This is my second book, well, of course, I'm not advertising my old book.
I want to say that when I wrote the first book, I left some regrets and learned some things that I didn’t know before.
When the first book was first released, something happened that I still remember freshly. That was when I made a speech and said that I would not fight for the monthly ticket.
The reason why I can’t argue is that I probably won’t be able to argue, and I don’t want to argue because I’m actually quite lazy when it comes to many things. Furthermore, in my opinion at the time, if everyone could subscribe and support, it was already a great compliment.
, as for other monthly passes, just feel free to do so.
So I said I won’t argue, and everyone can vote for other books that are needed.
I think this is a "good intention".
But what I didn't expect was that I really didn't expect it! I was criticized.
A book friend expressed his dissatisfaction and rebuke in the book review section in a very strong and exciting tone, and many book friends later echoed his opinion.
These people are all subscription supporters and have voted for me monthly before or since.
I won’t go into details here. Anyway, I have understood one thing since then, and that is online serialization. As an author, you don’t just need to write books quietly. There are many book friends and it is not expected.
Just read quietly and read.
Some book lovers sometimes hope to further interact with the books they read and like.
The performance of old books can only be said to be average. Although they are high-quality products and the high-end orders have already exceeded 10,000 yuan, there are really countless such books at the starting point, and the time of my book spans several years.
In one sentence, even a pig should have become a sperm after such a long time.
However, from beginning to end, many people have been recommending this book in many places out of love. Until now, some people still recommend it from time to time, and many of them directly recommend it to their friends.
While I feel these things, I feel deeply ashamed.
I'm really ashamed.
As for the reason for feeling ashamed, all of my old book friends 100% know it, so I won’t go into it here. :)
But many of them still support them, subscribing, giving rewards, recommending tickets, and monthly tickets. I sometimes thank you occasionally in the book, but most of the time I can't thank you enough. - There is not so much space, so let me express my thanks.
All the book friends are listed and thanked one by one.
This is one of my regrets.
So when it came to the new book "The Omniscient and Almighty", I made a small attempt, that is, after the end of each chapter, I would like to thank a book friend by name. Before entering v, I would like to express my gratitude for the recommendation vote.
After v, it became two types of thanks: recommendation votes and monthly votes.
This can be considered an interaction that is not interactive.
I always hope that if this continues, as time goes by, I can always thank all the supporting book friends one by one. But it is difficult.
Just like this month, the monthly votes are not many, but they are over a thousand. How many book friends do I thank? Counting two people a day, it is sixty! Of course, many book friends voted for more than one monthly vote
, I also voted for the monthly vote more than once, but no matter what, only a very small part of them were thanked by my name.
This is true for monthly tickets, and even more so for recommended tickets.
So what should I do? Is there any way I can express my gratitude?
The answer is yes.
When I was reading the old book, I said that every time the number of recommendation votes exceeded 100,000, there would be ten updates, um, ten additional chapters. (It hasn’t been fulfilled yet, mainly because I owed too much and had nothing to repay. I can only pay it back later.
I slowly think of a solution, and I always find a solution, because there is a second part of that book!)
For a new book, I will be debt-free for the time being. Well, there is only a small debt, which is not worth mentioning compared to what I owe for the old book. I'll make this rule:
If the number of recommendation votes exceeds 100,000, ten additional chapters will be added. (The update will be the same for every 100,000 stacked.)
This is a recommended ticket. As for the monthly ticket, I have been hesitant.
The main thing is that if you want to add more updates, the number will be too much, and this is simply a nightmare for me.
In fact, whether it is a recommendation vote or a monthly pass, for a niche book like mine, well, it can basically be said that niche books are not of much use. So whether it is more or less, frankly speaking, it doesn’t matter.
When I wrote about the song "Zhuo Zhuo Qihua" in the previous chapter, I quoted a poem, "Peach seeds and dew seeds in the sky, red apricots planted against the clouds by the sun." But in fact, there are two more lines in this poem, "
The hibiscus is born on the Qiu River and does not complain to the east wind."
The hibiscus was born on the Qiu River, and will not complain to the east wind!
This is my positioning of this book. It cannot be read by too many readers. The content determines the audience. What I write is destined to be liked by only a small number of readers. This is what I said before I started the book.
Very clear and understandable.
It can also be said that this is self-selection.
Under such circumstances, why should I "ask for trouble" and put additional burdens on myself?
There is only one reason. I want to make up for the regrets I had when I wrote my first book. I don’t want this book to have regrets as well. If you support me, I will definitely give you feedback.
And the best feedback is to add updates.
In addition to the normal updates, I have some small surprises for you.
If one hundred monthly tickets were added to the update, the number of chapters I should have updated this past month was 11. (Rounding, well, there is no rounding, only rounding.) But for me, this is really
It is too much, and it is not ruled out that there may be more in the future.
So after much thought, I still can't make up my mind.
Therefore, I ask you to help me make this decision. - I will open a post in the book review area, "Whether to activate the monthly ticket for additional updates?" If there are more than a thousand replies, then more updates will be added, because it is difficult to go against the consensus. And if
There are not so many replies, which means that everyone doesn't care, or they are very considerate of me.
So I will consider it, for example, if I have spare capacity, I will update three or two chapters every month. Believe me, even three or two chapters is not enough for me.
easy.
Because when I wrote it, there was no other book that I could use as a reference.
No matter where I write, whether it is a hundred chapters or a thousand chapters, you will never know what I will write in the next chapter! Where will the protagonist develop and what will he encounter?
Because even I don’t know this!
Every night, only when I sit down in front of the computer with my hands on the keyboard, will the subsequent plot follow a "basically reasonable" track and unfold in my mind, and then enter your mind.
vision.
It can also be said that in every chapter, I walked slowly and hard through the thorns.
There is no ready road, let me go.
Some book friends may not be very clear about this point, but some book friends should understand it after hearing what I say before or after.
That’s it, please reply in the book review area.
Your reply will determine whether I will add or not add updates to the monthly ticket item in the future. - From my point of view, it is actually self-contradictory. I want to add more, but I don’t want to add more, and I want to give more.
It surprises you, but I don’t want to make myself too tired.
Forgive my confession. :)
Okay, that's it.
Also, in the future, if you are not a book lover who likes this book very much, please do not vote for this book with your monthly votes.
That way, if I need to add more updates, I'll be more relaxed.
The routine end-of-chapter thank yous will also be more targeted.
This time it's really all said and done.
Finally, Happy New Year to everyone! I wish you good health, family harmony, academic progress, and a fruitful career in the new year!
