How Long Does It Take for a New Writer to Make It? I’ve Been Writing for 54 Days
54 days. I finished my first book on day 45: 320,000 words, writing for 8–12 hours a day. I’m now planning my second book, but nobody’s reading the first one anymore. Is it really that bad? Am I just someone with no talent? (sobbing)
Heartbreakingly Angsty Stories That Make Your Heart Hurt
I've read quite a lot of angsty stories before, and I'm usually a bit sentimental. I love listening to sad songs and hearing sad stories, too. I've already read "Bone-Deep Crisis", "He Said Our Love Came Too Late", and "May You Shine as Bright as the Stars"... I'd prefer something with lots of chapters, since I'm a night owl.

I like food, palace intrigue, the imperial examinations, political schemes, and crime-solving. On Tomato, I’ve read The Strongest Female Grand Secretary Rises Against the Odds; for palace intrigue, Zhaohua Weiyang, Palace Willows, and Deep Palace Strategy: The Tale of Qingzhi; for food, Chang’an Snack Shop (I can’t remember if it was on Tomato).

As a struggling writer, I am determined to make every character I write feel real and have a soul. My standard is a fast pace, without dragging things out. My principle is not to deliberately flatter or fawn over anyone. Everyone has their own independent personality; there is no absolute good or bad.
It's so good! The ending, the forbidden love, shocked me. I can only say the female lead is doomed to be with the Wanqi family for life; the son is even crazier than the father. But it's really sweet and I wish them a long and happy life together. But why is the rating so low? Everyone should go watch it! [Full][Full]
I'm a very picky reader when it comes to novels, but after reading just two chapters of this one, I couldn't put it down. The female protagonist is strong-willed, very clear-headed, and knows what she wants and what she needs to do. The male lead is quite unique. He's outspoken, daring, and decisive. The key is to keep your word.
It's really good! It's not one of those typical time-travel or rebirth novels. The plot is very engaging, and I love the cover design. I stayed up all night reading it. I don't know why the rating isn't high. I'm giving it five stars.
It's super good! Arthur is really great; he unconditionally trusts the female lead, does so much for her, and never hurts her. And General Yan, who said, "If Chu hadn't been destroyed, you would have been my wife." The ending was a bit surprising.
No, who did the female lead end up with? Was it Yin or Arthur? Let me know if anyone has finished reading it.
The male lead is really crazy, but so captivating. I enjoy watching it.
Spring thunder rumbled in front of the palace, and a kitten meowed wildly. Right? I need a bit of that stray fur. Please describe the above details in detail.
I absolutely love this book! The plot is bold, and the writing is exquisite. The romance is described with incredible detail! Please, please read it! The low rating is really unacceptable.
It's great! I binged it all in one go. I'm so lucky that I finished reading it right after the author finished it. The story is well-told, the writing is excellent, and each character is unique and distinctive. Highly recommended!
