200,000 words to say a little bit of testimonials
The novel has been updated with 200,000 words unconsciously, plus the manuscript is almost 400,000 words, and it has been written for more than a month, which was originally regarded as a hobby and a game, but I didn't expect to find that I liked this feeling in the process of writing.
When people reach their thirties, they are considered middle-aged, and looking back on their contact with online novels was still at the beginning of the century, when online novels had just emerged, and the network in my small county was not yet developed, and private computers were out of reach. The first time I saw an online novel, I learned about it from a classmate, a pirated novel he rented at the time. I was very impressed at the time, and what was written on the cover was Huang Yi's work, and the name of the book was "Ethereal Journey".
I borrowed it and looked at it, and oh, why is this novel so good? It's not the same as the original martial arts novel at all. Then I couldn't resist falling in love with it, and I also learned from that classmate, and went to a small bookstore three or four kilometers away from the school to borrow pirated books, and at that time, the rent for renting books was five cents a day, and it was three or four yuan a week.
However, I was a poor student at the time, and my weekly living expenses were only thirty or forty yuan, so I still cherished it, and I always felt that it was too much of a loss to read a book last week, so I began to speed up my reading, and an average of a book of more than one million words took three or four days to finish it.
At the time, I didn't know that this was called an online novel.,I just think the content in it looks very cool.,I often bring myself into the protagonist.,With those with ups and downs.、Excited.,Watching are fascinated.,The whole class knows that there is such a classmate.,Read novels in class every day.。 Of course, there will definitely be no benefit in school, and the grades are average, relying on a fairly good IQ to maintain a midstream level, and hanging up or down.
Later, as I got in touch with more and more of the Internet, I also knew the positioning of online novels, but I still inevitably liked it. In high school, it was popular to buy a night in an Internet café, you could get on the computer at ten o'clock every day, get off the machine at half past six in the morning, play games with friends in the first half of the time, and open the website to read novels in the second half of the time.
When I was in college, I once had the idea of writing online articles, but I didn't put it into practice because of the college's single-minded play, and after graduation, I chose the industry and entered an advertising company, first as a copywriter and then as a planner. The advertising industry is under great competitive pressure, staying up late and working overtime is the norm, you can't say 5+2, white plus black, it's not much worse, so when I was young, my heart to promote words gradually faded, and later I got married and started a family, and I had to work hard for life, and I didn't have time to think about these ideas at the beginning.
2020 is destined to be an extraordinary year, the epidemic came suddenly, and I have been working from home for nearly two months since the Chinese New Year. My daughter was three and a half years old, and while she was working from home, her mother's work was busier than mine, so I took it over, and we discussed what TV to watch, what picture books to watch, and what stories to listen to every day.
Since the birth of my daughter, it is the first time that I have been so close to my daughter, and it is also the first time to spend so much time with her, we have watched a lot of cartoons, both foreign and domestic, Disney animation I both like, as well as Miyazaki's animation, like the animation "My Neighbor Totoro", "Spirited Away", "Castle in the Sky", etc., when I was young, I didn't have time or watched it casually, and now I can understand some things that I didn't understand.
As I get older, my understanding becomes different, and they all say that adults don't have "fantasies", and every time they fantasize, they tell themselves that those things are unrealistic. I have watched many cartoons, which have made my heart feel very "practical", and I am reminded of all kinds of fantasies when I was young, all kinds of wanting to be a hero to brave the rivers and lakes, cultivating immortals to fight the starry sky, how to change my fate through rebirth, etc. When the dusty memory was opened, an impulse surged in my heart, thinking about whether to pick up my online dream again.
But at that time, I just thought about it, because there was still a lot of work, and it was difficult to have free time to manage the team and projects every day, and I soon returned to work and entered the original working state.
Speaking of which, it is also accidental to write this novel now, because the child's mother started her own business and did online work, and her workload has increased several times during the epidemic, and she is completely busy. I also got a little tired of the advertising industry that I had been engaged in for seven or eight years, and I was catching up with the child's mother who couldn't take care of it, so I resigned to take care of the child on the one hand, and on the other hand to help her mother do some work, and also had some free time.
The city I live in is a second-tier city, to say that my income level is not low in the second-tier cities, this decision was quite difficult when I made it at that time, the constant persuasion of the company's leaders and colleagues, plus the persuasion of some friends, the resignation was carried out for two months before it was done.
In this way, in the spare time of the day, I thought about whether to try to write it? I wanted to do it, I started writing with my mobile phone, and the whole idea and outline were only set in two days, and I have to thank the original work experience, at least let me code the word speed is okay, set a standard of 6,000 words for myself every day, and I tried to send it for a few days, but I didn't expect it to be approved, and then I ushered in the editor's invitation to sign a contract.
The back is naturally normal work, accompanying children, and the life of code Braille.,As I write more, I find that I really like it.,Although at present, this book is going to "hit the street", and the data and readers' reactions are average. Well, it's a bit of a brag, it's pretty average.
But today's testimonial is not to ask the eunuch to get rid of, but to talk about my heart without sleep, for the time being, I will continue, because I think this book has made me like it, just take it as a hobby, exercise my writing level, and write a little about my "unrealistic fantasies" in those years, which can be regarded as satisfying the desire of my youth.
Finally, don't let go of the "fantasies" that make you feel happy, after all, these fantasies are precious and should be fragrant with the passage of time, not drifting away with the wind.
Good night everyone!
