## Quotes

Ten Miles Sword God:

During the summer vacation of high school in 2006, I wrote the first novel of my life, online games, 200,000 words, but did not post it online.

After university in 2010, I began to conceive the setting of "East Earth World". When the official fantasy routines were just emerging, Shenji’s "Eternal Life" opened up a whole new world for countless people. At that time, I was full of confidence and I could It’s easy to write a fantasy routine with an annual salary of one million.

From 2010 to 2012, in two years, I wrote a setting of more than 100,000 words and a manuscript of more than 200,000 words. But I was too lazy at the time, and I didn't start writing until the end.

In the first half of 2012, I was mainly in Shuilongkong. At that time, I posted an essence post in Longkong every day, and opened many settings and beginnings, and officially transferred to the setting party member. This was the many settings and pits conceived at the time. , Unfortunately none of them opened.

In December 2012, I decided to follow my heart and write my favorite urban costume essay. The idea at that time was to write an urban cultivation essay with an annual salary of one million. Shi was still full of confidence, thinking that he could become a great god.

On December 23, 2012, I officially started writing, and I set myself a goal for at least a few hours a day.

At that time, no matter the introduction, setting, background of the novel, and even the name of the protagonist, they were completely different from this one now.

2013, 2014, 2015, 2016, a full 4 years. I overturned the setting, overturned the character framework, overturned the main line of the novel, overturned the beginning. Because I feel that the previous settings are too clichéd, I hope to write a little new idea, a little bit of my own, even if only a little bit.

I wrote 200,000 words for the simple set of settings alone, not counting redundant branch settings, outlines, beginnings, and scraps, which may add up to more than 500,000 words.

Four years ago, when I opened a new book, I was full of confidence, and I went away with an annual salary of one million. But in four years, the more I wrote, the more desperate I became. I felt that I had set a very ambitious setting, but my writing, my ideas, and my inspiration were totally unable to support this novel. Four years is enough to wipe out all passion, enough to wipe out the confidence of all those who support you.

In the past four years, I have not talked with any author on the Internet, and no one supports me in reality. My relatives and friends watched indifferently, and the way of communicating with classmates and friends on the Internet was also cut off. Only I was alone in this small county. , A study room of 10 square meters, quietly conceived and set.

Many times, I thought about giving up, but I was still unwilling.

I am an old bookworm who has read books for more than ten years and has witnessed the development of online literature. I have read countless novels and commented on many great works. I think I understand commercial writing. I think I know the essence of Shuangwen. This book has spent a lot of effort and preparation for three or four years... Why can't I write a novel? Even if I only make a thousand yuan a month, I admit it.

When I officially uploaded this novel on July 2, 2016, my expectation for it has become-it’s on the shelves, and the monthly draft fee is more than 5,000.

As long as the monthly manuscript fee is more than 5,000, I will grit my teeth and stick to my path of writing. If it is less than 5,000, it means that I am really not suitable for this path of writing. I overestimate myself too much, or obediently listen to my parents. , Go to work or go out to find a job.

I named the author'Shili Sword God'. I was thinking hard in this small county town with a radius of ten li. I hope that one day, I can practice hard like the'Shilipo Sword God'. Kyushu-even though I know it is just a dream.

In July 2nd 2016, the novel was uploaded.

11 noon on July 22: signing

At that time, I had been at the top of the new book list for three weeks, the word count had passed 130,000, and I had collected 5,000, but I never received the signing message. The more I thought about it, the more desperate I became. Why is it that I have signed the contract for other novel collections? Is this book too cliché and outdated to keep up with the times? At that time, I opened the vest and went to Longkong to inquire. Many friends suggested that I should submit the paper to the editor's mailbox to try. I received the signing text message as soon as I submitted it. I don’t know whether it was the reason for the submission or the application. Anyway, I signed the contract. Thank you very much to the friends who gave me suggestions at that time.
