    This is my third year writing solo. I update frequently when I have free time, and slowly when I run out of ideas. I took a break for a few months before returning to find people still following me, which touched me deeply. Although I'm not a full-time author, I put my heart into every chapter. I've just revised the outline a bit. I plan to finish the first book around one million words, then try to save some manuscript for the second book. I wonder if the readership will be good. No time travel, no system, single female lead, no harem, rigorous logic, and no character downgrades. It's a traditional Chinese fantasy, based on the Classic of Mountains and Seas, the Search for the Gods, and other ancient Chinese mythology, including primogeniture, the caste system, and the Five Elements theory. The story has a grand world view, a dramatic plot, and reasonable suspense. Anyway, there are many plot holes, but I'll fill them in slowly.
