Unconsciously, it’s almost three hundred thousand words again...
This is the fourth time I’ve written a subscription goals celebration post; as I become more proficient, my emotions grow calmer...
It seems I’ve gone from a timid kitten to an old dog who can’t change back, wuwuwu...
Thanks to Star Wish Eternal, Monster City Listens to the Sun, Soul’s Armor, Alcohol List Lun, and Sinkedboat for being my Lords, and also thanks to Wala Wu, Yidamblowe, Explode Haman Goutou, Xiaolingw, and Zhen Wuyue and other readers for their rewards~
Similarly, thanks to my editor Zi Yue and Shrimp Dumpling for their hearty recommendations and helpful revision suggestions~
And thanks to Yang Chenkong, Shadow Forest, and Play With Decency for their massive support in the form of book lists!
No selling misery today, because I’m pretty sure hardly any author has it worse than me. Plus, it feels odd to wallow in self-pity on such a joyful occasion...
Let’s talk about the book instead.
I love those who always harbor love and hope in their hearts.
I’m convinced that there’s nothing greater, purer, or more powerful than the innate goodness of humanity.
So, although the theme of this book is "the outlaw," it will still end up being a story filled with hope and love.
A spirit of spontaneity, chasing after joy.
The goodwill that sprouts from the unrestrained heart of Annan will surely be clearer, more resolute, and more moving than that of ordinary people...
Go ahead and subscribe with total peace of mind.
After all, when your Miao writes novels, at the very least, it’s "serious" work.
Mercury Blood only had three hundred initial subscriptions, and I wrote one and a half million words.
But hard work in typing and serious reflection have paid off. My skills have grown through prolonged thinking and planning.
The first book after Mercury had an initial subscription of 3,400, with an average subscription of nine thousand and fifty thousand collections when it reached one and a half million words, and it’s now dragging onto ten thousand averages. The second book started at 4,200 subscriptions, broke ten thousand average subscriptions at a million words, and peaked at seventy-five thousand collections upon completion...
Now, this book has thirty-two thousand collections, and my expectation is a ten-to-one subscription to collection ratio, which means three thousand average on the first day of premium listing.
If this goal is met, I’ll add an extra Chapter for every three hundred additional initial subscriptions. I also remember the rewards for additional Chapters—owing one Chapter to each Lord, currently owing six.
And tomorrow, when it goes live, the minimum will be five Chapters!
Around half-past midnight, I’ll release the first Chapter to facilitate your subscription.
...Yes, I don’t have any stockpile, not a single Chapter (sorrowful).
But Miao is going all out! (Cracking voice)
When I wake up and get up, I’ll start continuous serious typing mode, and as soon as I finish writing, I’ll publish!
The remaining owed Chapters will slowly be returned in December!
I hope you all subscribe enthusiastically so I can owe you even more!
See you in a few hours, everyone.
I hope we can meet again.
——Whether we meet again or not, I wish you all everlasting happiness.
