Sunny and Cloudy

I am the author of "Sunny Days and Cloudy Days", a little-known author. Since Tomato is very friendly to new writers, I decided to try writing. Thousands of emotions are recorded in this article. Just my personal thoughts, nothing else. Let me explain, don't spray and refuse online violence. These are really from the heart, the content may be a bit direct, and I am not necessarily the only one who has experienced this. For me, writing has been my hobby since childhood. I have been writing unremittingly. I will have a novel to accompany me at several important stages in my life. Books are like my friends, and my works are my close friends. There is no end to learning, live and learn. I think that for us writers, there is no peak. We are all on the mountain, but there are differences in heights. Through each novel, I gradually matured from childishness, and I finally mustered up the courage to take a step towards my dream. Maybe, many people can't understand, and think this is not a step, and the road is long, of course I understand, but do you understand, I have dreamed since childhood, persisted for more than ten years, been ridiculed, and not understood, but I have not been defeated. I stood up time and time again and said lightly to those people, "I will continue." When I had expectations and worries, I carefully started coding. When choosing between quality and quantity, I chose quality without hesitation. My words may only reach a level that you can read in your eyes, but I write with my heart, and this is the difference. I don't have a lot of free time, nor do I have the ability to express my thoughts every day. The word count of about 5,000 words every two days is just right for me. However, after I signed the contract and made many changes, I was shocked to discover a pattern that ruined my outlook: What Tomato Novels focus on is not quality, but quantity. Open three books at once, and if you don't have 200 yuan a day, write them poorly; intentionally write poorly to lure old readers away, and more new readers will come to read them, and the completion rate will increase instead of decreasing (the Tomato platform gives all books relatively equal traffic, so if there are a large number of old readers, the platform will not recommend them to new readers for you)... And so on. My friend advised me to forget about it, write seriously, write with heart, and purely pursue quality, which will only result in less royalties... I admit, I hesitated and even almost gave up, but I was not willing to give up. Ten years of polishing myself day by day is not enough, but there are several more decades in my life that I don't want to lose. Although I can't do both quality and quantity, I will never give up quality for quantity. I also want to eat, but I want to fulfill my childhood dream. It has transcended the body and is a power derived from the soul. I will continue to explore and write in Pomodoro seriously and attentively, and continue to improve myself. Remember this article to warn yourself. I hope I can never forget my original intention, maintain a diligent attitude, and continue writing seriously.
