48 Hours a Day

This thing was supposed to be written yesterday, since the main story and the extra story were both finished yesterday.

But it was late yesterday after writing the extra, and my procrastination kicked in, so I put it off another day until today.

It's a bit of a cliché, but I'd like to start by thanking you all for being there all the way through, because it's you guys who have made this book possible all the way through.

To be honest, when I typed the first word on the keyboard, I just wanted to write a story with less than two million words, but I didn't expect that the word count would have exceeded three million by the time it was finished.

If it weren't for all of you who have been subscribing and voting, I'm sure I wouldn't have made it this far.

Serializing is sometimes a lot like running a marathon, especially in the second half of the race, and it's often the easiest time to get tired.

The creators of Infinite Streams probably feel this most acutely as well.

The more exciting copy you think of first, the less you'll be able to find, and readers can easily get bored with the same type of copy, with the cortex's excitement for repetitive stimuli gradually decreasing.

Different creators will have different solutions, and I, for one, am actually crossing the river by trial and error because it's my first time trying out the unlimited flow theme, and the method I use is probably a bit clumsy, so I can only keep trying out different themes and styles in the hope that I can bring you something new.

Of course, there's a downside to doing this, sometimes the style changes too much and it may not be easy to accept, like the Lego replicas, I chose to approach the style of the Lego Movie and found that the reviews were actually quite polarized. Likewise, there's Black Sails, which is a bit more problematic, and the discomfort of going straight from the previously fast-paced short copy to the slow-paced group scenes may be even more intense.

I still remember that there were a lot of criticisms, even very intense ones, and at one point I was quite depressed, after all, as the creator worked very hard to write something, but afterwards it was not accepted, grievances must be there.

And after that I also made many other mistakes, spent too much space to spread the hints, which led to a part of the reader dissatisfaction, under the urging to try to compress the content of the back, which led to the front of the hints can only be thrown away, the end in a hurry, and even more sit true to the first half of the boring (good after the second half again, to redeem some mistakes).

I actually quite like the function of chapter saying, for readers, chapter saying makes you feel a sense of companionship when reading, just like the bouncing of the B site, and also enhances the genuine reading experience of some readers. As an author myself, I usually read a lot of chapters, because I can get feedback in the first time.

But it must also be admitted that the appearance of the chapter does increase the author's creative pressure, because if you are dissatisfied with a paragraph, the reader can now go directly to the chapter to say, write Black Sails during the time I even dare not read the chapter to say.

But now that I look back, I've learned a lot from both Black Sails and Lego and all those other copies.

The serial itself is not only a creative process, but also a continuous learning process, only by constantly reflecting on what is not done well, it is possible to improve and grow in the next.

That's why after Black Sails I chose to challenge myself with a more hardcore copy of Apollo Project Training Camp, which has the largest amount of material, and I also learned a part of Black Sails' lesson by incorporating the suspense element of werewolf killings into it, trying to make the pacing as tense as possible, both realistic and interesting, and the response afterwards felt pretty good.

Of course I'm most grateful to those readers who stayed by my side even during the most difficult times, you are the biggest reason why I was able to keep writing this book.

Aside from the Apollo Project training camp, my most satisfying copies are Bodyguard, Tokyo Drift, Mannerheim Line Welcome, and Lego I actually quite like, just the bitchy style of the Lego Movie ...... Well, hahahahaha, as the creator it's really hard for me to pick my real favorite because each copy poured a lot of effort into it.

You'll never know how much effort I put into figuring out the currency exchange ratio and purchasing power of the various countries in Black Sails, and how many videos I've posted on B-sites to find out what life is like for Japanese students.

Of course, because of my limited energy and the fact that I'm not a relevant professional or historical researcher, I'm sure there are some omissions, and some information will become inaccurate due to time.

I sincerely hope that this story will also bring some happiness to the readers, and I wish you all good health and all the best in your work and study.

Finally, a word about what I'm planning to do next.

First of all, I will spend half a month to finish the previous unfinished book "Star White Rabbit Sugar", which is also something I promised when I was writing 48, that book is actually not too online, more physical style, basically go through the plot, there is no upgrade content, and it is not the mainstream relaxed style, the previous poor performance is quite normal.

But I personally do like that story, so I'm going to finish it, in fact, just missing the end, because the original outline idea was just a short story, and now I just don't have to figure out how to lengthen it, so I can return to the short story.

I've already talked to my editor today, and the previously blocked chapters have finally been released, so I've mostly been busy reworking that previous chapter during the day today, mostly fixing some bugs and fixing some things I'm not happy with.

I'm not sure how much I'll be able to afford it, but I'm sure I'll be able to afford it.

I'm not sure if I'm going to be able to do this, but I'm sure I'm going to be able to do it for a while.

I'm usually a self-limiting person who doesn't talk much, but they never give me less recommendations than other authors, and they will also take the initiative to tell me how to change the introduction and where I can do better.

I'm not sure if I'm going to be able to do that, but I'm not sure if I'm going to be able to do that.

Everybody get some rest and take care of yourselves. We'll see you next time.
