In the outline I made, the Holy Grail incident is over, which means that this volume is halfway done. Judging from the current subscriptions, it’s okay.
The current subscription is the mid-term achievement of Dafeng. For a new book, it is very impressive. It’s just that my update is not ideal, but there is no other way. Let me tell you slowly.
Before starting the book, I spent a long time working on the outline and settings. The Holy Grail incident is a connecting plot between the previous and the next, with many foreshadowings and hidden plots, some of which readers can see and some of which no one has noticed.
I think you all still have confidence in me regarding the overall control and structure of the entire book.
Let me talk about my feelings when writing this plot. Let me start with the shortcomings. The level of the event is too high, and the protagonist is a low-level walker. His participation in the event will not be too high. In simple terms: there is not much chance for him to show off.
If the protagonist keeps showing off in front of a group of powerful bosses, it would be too vicious and unreasonable.
In fact, I realized this problem when I was halfway through writing, and because it is a modern subject, it is impossible to be like a night watchman, where the emperor gives an order: if the case is not solved within three days, you will be beheaded!
This kind of operation is not possible for themes with modern backgrounds, so I was once very troubled about how to highlight the presence of the protagonist.
This is the risk of changing the subject. If you have never written something before, you will definitely lack experience and make mistakes.
Fortunately, everyone is very tolerant of me, and I still have control over my writing, so I use constant "asking the spirits" to increase the protagonist's involvement.
During the process, although some readers complained that it was not satisfying enough, the average subscription has been growing steadily. Now it has reached 60,000, which is worth celebrating.
Although I sped up the progress of the Holy Grail incident, I still wrote out the most essential content in its entirety and achieved the effect I expected.
Back to the topic, the outline of Spirit Realm is more detailed than Night Watchman, but this is not a good thing, because the structure is too tight, so many times, you know that there is a problem with this plot, but you can't stop it.
Because it is closely related to the subsequent content, and one move will affect the whole body. This can be regarded as a warning to fellow authors. I asked Squid a long time ago, and I said that the mysterious structure is very good. Is your outline very detailed?
Squid said: My outline is very rough, and a lot of it is written and supplemented as I go.
I thought to myself, you mollusk with thick eyebrows and big eyes, you must be fooling me.
Now I have to admit that he was right.
Next, I will focus on mid- and low-level events to allow the protagonist to have more and better participation (to show off), but with the Holy Grail plot lasting more than half a month, I can’t spare the time for this.
I may have to spend half a day tomorrow making a detailed outline and correcting my status.
Next is the highlight: Thanks to the golden alliance of the "Zhaicai" boss. What is the boss's address? I will wash myself and send it to you by express delivery.
The first golden alliance in Lingjing was born. When I was chatting with Zhaicai boss yesterday, he said he would give me a golden alliance. I thought he was joking at the time.
Unexpectedly, the tycoon kept his word and the price really went up in gold the next day.
Tough!
I originally wanted to add more chapters today, but after revising it a bit, I found it difficult. It is really too difficult given my current writing state.
I have never written about the subject of spiritual realm. After the article was put on the shelves, I was walking on thin ice, for fear of breaking down. Therefore, the update has not been fast enough. The daily update is between 6,000 and 7,000 words, which is lower than others who update more than 10,000 words a day.
If it were a fantasy novel, I would probably be able to write faster, after all, I have the experience of Dafeng as a foundation.
This is the pain and charm of trying new subject matter, it is painful and joyful.
Although I can’t add more chapters, I am deeply moved by the boss’s golden alliance.
When I get better at writing in the future, I will definitely find a way to make up for it by adding more chapters.
Thank you, Golden Alliance!!
