Chapter 88: Shelf Celebration Message
This book is finally going on sale.
At this moment, Author feels a mix of emotions.
To be honest, Author is actually not a newcomer and has had many creation experiences before, but performance has always been quite ordinary.
This book is the one with the best performance since Author started writing, and it far exceeds all previous works.
This book, to put it bluntly, is a book that changes fate and life for Author.
Author is no longer young and is almost middle-aged this year.
Home has children below and elders above; elders’ medical care, children’s schooling, mortgage, car loan, wife at home taking care of the children and family unable to go out to work, all the pressure is on Author.
Previous performance has always been ordinary; honestly, supporting the family is quite strenuous. Author has even thought about whether to stop writing and go find a job.
But Author is quite socially anxious with low emotional intelligence; this can probably be seen from the plot in the text, Reader Lords.
Going out to find a job, first, probably won’t earn as much as writing novels, second, Author really dislikes contact with too many people and only wants to immerse in own science fiction world to unfold imagination.
Ordinary performance and family pressure have left Author physically and mentally exhausted.
But fortunately, dawn appeared.
Here, thank my editor Blue Light; it was his guidance that made me think of this theme, and even more thanks to all you Reader Lords; it is your support that has brought this book to this step.
But what has appeared at this moment is merely dawn.
No matter how good the early data is, how high the collection, how high the subscription rate, ultimately it all depends on one data.
Subscription.
Child’s tuition, parents’ medical fees, monthly thousands in mortgage and car loan, tickets for taking the child to the amusement park, occasional meal fees for eating out, all depend on each subscription from you Reader Lords.
One subscription is a dime or two dimes, which may not be much for you Reader Lords. But for Author, it is the foundation for a nearly middle-aged author to make a living and support the family.
Here, I sincerely beg all Reader Lords: to let Author continue creating with peace of mind, to shoulder the responsibility of supporting the family without other things disturbing, if you Reader Lords find this book passable, please subscribe to this book.
Higher subscriptions mean more money in Author’s hands, which allows greater passion and motivation for creation, to create better stories for everyone.
This is very realistic and very cruel, but Author has no choice.
For a middle-aged person who needs to support the family, any ideal and enthusiasm can only be discussed after solving the real pressure.
Here, I beg you Reader Lords!
Also, Author explains here the extra update plan after going on sale.
The first day is obviously the usual on-sale routine: ten updates, twenty thousand words.
Previously, Author promised: during double monthly ticket period, 1000 tickets add one chapter; non-double period, 500 tickets add one chapter.
Last month, Author owed you Reader Lords a total of 12 chapters. Since 10.1, monthly tickets already over 2000, so total 14 chapters.
Originally, Author thought to set daily guaranteed updates after going on sale at two chapters four thousand words, then the eight chapters besides the guaranteed two from the first day’s ten updates would all count as repaying monthly ticket updates, which would make the pressure smaller.
But Author thought again: isn’t this playing tricks on you Reader Lords?
Playing tricks on Reader Lords is just playing tricks on own career, own work, and the money for supporting the family?
Things can’t be done this way.
So Author decides: tomorrow’s first-day 10 updates on sale will not count in the extra updates.
After tonight’s midnight 12 o’clock, around tomorrow morning 00:01, will release all 10 chapters at once.
The 14 chapters owed to you Reader Lords are still 14 chapters.
At the same time, daily guaranteed updates are no longer 2 chapters 4000 words, but 3 chapters 6000 words.
Owed chapters will be added beyond daily guaranteed 3 updates, repaid slowly.
Only beg you Reader Lords to see Author’s effort and sincerity, to show understanding to a middle-aged person who needs to support the family, and contribute your subscriptions!
At the same time, monthly ticket extra updates continue after going on sale: still non-double period 500 tickets, double period 1000 tickets add one chapter!
Author will definitely strive to update more and repay as soon as possible!
Creating the story is handed to Author; supporting Author is entrusted to you Reader Lords!
Zero point with rain bows!
