As title.
This book will probably be finished next year.
As for the reason, it is just as mentioned in the introduction.
When it was about 200,000 words, I asked the editor: Can it be published?
Answer: Wait a minute, I will try again.
This is a good thing, because after writing 200,000 words, there are not even 3,000 collections. If it can be recommended, it will definitely be good.
So, I waited.
Friday afternoon——
Your work is recommended by the new version of the website - Science Fiction Channel's popular categories. Please be sure to keep your unfinished works updated.
Contact your editor, thank you for your cooperation!
If you want to see it, you need to log in to the PC, select the science fiction category, and then scroll to the bottom. My book is one of the twenty small grids.
It was put on the shelf on March 20th. I wanted to get full attendance in April. There is no threshold. I can get it as long as I put it on the shelf. It will be paid for three months and it will be 1,500 per month. The premise is that the daily update is 4,000. , my hand speed was very slow at that time, and I could write about 600 words in an hour.
Two hundred thousand words free chapter.
4000×90=360000.
If it can be published on April 1st, I can write 560,000 words and receive a manuscript fee of 4,500 yuan.
Unfortunately, the editor didn't agree and said there was a recommendation. It turned out to be a popular recommendation on the website. After one week, it had increased to less than 300 favorites. It would be better not to recommend streaking.
Because it was the first time I proposed to put it on the shelves on March 20th, after seeing what the recommendation was, I thought it would be better to put it on the shelves.
So I went to the editor again on Wednesday and asked, can it be published on April 1st? At that time, there were almost 250,000 words. The editor replied: Wait a little longer and try again.
At that time, a bad thought occurred. I encountered that the card was on the shelf, and I had to write 300,000 words before it could be put on the shelf.
But the editor said this, and I had no choice but to say yes and continue to wait for recommendations.
Friday——
Your work is recommended by the new version of the website - Science Fiction Channel's popular categories. Please be sure to keep your unfinished works updated.
Still it.
In an instant, I understood.
I went to the editor and asked how about pursuing it.
Unfortunately, I didn't get an answer.
I was particularly confused. If there are readers from that period who are still reading this book, they should know that I wanted to cut the book.
Three thousand collections, two hundred and fifty thousand words, if it had been replaced by another author, it would have been cut off long ago.
But I can't bear it.
If I cut it, it would mean that I had written so many words in vain and had nothing, so I went to the editor and got it straight:
Can 300,000 words be put on the shelves? Since the results are not good, let's fight at night.
At that time, I felt that I had understood the editor's hint. If it was put on the shelves on the 1st, I would get full attendance that month. If it was put on the shelves at other times of the month, I would get nothing but a subscription.
The collection is low, and I don’t know the number of real readers. I even think that there are only seven, eight, or at most twenty people reading it.
When a regular reader subscribes, I get five cents.
0.05×20×30=30.
If you don't have perfect attendance, you will have to work hard for more than half a month, and the manuscript fee will be 30 yuan, and you will buy two cups of milk tea, and it will be gone.
The idea at that time was that instead of doing this, it would be better to put it on the shelves on May Day, which can be regarded as a benefit to the few readers.
As I was anxious and afraid of being rejected again, the editor replied: Yes.
Then, I started updating.
At that time, it already had 250,000 words. If I updated it twice a day, it would have 370,000 words on the day it was released.
37+36=71.
There is a threshold for perfect attendance. There is no requirement for the first three months of release, but starting from the fourth month, orders of 500 are required to get a perfect attendance award.
Is it possible to collect 3,000 and order 500 in total?
So, I started updating.
Readers asked why I updated "La Kuai", and I said that it would be published with 300,000 words. I would save more manuscripts and it would explode.
What about reality?
I played King of Kings every day, and at night I was afraid that my "twenty" remaining readers would run away, so I hurriedly spent more than three hours grinding out a chapter.
The reason why I wrote it down at that time was because I wanted to get a subsidy so that my efforts in the past few months would be rewarded to a certain extent, so that I would not be left with nothing.
Secondly, it is for love.
I was already a junior in college at that time, not a freshman. I could generate energy for love. It was time for me to make choices for my own life.
The time has come on May 1st.
I put it on the shelves.
In my acceptance speech, I said that the subscription ratio is seventy to one or one hundred to one. This is my truest opinion.
