A New Year’s letter to book friends

It’s 2023.

Time flies, and before I know it, I am 18 years old, and I wish my readers will always be 18 years old.

Growing up is actually a very painful thing. In the past year, I have experienced the death of elders, physical wear and tear, and the marriage of my friends...

After marriage, a man can no longer play games with you, go out for fun, climb trees to dig out bird eggs and dive into the water to catch crabs, because there is an additional barrier called women between you.

Gradually, there are fewer and fewer friends around to play with.

I think everyone is the same. If you have any, let's feel melancholy together.

Looking back on last year’s experience, it was still very fulfilling. I was imprisoned in front of the computer typing words every day due to the urging of readers. I also recalled the pain of being stuck in writing when I was writing Da Feng, and the shame of not being able to click on the opening chapter (updated crotch pull) ).

After a slow climb over the past year, Dafeng finally reached 200,000.

The number of listeners in Himalaya reached a terrifying 4.2 billion, less than a year, 4.2 billion. I asked the audio anchor about it, and it is said that this is the highest figure in the history of Ximalaya Audio, just like Dafeng's average subscription on the main website.

People who don’t pay attention may not know it well. Da Feng’s popularity index is very scary.

Next, I’m looking forward to anime and movies.

In the past year, Lingjing has opened a book and has ordered 189,000 books so far. It should reach 200,000 during the serialization period.

When I wrote this book, I actually felt a little unsure because I had never written about this kind of subject.

Now that I have finished half of Spiritual Realm, the results have been settled. For an author, one book is a life, especially for authors who like to change themes.

After all, the author is not a god. The subject matter that he is not good at will have more writing power than the new author, that's all.

Readers are the most loyal and the most unfeeling. They are loyal to books and unfeeling to people. If the writing is not good, no one will read it. If the writing is good, some people will read it. It is pure and simple.

No one will subscribe to it because your last book was good and this one turned out to be rubbish (a small number of readers will). I remember that when I opened the book, I asked the editor expectantly. The spiritual realm coincides with the readers of Dafeng. What is the rate?

I got a very disappointing answer: less than 20%.

Therefore, the achievement of Spiritual Realm shows that it still has some merits. This is the greatest joy for me to experience a new theme.

At the end of the year, I was exposed to the sun, and then I caught a cold, and then I was exposed to the sun again (probably not completely healed).

After returning to Yang, my sense of taste and smell disappeared, and I suffered from severe brain fog. To this day, it is still difficult to think of the plot, and it is also difficult to formulate words. Sometimes I cannot write a complete sentence.

Please don’t complain, at least I had erections twice, but I didn’t stop updating for a day.

I was actually suffering huge pressure and pain silently, but I didn’t say it...

Now my sense of taste and smell have returned, but the brain fog is still there, and my sense of smell and taste are less sensitive and worse than before.

Appears to be permanently damaged.

I don’t want to experience COVID-19 again in my lifetime. For this group of authors, COVID-19 will really hit their careers hard.

But letting go also has the advantage of letting go - everyone's life can get back on track, and there is no need to stay at home every day.

I sincerely hope that everyone’s lives can get back on track and be prosperous in the new year.

Time will erase all wounds.

Love you guys!
