"Rekindled" has 100,000 words, so let me make a summary. I haven't written an urban novel for a long time. When I started writing other genres, I was planning to change my mind, try new styles and fields, and explore. Because writing urban novels is a bit tiring, with all the information I have to look up every day, and a lot of time spent on plotting and arranging the plot. If I want to move readers, I must first move myself, the silly look of typing in front of the computer until tears flow down my face. As the saying goes, love does not last long, I am really afraid of aging prematurely:) (Although I am still 18 years old.)
Later, when I was writing fantasy and science fiction, I was also accumulating the desire to write a new urban novel.
After finishing my most recent book, this idea became even more certain.
It has been six years since the last episode of City. Looking back on these six years, I feel terribly that it seems that not much time has passed. I got married, had children, experienced so many things, and spent every year and year. But looking back suddenly, time seems to have been stolen, as if it was fast-forwarded and disappeared in an instant.
Is there any way to re-fill the frozen time? Only stories can do it.
Then immerse yourself in a story that touches you and me, and that you can feel as if it is right next to you.
Before writing Rekindled, I was still very nervous. I hoped that it would be derived from the previous works and have more improvements. So in terms of rhythm, I will pay more attention to some details, try to deepen the portrayal of some characters, and try my best to outline this period of Cheng Ran's life with richer colors. I hope to see not only him here, but also other people, who, under the influence of Cheng Ran, changed the world.
So it is better to slow down the pace rather than miss some bright spots.
Ten thousand words have passed, and so far, overall, I am still satisfied.
I finished writing the update today and scheduled it to be published tomorrow morning. As I was getting ready to go to sleep, I suddenly felt a little emotional.
Sometimes I feel really lucky that I can still write something like this. I feel really lucky that I still have a group of friends like you who never leave me.
As the saying goes, old friends are like old dogs. In the end, we are the ones who keep each other company and don’t feel lonely.
After many years, we have moved forward in our life journey. Many of my friends who used to read my books have been admitted to college from middle school, studied for a master's degree or a doctorate in college, or have been working for many years, and even have a lot of naughty children.
Perhaps, it is timely to start Cheng Ran’s story at this time.
As the saying goes, flowers may bloom again, but people can never be young again.
We are all growing up, and we will all grow old.
In the years when passion is about to fade, I hope you and I can regain our enthusiasm, and I hope that there will always be youth living in our hearts.
I hope everyone can accompany Cheng Ran on this new journey of life...
Everything is burning.
Finally, yes, you know my routine, I say so much just to ask for votes:)