If an editor doesn't tell you to follow up on the book, it will be stuck on the shelf, and it will be rushed out of the market after only one update for a month, how many first orders can it get?
I dare not make an optimistic estimate.
But the results were incredible.
3400 for the first order, 210 for the first order, and 150 for both orders.
The proportions are not bad.
So why should I be stuck and get the worst recommendation in the new book issue?
However, there was not much imbalance at that time, and I thought that maybe in three months I would have an average of 500 and be eligible for full attendance.
During this period, although I occasionally took leave, I still received all the subsidies, and the average subscription increased to 800.
20,000 collected, 800 ordered.
Looking at the proportions, it still hasn’t collapsed.
Then, three months later, I went to the editor again and asked if I could get a recommendation.
Finally, got a limited time free one.
The collection has increased by 5,000.
All orders came to nine hundred.
During the National Day, smart push (which is automatically recommended by the system, is not a type of recommendation and does not require editing arrangements) was interrupted, which interrupted Qianjun's momentum and began to decline.
It took a lot of effort to reach this day, but when I saw hope, it suddenly disappeared.
I had a lot of negative emotions that needed to be vented at the time, and I complained in the author's comments. As a result, I received many encouraging messages from readers.
From that moment on, I knew that as an author, I should not convey negative emotions to my readers.
So, I began to regulate my emotions alone, telling myself that I didn’t need to care about my grades, and looking forward to a rebound in the average subscription.
Then after the festival, the system became more normal, but not as fierce as before. Little by little, it went from 900 to 950.
The editor takes the initiative to inform and update more frequently.
I am a very transparent person, and when I was suddenly found by an editor, I must be ecstatic and feel that my future is bright.
But the result...
I ordered an average of 1013 at the beginning of the month, and now I have an average of 973. I updated three times in the past few days, and the more I received, the faster they dropped. Three items dropped in one chapter, and nine items dropped in one day, which is 270 in a month.
Two months later, everything is back to where it started. The hard work in 2021 is gone...
Collection negative growth.
High-end orders (the first chapter on the shelves) increased by three or two every day, indicating that no new paying readers came in.
If a lake has no streams flowing into it, what is its final destination?
So, I decided to finish it.
But leave it until after the new year.
Because eunuchs lose character.
I will write for another three months, cut off the copy, use 300,000 words, and give it a hasty ending.
In fact, this book has many shortcomings.
Well... I'm already in such a miserable state, so I won't prick my heart in the end.
Let’s talk about the most representative one.
Not the same.
You can write about any subject, but you cannot write them all well. At the same time, it will bring a sense of fragmentation to the plot and lead to the collapse of the power system.
So...that's all.
I started the book almost a year ago and have written 1.2 million words. This is not considered diligent, but for a part-time party member, I am still quite proud.
Um.
After two thousand words, let’s get back to the topic.
Regarding the final direction of this book——
Next month’s copy will be an extension of the first copy of this book, “Death in the Twist.” This has been decided a long time ago and will not change.
Echoing the beginning and ending, summarizing the full text, sublimating the main theme...
Ahem, just kidding.
I had to finish writing the final copy, but I had promised to change the story about the Three Kingdoms. Some readers didn’t like it and kept urging me to read it, so I finished it in a hurry, and the feedback...
So, let’s write about the Three Kingdoms in the final copy.
Finally, use 40,000 to 50,000 words to explain the various lines of the school.
I'll finish it within my ability.
Well... I typed these more than one million words one by one. If given a choice, who would kill his own child?
I originally wanted to keep it a secret so that I could get more subscriptions, but today when piracy is rampant, if you can support the genuine version, you should gain respect and have the right to know, so I will inform you in advance.
Stop giving big rewards~
Just support subscription.
I often say this in the group, and I really mean it.
The first ally in this book, well, I only added one update for him. He really has no reputation, but he has made an appointment to meet offline next year (I live in a city next to him), and I will treat him to dinner, so I feel guilty. Not too serious.
But the other alliance leader... and several people with ten thousand rewards rushed to the street and added more, but they still said sorry.
at last……
The new book has a general direction. This book summarizes a lot of experience and has gone through too many ups and downs. It has been polished slowly, and I am really afraid of rushing out.
But until this book is officially finished, the new book won’t take up much time and won’t be released until it’s finished first.
