets confused, and I don't know why, but typos always appear when typing. In order not to be embarrassed, I still have to write a chapter after I finish it.
It takes another ten minutes to check it over and correct it. But it’s better now. Maybe it’s because I’ve been writing for more than two months and I’ve become more proficient.
Speaking of Sanjiang and strong recommendation, it should be the recommendation position that authors at Qidian have dreamed of. Not to mention the effect, it is naturally the best among all recommendation positions. And its symbolic meaning is also extraordinary, usually only editors and readers
Only books that are recognized and recommended can win this honor. This is my first historical novel, and to be able to get this recommendation is, to be honest, a real fluke.
Like most new authors, when I give out recommendations at 2pm every Friday, I am very uneasy and anxious, for fear that there will be no recommendations the next week.
Because my confidence in myself is not insufficient, and the books in the same period seem to be quite good, and I am a new lv.1 author, mixed in with many lv.3, 4, 5 old authors and even great gods,
I also thought in my mind, why should I be given good recommendations? After joining the historical author group, I saw people chatting in the group, and this worry became more serious. Although I didn’t speak, everyone’s analysis was very interesting.
Reason. Just think about it, among the authors who can be signed, which one is not diligent in updating, and which one is not creative and recognized by the editor, but I am an author who is not amazing in creativity, not outstanding in writing, and does not seem to have any special advantages. Why would he recommend it to me?
?
Thinking like this, I feel a little depressed. But fortunately, I am very resilient. Even if I am a little depressed, I still update step by step according to my thoughts and rhythm every day at scheduled times. Facts have proved that on the platform of Qidian.
, your dedication and efforts will be noticed. Finally last week, Sanjiang recommendation came!
As an author, I just did what I should do. There are many authors who work the same as me, or even work harder than me. Therefore, the reason why this book can be published in Sanjiang is entirely due to every click and every collection of readers.
, every recommendation vote accumulated, pushed this book to this position, and with the editor's approval, Sanjiang got this opportunity.
And this book has lived up to the opportunity given by readers and editors. Among the books recommended by San Jiang last week, "Technician of the Tang Dynasty" has the largest collection growth so far.
After Sanjiang, there was a strong recommendation, which also indicates that this book will be on the shelves.
When I received the forced recommendation of the website, I was not as excited as when I received the Sanjiang website. Because after Sanjiang, it was basically forced to be put on the shelves. I know this rule. But because I am a pessimistic person, one thing
As long as things have two different outcomes, I always feel that I will be the unlucky one. So the anxiety is still there, but it is not that serious.
I have been diving in the history group for so long, and I also know a lot of tidbits of information. For example, the Sanjiang and strong recommendations at the end of the month are very rare. As a new author at level 1, I can get the Sanjiang and strong recommendations at the end of the month, which means that the editor is very
Definitely this book.
I don’t know whether these rumors are true or false, and I can’t ask the editors for confirmation. But whether it is true or not, I am grateful and respectful to my editors. From the second half of last year to now, my life has been
A lot of things happened in it. It felt like I fell into an abyss and thought it was the bottom. Not long after, I fell again. I was like an extreme athlete, constantly trying to see how deep the pit could be. The bottom of the bottom is
Basin, I was sitting in the basin looking at the sky from a well, and it was Huya who gave me a hand. If she hadn’t signed my book, nothing would have happened. At the same time, I also want to thank Xu Xu. Although Xu Xu didn’t speak much, she also gave me
I gave him the necessary guidance and thank you for his help.
Of course, the most grateful thing is all the people who have accompanied me from the beginning to the present. Without your company, I would never have been able to overcome these eighty-one difficulties.
That’s it for my remarks. Let’s work hard together in the days to come!
