Chapter 83: Remarks on the launch
Wow, it’s suddenly time to launch. As a newcomer writing a book, many aspects are not handled very well. Thank you for your understanding and companionship.
Let’s talk about the key points first.
Xigua would like to first of all thank all book friends for their support. Without your company, this book would not be possible today. Here, Xigua also wishes all the handsome guys and beauties in front of the screen a smooth life and all their wishes come true.
1.2 million words will be updated on the day it is released, and it will continue to be updated every day for at least 1 week. In the future, we will intermittently sell tens of thousands per day while ensuring quality, with a minimum guarantee of 6~8k. Mainly because sometimes we need to sort out our thoughts, and continuous daily transfers of tens of thousands are a bit too much...
[The speech of the speed of light has been announced, the following is the author’s remarks before it is released]
——
To be honest, I really didn’t expect that this book would reach this point. Until now, I still have a It's a very unreal feeling. After all, it was a pure accident that I originally wanted to open this book.
When we were in Shui Erquan's book club, Erquan suddenly posted a short essay and suggested that we try online writing. I had nothing to do at the time, and I was in a book shortage, so I had the idea to give it a try, and then I started browsing Tieba to look for information.
At the beginning, the idea of this book was actually beast control + wizard. Wizards are a category that I came into contact with relatively early when I came into contact with online articles, and beast control was my favorite subject during this period. The original idea was actually to take a route similar to that of a druid, sign a contract with some Warcraft, and then gradually upgrade it to become a Western fantasy beast-controlling article.
However, after reading some online teachings and starting to scan the rankings and similar categories, I found that there were simply too many authors with new books on the subject of beast control. Everyone was following the similar route of "cultivator" and "researcher". , I feel like I can’t write anything new.
So I started using my imagination. And when I was looking for inspiration on site b, I suddenly saw the sentence "I am no longer a human being!", and my brain seemed to be kicked.
Beast Control is written with pet beasts as partners, so can I change [Beast Control] into "controlling people" or "controlling partners"? As a result, the idea of this teaching article became clear all of a sudden, and then I just kept writing. I wrote a first draft of nearly 40,000 words in a hurry, and then I excitedly tested the poison on my roommate.
After burying him, I also became autistic.
But I really don’t want to give in. I feel like I wrote quite well.
So, with the thought of "the worst possible outcome would be to get kicked out of the group chat", I sent my first draft directly to Erquan through a private chat in the QQ group.
Hhh... Thinking about it now, I feel that I was super brave at that time.
Thanks to Erquan, he not only helped me look at the subject matter, but also looked at my beginning very carefully, and then made detailed suggestions for modifications. After I revised the draft according to Er Quanju's suggestion, I came up with the beginning of the current draft.
Then came the one-stop process of publishing books and signing contracts.
But I have to admit that as a newbie, I actually didn’t consider it very well in some aspects.
Because the original idea was about beast control, when I first started dealing with some plots, I actually didn’t think too much about it. Instead, I described the interaction between the protagonist and his students according to the writing methods of pet beasts in some beast control stories I had read. . But sometimes, there are some differences between the interaction between people and pets and people... [face covering]
Other minor problems occur from time to time. For a while I was a little autistic and my mind was in a mess. Fortunately, I still persevered. Originally, I was too lazy to look at the data. Instead, I wanted to finish the book and take a look at the overall problems. But sometimes things develop beyond my expectations.
I read in the comments section before that a passing book friend asked why this book could also be sold in Sanjiang.
emmm, actually the newbie Xigua also wants to know.
When my editor [Wu Shu] boss called me Sanjiang, I was totally stupid.
【无书】：Congratulations, Sunday Sanjiang
[Watermelon]: Huh? I?
[Watermelon]: Boss, stop teasing me. Is this wrong?
[Wushu]: Just tell me if you want it
[Wushu]: Beat.gif
hhh... Xigua was so hopeless that night that he didn’t fall asleep, always wondering if he had made a mistake somewhere. .
Here, I would also like to thank the editor of Xigua [Wu Shu]!
A good-looking male editor, strong and patient. Although there are many rebellious people among the author group, and the sixth one is rampant, boss, please believe in my loyalty!
Although I originally invested in Boss, it was because someone on the post forum said that Boss had a higher rejection rate, so I gave up investing in Boss in Jiangcha (cross out this paragraph)
The boss of Wushu is definitely a newcomer-friendly editor. My recommendation was not good before and I wanted to change an introduction. The boss helped me to reply... Oh no, he helped me correct it nearly 20 times. He was never impatient. And no matter how naive the question is, the boss always answers it...
He made me cry.
Always loyal to Lord Wushu! ! !
I also strongly recommend Wushu Boss here. Book friends who want to try writing should go directly to the fourth group to find him. If you encounter any problems while writing a book, don’t be embarrassed, just ask the boss, ask the boss, ask the boss.
If the boss doesn’t reply, add a few more expressions.
As long as you are not embarrassed, the pressure will be on the boss Wushu.
By the way, remember not to mention my name when the time comes. I never care about such nonsense. 【Dog head】
Finally, thank you to all the book friends who have been accompanying me! Thank you for your company, and thank you for your tolerance and support for Xigua! Xigua has nothing to give back to, that is, write well and live up to everyone's trust and support for Xigua.
