After a night's rest, I feel better and no longer dizzy.
Today is the last day of the holiday. First of all, I wish everyone a happy May Day.
Because I took leave yesterday, I felt a little guilty, so I wanted to write more today, so I declined my girlfriend’s date and stayed at home typing.
But sitting in front of the computer, I couldn't write for a while and didn't know how to start.
While I'm thinking about it, let me first write a summary of the month it has been on the shelves.
I also want to talk about my own feelings, just as a brag to everyone, or as a side story for the author.
This book was put on the shelves on March 31st. The first order was 400, and the second order was 320. It didn’t even qualify for perfect attendance.
As for website recommendations, that’s something that doesn’t exist at all.
The royalties for last month, April, came out today, and they were more than 1,500 yuan.
As of May 3rd, the results of this book are a little better, and the average order is 500. I should have perfect attendance in May, and there will be an extra 1,000 yuan.
But when I saw other authors in the group earning over ten thousand or hundreds of thousands a month, I became jealous.
To be honest, when it first came on the shelves, I originally wanted to run away.
It’s okay not to write this crappy book.
But with the encouragement of book friends in the group, especially some old faces, I decided to keep writing.
Am I a sentimental person or a nostalgic person?
Sometimes it is often people and things that keep me going.
Although the royalties are also very important to me, my ability is limited to this, and I can’t blame others. Who told me that I can’t write those cool articles and can only write such niche pure love.
Someone told me not to write about pure love. There is no way out and I can’t make money.
But I don’t know how to write novels. I can only write well if I write about things that are related to myself and what I have experienced.
Having said that, I will tell you why I wrote pure love campus dog food articles when I first started to get involved in online writing.
Because in fact, this is because I am not happy with my relationship, it’s just with YY.
Like the protagonist in the book, I have a girl I like, and she also likes me.
But she is quite good and her family is in good condition, while I am just a person with nothing.
With the support of my parents, I bought a small house in a small county town and paid the down payment. I worked every month to pay off the mortgage, which was very stressful.
This is also my original intention of secretly writing novels part-time.
I want to change my life against fate, earn more money, save more money, and make my life easier.
I want to be able to pay for it with confidence every time I go out on a date, instead of spending the other person’s money every time.
I also want to meet her parents, who is neither humble nor arrogant, and who can afford the gift money, so that her parents can look up to her and think their daughter has good taste.
Of course, I even imagined that after I finished writing the novel, had excellent works, and qualified to join our city’s Writers Association, I would go to the girl I liked and tell her about it.
I want to make her proud.
"Look, your boyfriend is a writer now."
Imagination is beautiful, reality is cruel.
The untalented self did not become a blockbuster, but was lost among thousands of troops and became one of the low-level street writers.
The monthly royalties have not changed my life, but have taken up all my few rest and entertainment time.
Because coding is slow, I write 4,000 words every day for about five hours, which is basically early in the morning. This is why I don’t update until after 12 o’clock every day.
The daily fee is 50 yuan.
So I calculated it every hour, which is 10 yuan.
Excluding the electricity bill, internet bill, and air conditioning bill, I suddenly felt like I was still losing money.
But a big boss said to me, who doesn’t pounce all the way after being discouraged?
Now think of yourself as investing your time, and one day you will have an epiphany, find your own path, and get better.
I also believe that I will get better and sooner or later I will be able to earn over 10,000 yuan a month.
There is always something to look forward to in life in order to persevere, don’t you think?
So far, I have never told my girlfriend about my novel writing.
It's not because of my pride, it's because I want to wait until one day, when I really get over it, and then I'll be in bed with her and talk about our true love over wine.
Let her listen to the sad story of her own struggle for love, which is something that feels super romantic just thinking about it.
Maybe she would be moved to unlock new skills for me.
Of course, if you don't get over it, forget it and just pretend it never happened.
I can't say these things in my heart in reality.
But precisely because it is online, I can speak freely without any scruples.
Because no one knows each other, there will be no embarrassment or social awkwardness.
Having said this, I feel much more comfortable.
Writing novels is all about making money to survive, it is not a noble thing, and any talk about generating electricity for love is nonsense.
So to the book friends who see this, if you are a legitimate reader, thank you for your support, and thank you for your love. Because of your support, I can earn a small income.
If you are a pirated reader, it doesn't matter. Thank you for your like and support, although I don't know.
But I want to say that if your finances allow, I hope you can come to the official support and subscribe to make my grades better, so that my books can be recommended and hopefully be seen by more people.
This is an era of traffic. Without traffic, there is no chance to rise.
I think because of your support, I can turn my hobby into a skill in my life, and I can continue to write stories that I like and stories that everyone likes.
Finally: By the way, the update will be at 12 o'clock tonight, the time remains unchanged...
Note: Attached is a photo of my girlfriend as an easter egg.
