γTalk about your feelingsγ
How to say it, there are many mixed emotions.
I've put so much effort into this book, much more than the first one.
In the first book, my requirement for myself was to "practice writing", and I could not think about anything else.
In the second book, I will have additional requirements, such as "earnings".
Unfortunately, I tried to avoid some of the mistakes I made in the previous book, and I didn't expect to make some other mistakes.
For example, the much-criticized pace ahead.
I thought about it, and it was indeed my problem.
The background of the world I conceived is too large, with different powers and different souls forming different systems.
Such a setting, of course, has its advantages.
In fact, the vast majority of readers passing by will give a "interesting" evaluation.
Including myself, if I didn't particularly like this premise, and at the same time be able to break through the impression left by the conventional beast stream, I wouldn't have chosen such an architecture at all.
When I first conceived it, I thought about some of the things that were difficult to write about this setting.
For example, because authority dominates the choice of the soul, it takes pen and ink to introduce different powers in any case, so as to highlight the richness of the world.
But as a novel of the royal beast, the importance of pet beasts should occupy an absolute majority.
Writing about the authority and diverting the pen and ink means to some extent that it deviates from the topic.
This is a disadvantage.
A big pit.
Even if I think of ways to improve it, to tie the authority to the soul as much as possible.
In this theme, this is still a drawback, and if you are not careful, you may reverse the priority.
I need to keep a balance.
But I clearly didn't do a good enough job to overpower this drawback as expected, and let it appear in the all-important new book issue.
This will lead to an increase in redundant parts, a slow progress in the plot, and a part of the readers who were originally interested in the setting will be disengaged.
To use a more layman's word, the setting may be a good setting and can make people shine.
But as an author, I don't have enough matching ability to control it steadily.
I've been thinking about this for a long time, and then I think that maybe there is a considerable part of the reason, and it can be attributed to the "wrong choice".
Maybe let the protagonist start with a different identity, for example, grasp a certain identity with less information, and then explore the world step by step, understand a little bit, grow a little bit, maybe the fluency of the plot will be improved, and it will be easy for more people to accept.
But I chose the "son of the great clan", and then I felt that this fire was not strong enough, and added a "mentor path".
In this way, there is more suspense, and there are many, many plots waiting to be described, and the future is promising.
However, correspondingly, the difficulty of writing doubles and doubles on the basis of the already difficult one.
Hell mode.
And it's eighteen-layer purgatory.
It seems that I'm really good at digging holes for myself.
I thought that after seriously writing a pet beast master, 3 million words of experience from the early stage to the middle and then to the late stage, how could the second book be more comfortable.
But now, like a fish struggling in the shallows, looking in the direction of the sea, flicking my tail again and again.
I must admit that something went wrong with my mentality.
As of the shelves, the book has a collection of less than 14,000, which is significantly lower than I expected.
It can be expected that the number of the first order may be higher than the previous one, but not much.

γEmphasis addedγ
I'm just saying this to admit that I'm not in good shape, and I don't have any intention of giving up.
Beginning with this book, I have known my readers, and don't jump to conclusions, I don't seem to be very reliable.
At the very least, the existing blows are far from sufficient.
In the last book, from the new signing to the completion of 3 million words, from the first order of 400 to the average set of 1860, I have not been interrupted for 717 consecutive days, and the code word has been continuous for two years, rain or shine.
And Bai Wuxian, who was born in the Daqian Dynasty, also started from a cloth cloth, famous for the mountains and seas, and famous for the Great Qian.
No. 1 in the Ten Masterpieces - Gourmet!
Ancestral Dragon Court - Sequence Holy Son!
The Holy Court β the Great Pope!
Finally, the testimony of the gods and kings of all ethnic groups, and the testimony of the twelve town guards, he is the White Emperor, the White Emperor who reigns over the world! The White Emperor who suppressed the evil head!
Milky Way, Azhou, Xiaoci, Senlu, Cangjiang, Tatsuno, Xing, Garuda, Rat Pupil, Long Live ......
When these names come to mind, are they alive and alive?
In the same way, flower candles and melons, this is just the beginning.
Isn't it just boiling little by little?
Those nights of hard contemplation will always have the moon with me.
Besides, what you expected is disappointed, and then you get your mind right.
It seems that such a process can also be called nirvana, called remodeling?
- No matter.
There is no need for any encouragement or comfort.
I didn't mean to sell badly.
(Isn't this a listing testimonial?) How can you be a backbone? οΌ
There is a group of readers who meet me because of the lord of the pet beast, and then recognize me and like me.
Whether it's overtly or secretly, they're still supporting me, and I know that.
So, adjust your mindset just to go further.
What I want to pursue is the degree of completion from a macro perspective of the whole work, including benefits, including positive and negative evaluations, including the difficulties and obstacles encountered on this road, and a series of reflections...... These are my takeaways and a part of my life.
"The Ascension of the Soul", just 210,000 words.
The story of Ye Hanjun has just begun.

PS: I have no choice but to add that there were about 40 chapters before the book opened, and a month passed, and it was almost empty.
Especially after the fourth update on the shelves, there are only two or three chapters left in the manuscript, and it will soon return to the days of the current code.
In this way, the average person who loses one chapter a day is not able to complete the 6,000-word workload in any day.
In fact, writing this book, it is a bit reluctant to even write 1,000 words an hour, and I still need a lot of time every day to supplement the outline and carve out the outline.
What the reader sees may be a power and a soul, but behind the scenes, I even need to think about whether this combination is reasonable, whether there are obvious loopholes, and how and how much important foreshadowing is paved...... In addition, I said digging a pit by yourself, the protagonist has authority and contract beasts, and takes the road of coaching to accept apprentices, and the apprentices also have to share some pen and ink...... Everything was more difficult than I could have imagined, and it was really slow to write.
Sometimes, in order to ensure the stability of my mentality, I have to participate in social interaction every once in a while, otherwise the backlog of pressure will affect the state of my writing - which will also take up some time.
6000 per day, gritting your teeth and trying to insist on it at this stage.
But at a certain point in time and plot, I found that it was easy to have problems when I wrote quickly, and I had to slow down and think more.
Or, because I put too much effort into writing, I was too stressed and affected my mental balance again.
For these reasons, I adjust the number of words updated to ensure a longer period of stable creation.
The lower limit is 4,000 words, and generally fluctuates in the range of 4,000, 5,000, and 6,000 words.
No illness, no special accidents, no leave of absence because I don't want to break the shift.

I don't have the ability to hope to get a first order, I also liked white prostitution when I was a student, and I can understand it.
At last.
Take a bow.
