It was officially put on the shelves on April 1st. I didn’t expect that the day it would be put on the shelves would come. On the same day, it would be promoted on the homepage. I was really flattered.
Lao Zhu, I like reading and writing books. It has been a long-cherished wish to write a book that I like to read. To be honest, when I wrote the first chapter of this book, I did not expect it to be put online;
I thought I could sign the contract; after signing the contract, I didn’t expect it to be put on the shelves and promoted. Now many people unexpectedly gathered together, so I don’t know what reaction to make is more appropriate.
To be honest, Lao Zhu has been reading books online for many years, and the total money he has spent does not exceed a pack of Furong Wang. He is really ashamed. On the one hand, rampant piracy websites bring convenience to free reading, and on the other hand, he feels that
Those YY books are not worth the blood to subscribe to. I remember that the first book I paid for was "The Romance of Dragon and Snake". I didn't just follow the plot, I immediately knew who won and who lost in the duel between strong men.
What should a book worth spending money look like? A refreshing reading experience, suspense one after another, a plot with twists and turns, plus a pitiful author who is waiting for rice to be eaten. Lao Zhu knows his strengths and weaknesses very well and enters the scene.
Lao Zhu's characteristic is the post-cut-shot type of substitute description, but the slow plot advancement and large background settings will slow down the pace of the novel. In the final analysis, this "Throne of the Starry Sky" (to be honest, "The Betrayer" is more suitable for me)
Taste) has always been an outlier that does not meet the basic characteristics of online novels from the beginning. Every time Lao Zhu writes a paragraph, he will be anxiously worried that readers will dislike it. It is wordy, complicated, and there is no killing monsters, upgrading, beautiful women in pregnancy, shining and invincible in the world.
The feeling of pleasure.
Is a book like "Throne of the Starry Sky" worth spending money on? From Lao Zhu's own point of view, for a few cents per thousand words, what you buy is not a large piece of obscene fragments that you will forget once you read it, but a little worth it.
Use your brain to think, invest a little emotion to love and hate, and spend a little time to recall the words. It is the tacit understanding that the author is sitting on the computer and thinking hard, and the reader is sitting on the computer and smiling knowingly. It is this impetuous
In the world of online novels, it is a small measure of self-respect to keep one's literary literacy intact.
Everyone knows that Lao Zhu is writing two books at the same time. The funny one called "The Hilarious Zombie King of the End of the World" is used to write about the spirit of rest. If he works hard and only writes "Zombie", he will produce nearly two books in one day.
There is no problem with 10,000 words, and Lao Zhu can also join the ranks of masters with an annual output of 5 million. But for "Throne of the Starry Sky", from conception to completing background information to arranging foreshadowing to introducing character clues, writing 6,000 words in one day is enough.
I am almost exhausted, my hands are not tired, and my heart is tired. Lao Zhu is not a perfectionist, but he strives to be rigorous and true. If a plot cannot even convince himself, why should he use it to convince readers? Compared with Xiaobai's novel
Every mistake is corrected with a bunch of explanatory text. Lao Zhu likes to foreshadow things from the beginning, so now there are so many foreshadowings that he feels dizzy. Writing a book is like pulling threads out of a mess.
I write with great energy, and when I can’t figure it out, I just stare at the screen in a daze. In my daughter-in-law’s words, “I can even write a book about constipation.”
Wow. I have written so much again without realizing it. Those who have the patience to read the last paragraph are the most real readers, those who truly love words, and like-minded friends. Thank you to the country, the party, the editor, my wife and brothers,
I am especially grateful to all the readers who support me. I also hope that everyone will spend a pack of cigarettes for a work that I really like, smoke a pack less, and support a high-quality but low-yield author. Your support is of great benefit to me.
For Zhu Lai, it is more important than anything else.
