In a week or two, this book is expected to be on the shelves around 2.1.

I haven’t chatted with you all before, so this time I will tell you about the situation of this book.

Looking back a few months ago, I anxiously handed the first draft of this book to my editor. The editor read it for a long time and then sent me a message in the QQ pop-up window:

What is the psychological expected score?

I hesitated for a moment before typing: Order one thousand. I'll write it down if I order one thousand.

The reason for hesitation is that although the author has just come to Qidian, he is not considered a newcomer.

Outside, there are still some achievements.

However, any outside author who comes to the starting point will inevitably feel uneasy.

In particular, what I write is a relatively [special] and less commercial subject matter in the online article market.

Moreover, it is not the subject of cool articles that I used to write most often.

Me, is it really okay?

I've been asking myself too.

However, I still want to try.

I am already in my thirties. I have written millions of words in books and made a lot of money.

However, until now, I have never written a book that I am truly satisfied with.

I feel like [something] inside me has not been realized yet. I don't want to wait any longer. So I wrote this book.

What I told the editor was, "I'll write it if I order 1,000," but it was actually to give the editor reassurance.

A thousand orders will at least not affect his performance.

But, actually this is what I think in my heart:

Even if no one reads this book, I will still write it shamelessly.

I have already completed the outline of the entire book, which is at least two million words long.

I swore secretly like this, a little childishly. My heart is rock solid.

However, despite this, I am really nervous about my expectations of results.

Even scared.

As a newcomer, can I really achieve results by writing about a non-commercial subject matter?

The editor told me: It should be possible, I think it’s pretty good.

But I could read uncertainty in his tone. Like me, he was a little nervous.

So I said: Should I publish the book now?

He said: No, we will save the manuscript and make sure that there is no problem with what we write later, and then publish it.

So we saved the manuscript for two months and deleted it countless times.

When I wrote books before, I always published them as soon as I wrote them. I have never experienced this battle.

The total manuscript is close to two hundred chapters, and more than one hundred chapters have been deleted. The manuscript of more than 200,000 words was directly scrapped.

Only then did I slowly find my rhythm.

But it's all worth it.

I'm basically satisfied with the current draft.

Of course, I have also heard many readers say that it is slow, slow, and has logical problems in some details.

They are right, I did not handle some plots very well, they were not so natural and smooth.

This is my problem and I know it.

But this is actually an improved manuscript. The original manuscript had much bigger problems.

At the same time, because this book is not a fast-paced novel, in terms of creation, I often have to write some necessary foreshadowing, foreshadowing and information filling. These contents are not so friendly to read and seem a bit watery, but they are actually necessary. , had to write. And because new book issues are updated slowly, these problems are amplified.

I wrote down all these questions.

I will keep improving. I will keep working hard.

I want to be the best within my abilities.

This is something I promise, guarantee, and swear to my readers.

I will also always read your feedback.

However, just like a famous metaphor in the online literature industry:

The author writes more like a bus, with fixed routes, than a taxi company, constantly adjusting its destination according to each reader's destination needs.

The outline of this book has been basically finalized, and I am confident that as an overall story, it will ultimately satisfy everyone.

Appropriate feedback will make our stories better. However, if I incorporate every feedback into the book indiscriminately, then each reader's needs will actually be different and eventually conflict with each other. Some readers will be satisfied, while others will be disappointed, which will ultimately affect the book. Overall readability.

So, my many silent readers, don't worry. I will write the book according to my plan, stick to what I want to express, and strive to present a complete story of several million words.

I would also like to point out something: this book is actually a slow burner.

Being on the new book list is just an unexpected surprise.

I really didn't expect that a newcomer writing a book on such a subject could achieve good results.

I really appreciate the support of our readers, brothers and sisters!

In fact, I am really ready to order a few hundred words for the first time and keep writing millions of words.

So, I'm really scared.

On the one hand, I am very grateful to everyone for supporting this book.

On the one hand, I am also worried that the subsequent plot will not satisfy everyone.

I can only work harder and do my best to repay the support of my brothers and sisters.

Please --\u003e\u003e

Everyone believes that the slow-burning long-term plot that gradually unfolds after hundreds of thousands of words and one million words is what I really want to express. By then it will definitely bring you more exciting plots and deeper emotions!

I hope we can be together until then!

At the same time, the book will be updated at a faster pace after it is put on the shelves. As long as the speed is fast enough, some seemingly superficial plots (although they are necessary for the plot) will not affect reading so much.

Of course, all this is based on ensuring quality.

I don’t think anyone wants to subscribe to a book that was good in the early stage but collapsed in the middle.

What I want to strive to do is to have a beginning and an end, a long-term explosion, and the more I write, the better it looks.

This is what I want to explain to you.

I'm a little nervous, please forgive me for my poor language~

Before it goes on the shelves, I will open a single chapter and talk to you about some issues that everyone is concerned about.

Thanks! !
