A New Year's letter to a book friend
Before you know it, the first month of 2024 is about to pass, and there are 9 days to celebrate the New Year.
This book has been written since May last year, and it has been updated for 9 months now, with 1.7 million words, and the author did not expect that he would write such a long novel one day.
It can only be said that everything is possible, and no one knows how their future will change.
The author has been reading online novels since he was in junior high school, and he is an old bookworm with more than ten years of book experience.
At that time, there were not so many channels for online novels as they are now, and the author clearly remembered that if he wanted to read a book at that time, he had to rent it at a bookstore near the school, with a deposit of 20 yuan, and a copy was rented for one dollar a day.
At that time, I read books such as "Child of Light", "Shenglong Dao", "Bullet Marks", "Ghost Blowing Lantern", etc.
Of course, there is also a "I Am the Archmage" that can be regarded as the author's online novel enlightenment book.
I don't know if I've read this book greatly, to be honest, the content of the book at that time was a great shock to the author's young heart.
Now that I think about it, I can't remember the details, but the general plot is still impressive.
The archmage who ate the infinite magic of sweet potatoes, angels, witches, etc., all kinds of YY, all kinds of cool.
In this way, the author developed the habit of reading online novels, which has been maintained until now.
In the past ten years, the author has read countless online novels, and has also witnessed the rise of various great platinum writers, and I only feel that reading books is a very cool thing, and I never thought that one day I would write books.
Huayuwen is something I only started reading in the past few years, at the beginning there were relatively few books of this type, and it was difficult to find books, but in recent years, there have been more writers, but there are not many that really suit the taste.
At the beginning of this year, the author took a few months off at home due to a job change.
To put it bluntly, I was uncomfortable working in the previous company, and I left, but I haven't found a good home yet.
Every day when there is nothing to do, the time to read books is longer, and the books that can be chased are all chased to the latest chapters, and after falling into a book shortage, one day the author suddenly thinks about writing a book himself.
Just do it when you think of it, and it's okay anyway.
It just so happened that I had been reading various types of Huayu literature during that time, so I opened this book.
The result has been out of control until now.
To be honest, the author is really grateful to those readers when he first started writing the book, just like the Qing Mochou who I thanked in the book friend circle, the author didn't understand anything when he first opened the book, and he was supported by a breath in his heart.
That's it, this [Do as you like] recommended all the way from the urban channel, and was recommended by Sanjiang in the current issue, and then put it on the shelves.
At that time, the author didn't understand the various recommendation mechanisms of the starting point, so he knew how to post the codeword, and I was very grateful to my screenwriter Qinghu for his support all the way, he taught the author a lot of things, so that the author took a lot of detours.
A month after it was put on the shelves, the book got a boutique badge, and until now it has been booked at an average of 4500, and it can also mix with a medium score at the starting point.
I am really grateful to all the people who have supported the author and supported this book along the way.
I can see in the background that every month there are those familiar names who are voting for monthly tickets and voting for recommendations, and I really thank you very much, thank you for your support.
Whenever I see this, the author can feel that what he writes is liked by someone, and he is very happy and proud!
Speaking of which, because the author is a newcomer, when he starts to publish books, the first thing he wakes up every day is to read the comments of book friends, and those who have praise will be very happy, and the next day is very energetic.
I will be sad when I see criticism, and I will be in a bad mood for a while, and it will even affect my writing state.
So I'm very glad that when I started writing the book, I met a group of friendly readers, and it was your encouragement that kept me going.
In this way, there is now 1.7 million words of "do whatever you want".
I have said a lot, I don't know if everyone is willing to listen to the author's nagging......
I smiled......
Next, I would like to talk to you about some of the author's thoughts on writing a book.
Because the author is an old reader, when writing a book, he naturally substitutes the requirements of his own reading into it.
When reading a book before, the author will first ask the things in the book to be as true and reasonable as possible, so that there will be a sense of substitution, at least logically.
Again, the author thinks that if he is the protagonist, what will he do will be cool, and what the protagonist does is not cool if it is not cool.
It's fairly easy to say these two points, and when the reader is the author, he selects the books that can be read according to these two points.
But now that I'm writing my own book, it's too difficult to write based on these two points, and it's very difficult to do one of them.
Now this book [do what you want] can only be said to barely do a little bit, and there are still many shortcomings, but the author's ability is limited.
Having said all this, the author would like to say that online novels used to be a dream that the author started to have when he was a child, and he could only experience all kinds of fantasy stories and lives through the dreams of others.
It's a really nice feeling to have the opportunity to weave such a dream on your own and make your own decisions.
The author will persevere, write out the dream he wants to have in his heart, and present it to every reader who supports me, I hope you can like my dream, and I hope you can be happy and refreshing when you substitute!!
