It’s been two months since Guimi was uploaded, and it’s time to put it on the shelves.
In the past two months, I hardly wrote any testimonials or chatted with you all, mainly because I increasingly feel that the best communication between authors and readers can only be in the stories I wrote. What I want to express and what I want to tell are all in the stories I wrote, and there is no need to say anything extra.
Well, back to the book Lord of Mysteries, my idea was to rediscover the kind of fun that I had when I first came into contact with the Internet, the kind of fun that made me feel “Oh, there is such a world” and “There is such a magical world”.
At that time, every book brought me a different, strange and interesting world, which always broadened my horizons, made me addicted and unable to extricate myself, and always expanded my imagination. Of course, this was also because I had come across very few similar books before.
So, when I felt that I was ready and prepared in all aspects to independently construct a relatively new world and an interesting and novel system, I started this book with trepidation but courage.
22 paths centered on "role playing", 220 kinds of potions, and 220 different "professions" - this is the part that I most hope will interest everyone. In addition, there is a world that is a mixture of Cthulhu style, sp Foundation elements, the style of the First Industrial Revolution, and steampunk sentiment.
I have read many books and made many settings, but I know that what I need most is to tell the story well, neither hurriedly nor slowly. This is why I slowed down the pace of the first part and updated 410,000 words of free chapters. I want to go through the plot honestly, outline the characters, and depict the world without pursuing the so-called **. I want to present the pictures that I want to share with you in my heart.
Thanks to the writing of Master of Martial Arts, I have been able to develop an appealing level in my daily stories, and have the ability and writing skills to tell honest stories.
In the past I learned to express myself, or I would say that every writer and author can express themselves instinctively, but now I feel that I have begun to learn to restrain myself. Often, I will narrate without commenting, and only use actions, language and expressions to present emotions, without having an inner monologue, or even without actions, language and expressions, and just describe it coldly, like the chapter about the white lead worker. This is also the level I hope to maintain in the key paragraphs of Lord of Mysteries.
The structure of this book is probably the most thoughtful of my several books, with regard to how it is consistent from beginning to end. Please stay tuned.
The above are my thoughts and attempts on this book. I hope you like it and I hope you can stick to it by subscribing. After all, I still have to eat and buy clothes, skirts, bags and houses for my wife.
I have always been a vulgar person, I have never doubted that. At the same time, I am also a very lazy person with very problematic personality.
I once thought about organizing my fans like other authors, but, oh, it’s so annoying and tiring, and then, nothing happened.
I once thought about opening a Weibo account to attract attention, but, oh, it was so annoying and tiring, and then, nothing happened. I don’t know how long it has been since I last updated my Weibo.
I created a WeChat public account and tried to write something, but it was so annoying and tiring, and I only updated it once in a while.
I once tried to ask someone to help activate the official account, but when I saw the content posted by others, I always felt embarrassed and ashamed, so I stopped.
Huh, I want to reconcile with myself now. Admit it, you are a lazy person, you are a person with flawed interpersonal relationships, you are a thin-skinned person who cares too much about face, you are a person who doesn't like to be disturbed by all kinds of trivial matters, you are a person who is hopeless.
Perhaps, what I can do well and am willing to do well is writing, telling the stories in my heart.
The above is my reconciliation with myself. I will no longer live awkwardly and will no longer force anything to gather popularity, such as a public account. I will update it when I think of it and when there is content. If I don’t think of it, forget it. Well, reconciliation is just literary persuasion. The accurate description should be self-abandonment. This is manually funny.
After the communication, I will update the VIP chapter tomorrow morning, which is a few minutes after 12 o'clock tonight. Please subscribe and vote for me in advance. I will burst out with enthusiasm, really. I have saved some manuscripts!
Well, at least, at least five chapters, maybe six!
