As is customary for a Sanjiang recommendation week, I should say a few words.
I was a failed webnovel writer who started writing in 2008. After failing with seven books in a row, I finally got Non-Human signed.
This was my first A-level contract. Last week was my first time getting a recommendation slot, and this week was my first time on Sanjiang... There would be all sorts of firsts to come...
I had been rejected for contracts four times in a row. I had written a million words without receiving a contract. I had written two hundred thousand words with zero clicks. I had even experienced the legendary [Forbidden Technique: 404]...
I knew perfectly well how terrible my writing was. There was a reason I had flopped so badly all these years.
I was the most typical kind of author: someone who read too many books and eventually rose up to write one. I knew no writing techniques and had no foundation whatsoever. I just forced myself to write.
You could tell from all the awkward transitions in the story. My experience bar had not filled up yet, and my writing level was still trash.
Non-Human's premise drew you all in, but the actual content repeatedly disappointed you. Cang Yue felt awful about that.
I was someone who was easily swayed by book reviews. During the censorship period, I revised the outline three times. After the new book was released, I revised it twice more while writing based on reader feedback.

After this, I should just write the story I wanted to write.
Non-Human was simply about a protagonist relying
