Jian was an ordinary young man with big dreams. He had loved reading and writing since childhood, and always dreamed of becoming a novelist. However, the pressures and responsibilities of real life led him to choose a stable job and set his writing aside.
Yet despite having steady work, his dream never faded. In his spare time, he kept honing his writing skills and reading classics for inspiration. His efforts paid off: he began publishing short stories online and earned recognition and attention from some readers.
Just as Jian was preparing to pursue his dream again, his life took a dramatic turn. By chance, an editor at a publishing house read his work, praised his talent and potential as a writer, and got in touch with him.
The editor offered Jian the opportunity to publish a novel. Faced with this chance, Jian became hesitant and confused. He worried that his writing wasn't good enough and was afraid of facing challenges and criticism.
