I was drenched in sweat!
The website's electronic contract had already been signed, but I never expected it to still be going through the process and not changed to signed status. I had urgently contacted the chief editor about this. It would have been fine on a normal workday, but the key was that today was the weekend. As things stood now, the signing status could not be changed until next Monday at the latest.
Before the contract status was changed, no one could send rewards. Many readers had been constantly refreshing since 8 a.m. this morning to vie for the Alliance Leader serial numbers.
I had been careless!
When I wrote books before, I truly had never considered something like this. This time, with commercial writing, I had truly come to understand such details.
I had not handled this detail well, and I was deeply sorry!
When the contract status was changed, I would provide a compensation plan for readers who became Alliance Leaders that day and the following day.
I knew many of you were not entirely satisfied with the new book's cover. At that time, I would arrange for a custom cover. I would send it to every Alliance Leader as a gift in the form of an art print or postcard. It would also come with my handwritten signature.
Many readers had asked about the new book's group chat. I would make a unified announcement after the new book's contract status was changed.
Many friends had also asked about my livestreams. I would join platforms such as Douyin, but livestreaming was not something that could be arranged anytime soon. For this period, I would still focus on writing and stockpiling chapters. I would strive to prepare for a massive update on the day the book went premium! I would keep everyone informed of the relevant details later.
This situation had caught me completely off guard. It was extremely awkward.
Once again, I would like to apologize to everyone!
