I have coded the last chapter of 2020. After being in a daze in front of the computer for a long time, I finally opened this chapter.
2020 passed by so unconsciously.
The epidemic broke out so suddenly at the beginning of the year that no one was mentally prepared. Fortunately, we have a strong motherland. Under the unified control of the country, frontline medical staff risked their lives, and people across the country worked together to stay home and cooperate, and all walks of life played their part. Strength, we finally won the war.
The epidemic has become normal, but I still hope that all book lovers can pay more attention!
The big-faced cat has been a bookworm for more than ten years. When he was studying, he read pirated copies. After working for two or three years, he started to read the original ones (ashamed...).
People's habits will gradually change. They like Qidian's comments and discuss with everyone in the book review area. This is what is called three minutes for text and half an hour for comments.
This year, due to the epidemic, I have read a lot of books, some excellent and some ordinary. The more I read, I always have the illusion that if I write, I will not be so vulgar. These books look very cliché at first glance. routine.
I think maybe not one person has such thoughts, it's normal.
I also felt arrogant and conceited for a while.
I signed up for the Writer's Assistant in July, but I was delayed because I suddenly became busy at work.
As the National Day approached, I finally made up my mind to write the story I had been thinking about for a long time. I didn’t go anywhere during the National Day. I wrote it at home for eight days, updating it every day.
Old book friends may know that "This Question B" was very proud of its setting and name, including the plot.
But as I kept writing, I found that was not the case.
It may only take 3 minutes to read a chapter of 3,000 words, but to code 3,000 words, even if the idea goes smoothly, for a newbie like me, it may take 2 hours, plus modifications, plus proofreading...
Many times what is in my mind cannot be written. I call this the ability of writing restricts the wings of imagination.
Therefore, the ending of "Choose B" also made me feel ashamed. I wrote 400,000 words but failed to sign a contract. There are also many book friends who follow and urge me to update every day. This is my biggest motivation to persist to 400,000 words.
But one day, I was lucky enough to join a big boss’s QQ. The big boss told me a lot. We chatted for more than an hour. The big boss’ words touched me very much: Your current writing style and settings are very important. If you insist on it blindly, you are not responsible for your book friends. You should stop and recharge your batteries so that you can give back more exciting content to your book friends.
I thought about it for two days and stopped updating "Choose B".
During that month, I used my little time after get off work to read the beginnings and writing methods of various great masters every day. I only read a dozen chapters. It was no longer for fun and relaxation, but with a learning mentality.
I also wrote several versions of the beginning and submitted them to the editor for internal submission, but none of them passed.
Every day in the book club, people are concerned and ask how the new books are, and we have been waiting.
I'm really touched. Finally, "Lord of the Sect" has passed the review.
At noon that day when I received the reply from Fo Chen that I could sign the contract, I looked at my phone over and over again.
Soon, it was released on the 21st and the status was reached on the 25th. As of today, it has been exactly 11 days.
There are old friends and new friends.
Pursuing books is very hard. As an old bookworm, I originally "deeply hated" pursuing books. But as the number of words increased little by little, everyone discussed in the group every day and insisted on voting. Some people even started to vote every day for the popularity of the book circle. Keep checking in and giving likes.
"The Lord of the Sect" is like a common child, watching him grow up day by day.
On the day it was released on the 25th, it received tips and support from dozens of book friends. On the 29th, the boss "Fantasy Wind" gave Baiyin directly because of a few jokes from the book club on the 28th.
I am shocked and ashamed. I feel that I am not good enough now.
But the support of book friends is the biggest motivation. Every click, every collection, every comment, every recommendation ticket, and every reward is precious!
In 11 days, as newcomers, our results were really good. We were ranked 4th on the Rising Star list, ranked first in the Xianxia category, and were in the top 50 of the bestseller list (although it was very short-lived), but I am very proud to have such awesome book friends like you. support.
But no matter how good the results are, they will all pass as 2020 comes to an end.
2021 is a new beginning. I will welcome the new year with a better state and confidence. I also hope that book friends can continue to support me and "The Lord of the Sect" so that we can witness his growth together.
Finally, I would also like to thank my lover for your understanding and tolerance for me spending a lot of time coding.
At this moment, at midnight, I wish everyone a Happy New Year!
