BXBX NOVEL Chapter 72 - 72: On the Shelf Remarks!!!
Hello dear readers-!
It’s been a month since I started writing, and finally, it’s time to launch-!
I’m a little excited, and pretty nervous-
Excited because now I can make some money, after all, even a little author like me needs to eat, right?
Nervous because I don’t know how it’ll do.
Among all the websites, Starting Point has a relatively long “new book period” – sometimes stretching to one or two months – which is honestly quite hard to endure.
Plus, I’m really bad with my hands, and my typing speed is terrible.
But thanks to the support of you lovely and kind readers, I’ve managed to stick with it and have over a million-word main storyline planned out.
The pandemic has been really tough…
So I’m thrilled that I can finally launch and make some moneyOf course, I’m happy to be able to make money.
Even more so, with my own work!
And if you, dear readers, can support me by subscribing or rewarding, I’ll be even happier-I
Subscribing to a chapter doesn’t cost that much, but it can make a little author like me verv haDDV, and vou’ll eniov reading it too (on)
Isn’t that right-
Though my results can’t really compare to others’, and you might even say I’m being beaten,
Still, I’m holding on to a glimmer of hope – what if I can achieve something?
We all need a little hope in our lives,
Maybe then I can afford to add an extra chicken leg to my meal.
And who knows, maybe even afford a new keyboard-I.
Right now I’m using an old, unwanted one from a friend; though it’s not very comfortable to use, and I’ve even developed some tendonitis in my right wrist from it,
I’m still grateful to my friend because he could have sold it as second-hand but gave it to me instead.
So I haven’t replaced it yet.
If I could make some money, I’d like to get an ergonomic one since it’s my primary tool for my livelihood – I’ve been eyeing them for quite some time…
Even though I’m a bit clumsy, I’ll do my best to repay all of you with my best writing.
I’ve put a lot of thought into the world-building and overall storyline for this book before I started writing, so I promise there won’t be any chaotic power levels or plot holes!
As an avid reader myself, I’ll do my best to avoid any pitfalls in the story.
Getting back to the topic,
This introduction might be a bit all over the place and nonsensical,
But in the end, this is just my way of having a casual chat with all of you and asking for your subscriptions.
There’s no helping it – subscriptions are a little author’s life…
I hope you don’t give up on me, and please don’t drop the book. Give me a chance and some encouragement.
If you can, please also set up an auto-subscription!
Please support this little author, thank you all!
Now let me talk about the schedule and additional updates after the launch-
[Note: On the day of the launch, I’ll be going all out, updating with 10,000 words!]
If I get over 500 initial subscriptions, I’ll maintain full attendance and update two chapters [4k words] daily until Starting Point goes bankrupt!
If I get over 1500 initial subscriptions, I’ll update three chapters [6k words] daily!
If I get over 2500 initial subscriptions, I’ll go all out and update four chapters [8k words] daily!
All I ask for are your subscriptions!
As for rewarding additional updates, I saw some rules on other people’s works that I thought were pretty good, so I made some slight changes and decided to use them-
20,000 rewards for one additional chapter [2k words]!
Lord tier gives six additional chapters [12,000 words]!
Silver tier gives sixty-six additional chapters [132,000 words]!
Gold tier…l haven’t decided yet…
Well, to be honest, I haven’t experienced rewards leading to additional updates before.
Even just thinking about reaching the Lord tier is already beyond this little author’s imagination, but since others have mentioned it, I had to grit my teeth and include it anyway.
And besides, this kind of counts as a dream, rightQ so…
Let’s meet on Saturday (5.27) at 12 noon – don’t be late-!
A bow of gratitude from this little author!
[Note: After the launch, the length of the chapters will be the same as before, around 4k words (3-5k-4-5k) per chapter-I]
I’d like to recommend a book from a good friend of mine (an experienced, long-form writer). If you like Lord-style stories or soft sci-fi, you might want to give it a try-
“The Age of Warships: I Choose to Build a Star-Level Giant Ship”
