Warhammer: In the Name of the Emperor - #718 - Final messages and thoughts
This is the whole story. Although I decided to end it here, I still try my best to write the rest of the story in the most complete and detailed way to everyone. I hope everyone likes it. This is what I can do in the end.
Let me tell you my thoughts. I am a very late-minded and stubborn person. When I first wrote this book, I really didn’t expect it to be popular. After all, it is an original indigenous person and not a time traveler or a system. It really didn’t happen. I thought that so many people would read and look forward to it in the end. This greatly exceeded my expectations and made me turn a novel that was originally written for fun into a serious task.
But I let everyone down. I know everyone is very disappointed. I don’t want to find reasons to say it’s not my fault, but I still want to share some reflections and thoughts.
The earliest, that is, the best and most essential stories, were actually written when I didn’t pay much attention to readers’ comments, and when my subscriptions increased day by day. At that time, writing stories was really just my pastime and hobby. It is a kind of relief from my busy life, and it is something different from work, so I started writing books very early. When I was in junior high school, I wrote down young stories in a notebook.
At that time, I filled up five thick notebooks with countless discarded pens. I liked reading extracurricular books at that time, so unknowingly, the stories I wanted to read appeared in my mind, so , and wrote it down.
Later, I also kept writing books, but they were either not published or were only on small platforms. By the way, on Qidian, I also uploaded a story I had written before and which I really liked.
That’s what I’ve been saying all along, writing my own stories, not caring about the market, reader feedback, making money or anything like that, like a hermit, living deep in the mountains and forests.
But in the end, I changed unknowingly, and now I realize that I realized it later. When I discovered that the subscriptions were getting higher and higher, and the monthly tickets and readers were getting more and more, I became very proud and arrogant, and began to believe that I would be able to Maintain this level, break through 10,000 yuan, etc., but in fact this is impossible.
After all, I am not someone like Liu Cixin, so it is difficult for me to maintain an unshakable peak. And because I am pushed so high by the data and my own mentality, when the data drops, I panic and start to completely I broke my past habit of writing books and started thinking about “making money, maintaining data and catering to readers”
From here on, everything changed. I started to write content that I actually didn’t like, but thought it could cater to the readers. It was cool and awesome. Vito gradually changed from a story I conceived to a wonderful story. The protagonist who shaped this book has become a cool protagonist who puts on a show of force and possesses the power of ghosts and monsters.
This is the problem that started after the rise of the original body. Gradually, I began to find that I didn’t understand the things I wrote. It turned into a patchwork of stitches. The more I wrote, the worse it became, because I I didn’t know what I was going to write at first, and then I got into a mess, and the rhythm and idea were all messed up.
There is also the issue of money. I don’t want to give myself credit. When I first wrote well, I really didn’t think about making money with this book, but later I thought so. So the most common thing is also the biggest one. The problems started, watering down, a lot of delay, and meaningless chapters.
Everyone should be able to clearly notice that when I first wrote the book, the plots were compact and fast. When there was water, the progress was rarely very stable. That was also my peak and best state, and from here on At some point, I became a douchebag.
It was at this step that many good authors were ruined and let everyone down just like me. It took me a long time and many readers left before I understood it through pain and entanglement, but it was already too late. Night.
I’m really sorry for everyone. I know everyone’s expectations of me. I know I’m not qualified to ask for forgiveness, but I hope everyone knows that I won’t just let it go. This is not a heroic declaration, nor is it a bravado. Bragging, it’s just that I will continue to write books and I will get back to my earliest self.
The self who doesn’t care about traffic, opinions, or evaluations and just wants to write stories, because he’s not dead either. He is me, the self who is gradually waking up.
It’s not my place to give an evaluation of a book like this. Whether it’s good or bad, I’m not qualified to do it. History has its own evaluation. But for me, the setbacks and failures after this peak really benefited me a lot. , the elders always say that you will never look back until you hit the south wall, but I want to say that people always have to bump into each other, because only when you hit your head and bleed, the fog in front of you will dissipate.
I crashed badly, but I, I don’t think I will be sad anymore, because I feel that I understand a lot, and I also comprehend a lot, just like swimming in a bottomless ocean, and finally, I floated up Same as the water surface.
But I will continue to return to the sea. Given time, soon after I have a good rest and write down my experiences and lessons in the sea in my diary, I believe that I will return to the sea with a better version of myself and my works. return.
Once again, I say goodbye to you all briefly, but this is not a farewell, because I like writing books and I like stories, and that’s enough.
Finally, I hope everyone will forgive me. This is truly my opinion, and it comes from the bottom of my heart.
