Thoughts on Going Premium (Group 421469256)
This book will be available for purchase tomorrow, or rather, tonight at midnight. Thank you all for your support during this time!
Actually, I never really read the author's launch message when reading other people's novels, and I didn't understand the point of writing such a thing. Now that I'm writing my own book, I realize that a launch message seems quite necessary? At least this chapter serves a purpose: letting readers know that the novel will start charging after this chapter!
On April 1st, which was last Friday, the editor told me it was ready to be published. I won't make up any lies like it was to give readers more free chapters; to be honest, I just wanted it to stay on the new book recommendation list a little longer, hoping for a few more favorites and more readers to follow it. Because of this, the word count has increased from 170,000 to 210,000.
However, recommendations aren't a panacea. In the past two days, I've noticed that the increase in bookmarks has become quite sluggish. I don't know if it's because the audience has become saturated or if my writing simply isn't engaging enough.
After reading many comments, I realized that some issues in the previous chapters were indeed not handled well, causing many readers to abandon the book. Before leaving, they even had to curse me, which made me quite upset. The thing is, there's nothing I can do; it's true that my writing didn't make them happy, and I have to take responsibility. But that's the main plot, and there aren't many things I can change. All I can say is that I'll pay more attention to it in the next book (crying emoji).
I am extremely grateful to all the readers who persevered and read on; thank you for your support!
For a new author to have these statistics, I shouldn't ask for anything more. All I can do is offer my sincere thanks!
I've already said quite a bit, and those who have read this far must be extremely patient readers. So, I'll take this opportunity to say a few words of complaint, hoping you won't get impatient: I created a group two days before the release, which was yesterday. I knew that not many people would join, but the number was still quite disheartening, making me completely doubtful that the number of subscriptions on the first day after the release would plummet.
Hopefully, things will gradually get better.
Finally, thank you again for your support!
The first VIP chapter will be released a little after midnight tonight. I hope everyone will definitely give it a first subscription to support me! Each chapter only costs a few cents, and you can earn money by investing in Qidian.
Thank you!
Thank you again!!
