Evil dragon has a warm heart-Chapter 77 - Listing Remarks

Chapter 77: Listing Remarks

Well, it’s that time again to write a launch speech.

The book hit the shelves in the early hours of March 4th, and to be honest, it was a bit abrupt, landing right in the middle of a transitional chapter, dampening everyone’s enthusiasm to read.

I had planned to skip the speech and just sneak by, with the author quietly writing and the readers quietly subscribing.

Moreover, this book is like old wine in an old bottle, no, more accurately, old wine in an old bottle.

It’s kind of embarrassing to be relying on past success.

However, there are still some loyal fans who, after all these years, keep nagging me, hoping I would rewrite a story similar to “Dragon”… of course, there are also those who want a rewrite of “Heavy Truck,” and there are also two “disappeared” works that some fans mention.

So, I’ve always had the idea of rewriting the story about Elf and the dragon, and after a few opening chapters were shot down by the editor, “The Warm Dragon” was born.

The title is rather unrefined.

But it fits the theme of the story well, so even though many readers criticized it, I insisted on not changing it.

As of now, the performance of this book is mediocre, perhaps due to the slow pace, or possibly because of my limited writing skills.

I’ve also considered whether I should speed up the pace.

The writing environment now compared to a few years ago has undergone huge changes, with the advent of short videos further accelerating readers’ preference for a fast pace. The recommendation system in Qidian is also constantly being reformed, which may not affect the top authors, but for a mid-tier author like me, it’s tough to handle.

Sometimes I even wonder if I’m no longer suited for writing, having been left behind by the times.

But in the still of the night, tossing and turning, I still love this industry.

After all, since junior high, I’ve enjoyed writing, and more than twenty years passed in a blur; I still like to write. Besides, without writing, I wouldn’t know what else to do with myself, and sometimes I really feel lost.

Returning to this book, the tone I set from the beginning was a slow-paced farming story, with lots of daily life to increase immersion.

So, I was prepared for the performance to be so-so. Suddenly speeding up the pace could have meant losing hold of the framework, and it would have created a dissonant clash with the earlier parts. It seemed better to continue at this pace; given enough time, the flavor will naturally emerge.

Fantasy is already a niche market, and our encounter here must be some kind of fate.

Let this fate come slowly and leave gently.

Alright then.

After rambling so much, I suddenly feel much better. People are strange sometimes, loving solitude yet yearning for liveliness. As a homebody, the happiest moments for me, Old Bai, are when I’m reading the reviews.

Our readers are each talented in their own right, speaking so eloquently, and I just love reading the reviews.

I also like to find inspiration in them.

This kind of interaction can greatly stimulate creative inspiration because it makes you feel you’re not performing on an empty stage, but instead have a crowd cheering you on, participating in every performance.

I won’t ramble on any further.

An early morning launch calls for a ten-chapter release!

Updated from freewёbnoνel.com.

I hope everyone can show some support and give Old Bai a first subscription, to give me more motivation to write.

After launching, barring any surprises, there will be at least 6,000 words a day, with occasional bursts of creativity.

Last but not least, thank you to everyone who has rewarded, voted, and commented since the book started a month ago. Thank you for your company, and the words I have for you will continue in the story.

Thank you!
