My first book came to an end just like that.
When I typed the last word, I felt relieved, but also a sense of loss.
This book took 190 days to write, a little over half a year, and has 870,000 words, just short of 880,000.
The total number of subscriptions is currently 180,000, with an average subscription of 683.
In the vast library of Qidian, this achievement is actually insignificant.
But for a newcomer's first book, it is already a satisfactory answer.
Next, let’s summarize the advantages and disadvantages of the entire book.
1. Overall structure.
For a long online novel, it is inevitable that it will collapse in the later stages, with unbalanced combat power, water injection, and too many side quests. But to be shameless, mine did not collapse that badly. The camera always focused on the protagonist, and there were basically no other side quests.
Of course this is both an advantage and a disadvantage.
The disadvantage is that the plot is not full enough, the contradictions are not prominent enough, and it is completely self-congratulatory and YY.
This is a common problem among newcomers, who lack control over complex plots. They have an outline in mind when they start writing, but they cannot put it into words.
2. Role.
Throughout the whole story, the character I am most satisfied with is Xiao Meng, and that is Xiao Meng in the early stage.
Of course, this is also the main reason for the decline in subscriptions in the later period.
The emotional line is flawed, I will definitely stick to it in the next book, with only one female lead or no female lead at all.
3. Plot.
As an entertainment article, the main plot of this book has experienced three fluctuations.
At first I wanted to imitate mainstream entertainment articles and write plagiarized articles, but I found that it was not ideal. Of course, the biggest reason was that my writing was not good enough.
Later I wanted to write original works, so I wrote two. The subscriptions increased rapidly, and many people commented that the original works lacked immersion, which made me very upset.
Later, I focused on my career path and company development, and my achievements exploded again.
Makes me feel like a complete idiot.
Oh, in the next book, stick to your own route and stick to it until death.
…
I didn't make much from the royalties from this book, averaging less than 1,500 yuan per month.
However, it really made me gain a lot.
When I wrote this book, I was at my lowest point in life.
The first is that his business venture failed and he was heavily in debt. (This is the protagonist's identity setting at the beginning, and it is also a point that many readers criticized.)
The second thing is that the girl I thought I would marry cheated on her. The funny thing is that she was a silly girl. She cheated on me the first day and I found out the next day.
Oh.
Life really is more exciting than fiction.
During that period, I couldn't sleep all night long, and taking melatonin didn't work. The psychological examination showed that I had moderate depression.
The world is dark and the future is bleak.
It’s no exaggeration to say that I really wanted to die at that time.
However, with the help of my parents and many friends, I managed to get through it.
What can I say?
——Things that don’t kill you will only make you stronger.
——There is only one true courage in the world, which is to recognize the truth of life and still love it.
For me, the process of writing this novel is more like a process of self-healing.
Every night I sit in front of the computer and type away, and as I write, my heart becomes quiet.
The joy of creating a world will make the brain secrete dopamine, which is much happier than playing games or falling in love.
There are several passages in this book that made me cry.
But most of the time, it's just for fun.
You see, life is so hard, so you should be happier.
I have uploaded 15,000 words of my next book and have also successfully signed the contract.
The main theme is - [happiness].
The subject matter is still entertainment.
However, having learned from the lessons of the previous book, I will not plagiarize, and the scale of the book will not be so grand, but will tend to be more everyday and funny.
Write jokes, talk shows, comedies, crosstalk, sketches...
I am a huge fan of Deyun Club.
Taoer, Aunt Yu, Xiao Yueyue, Fatty Shaobing, and Zang Helun, there are so many memes that can be written here.
I was an avid fan of talk shows.
George Carlin and Pete Lee from abroad, and Li Dan, Chi Zi, Wang Jianguo and Cam from China, have helped me get through many sleepless nights, and I can even memorize entire paragraphs of many sentences.
As well as sketches, Errenzhuan, stage comedies, comedy movies... and so on.
There is so much to write about.
I want to write a happy story, and try to have a funny moment in every chapter.
I hope everyone can go and take a look and support us.
The title of the book is "The No. 1 Joke Teller in the Entertainment Industry".
