Going premium: a newbie begs for subscriptions

As everyone knows, the author is a pitiful, helpless newbie with a hearty appetite.

Please, everyone, spare a subscription for this newcomer.

This book doesn't have anything particularly profound to say. It's mainly just for fun. I write whatever the hell comes to mind, and as long as you readers enjoy it, that's enough. Of course, if you could subscribe while you're at it, that would be lovely too.

It really matters to me. After all, this is fan fiction, and I rely entirely on your subscription money to put food on the table.

Friends and neighbors, brothers and sisters, if you've got money, please chip in. If not, lend your support however you can. Even a positive review would be great.

The book goes premium at 14:00 on September 1, with five chapters released.

There are currently 13,800 readers following the latest updates. Starting from 5,000 first-chapter subscriptions, every additional hundred subscriptions earns an extra chapter.

For monthly votes, the starting point is 1,000. Every additional hundred earns an extra chapter.

Each Alliance Leader earns an extra chapter.

I'll do my best to finish all the bonus chapters in September and write a little more.

Finally, please subscribe to the first premium chapter. I want to earn a badge too.

No Shrouding the Heavens fan fiction has ever reached ten thousand first-chapter subscriptions. Maybe I can fill that gap.

1: Teacher Chen Dong's new book comes out on September 6. Although my relationship with Teacher Chen Dong amounts to me knowing him and him not knowing me, I do make my living off Shrouding the Heavens [Gratitude! I can never repay Brother Dong's kindness!].

I'm just a minor author without much of a following, but I'll give Teacher Chen Dong what publicity I
