This is my second time writing my closing remarks.
Friends who have followed the first book should know that when I wrote the first book and put it on the shelves, I happened to be trapped at home due to the epidemic and lost my job.
At that time, I originally planned to give up writing because my grades were too poor.
But at that time, Peng Lai, the new editor, suddenly asked me if I had any plans to write a new book.
To be honest, I was quite surprised. Considering the success of my first book, there was actually an editor who remembered me. I was quite touched.
So I decided to give myself a chance and write another book.
Then, the results of this book were far beyond my expectations, and it gave me the foundation to make a living from writing. I am really lucky that I did not choose to give up at that time.
Back to the topic, I am not satisfied with this book. There are too many shortcomings and shortcomings.
First of all, there is the issue of the outline. I started the book in a hurry and did not make a good outline, which led to many revisions in the middle period. Many friends felt that the plot suddenly sped up when they read the Tokyo Incident volume. That is because the outlines before and after were inconsistent, and many plots were cut off.
The modification of the outline caused problems with the continuity and rhythm of the plot. This is also the main reason why the book began to fall apart in the middle and late stages and ended hastily.
Then there is the issue of roles. There are too many female characters.
Originally, I planned to write only two or three main female characters, but I couldn't control my hand and ended up writing more and more.
The more female characters the better in a harem novel, because there is not enough space to develop the characters. In addition, I revised the outline and cut off many unnecessary branches. I also cut off many independent chapters of the female characters.
This resulted in the female characters appearing in the middle and later stages being very thin, and some were thrown aside just after they were half-formed.
Many people criticized Kanzaki Rin, the heroine, for turning into a pure tool in the later period because many of her plots were lost or transferred to other characters.
Then there is the plot issue. According to the original outline, it is intended to focus on the immortal protagonist being misunderstood as a vampire, which triggers a series of comedic effects and conflicts.
In the end, it was written that I still turned to the routine of practicing and upgrading. This was also the reason for the outline being revised many times.
Finally, there is the question about the protagonist himself.
Fang Cheng was too venomous at first, which offended many people. Later I reduced his venomous tongue, but this person suddenly lost his characteristics and charm.
Also, his cheat set is not very good. At first, his ability to absorb enemies seemed pretty good, but in the later stage, he absorbed too many abilities, which resulted in many abilities just sitting there and gathering dust, completely losing the sense of expectation.
Having written so many shortcomings is not to say that this book is without merit, but I want to tell everyone that I have realized some of the problems and shortcomings encountered in the writing process, and will strive to improve and do better in the next book.
I'm already preparing a new book, but I have to rest for a while first, so I can't start the book immediately because the lumbar muscle strain and tenosynovitis caused by sitting for a long time are a bit serious, and I need some fitness training.
I will try to publish a new book within two months, and I hope everyone will continue to support me.
Thank you to those who followed all the way to the end, thank you for your support!
Thanks! Goodbye! (*^▽^*)
