I also find it difficult to write. I want to write a novel with multiple heroines, but each heroine must have an emotional line. But if you want to fall in love reasonably, you must have a daily routine, but the daily routine is very slow, so you can only write in your own way. This is what I wrote. Everyone who has read it thinks it is good. If you like it, you can read it [licking screen][licking screen][licking screen]

Is there still an audience for realistic works? Why are the books on the list mostly filled with fantasy, time travel, and rebirth books? In this era of involution, many people want to escape from a stressful life. Of course, there are also people who are willing to understand life in depth, and this is the reader group of realist works. Some books are like wine, which can take you away from the pressure of real life, bring you a sense of numbness, and relieve you from all your worries. This is why many people love wine. But, can wine really relieve worries? After sobering up, there is a deeper void. Since we cannot escape, perhaps facing our lives bravely is the way out.

"The Little Sad Thing of Secret Love": A silent cry hidden in the cracks of childhood. Ten-year-old Lin Xu's biggest dream is to get into the TV and become a favored heroine. But the reality trapped her in a broken family and cold accusations - her parents' quarrels, her mother's resentment, and the isolation on campus, like sharp porcelain shards, scratching her illusion of love again and again. "It's not all because of you!" This sentence became a curse in her childhood, but no one told her why her existence itself was an original sin. "A Little Sad Thing of Secret Love" uses delicate and almost painful writing to dissect a girl's growth in denial and loneliness. Lin Xu's story hides the shadows of too many people: the grievances of those who were angered, the moments of longing to escape, and the stubbornness of self-redemption through fantasy. The author uses restrained words to weave a gentle net to catch all the childhood that has not been properly placed. When "secret love" becomes a careful exploration of the world, you will find that the saddest thing may be expectations that even you dare not admit. "Life is never like a TV series, but there are always people who live as silent narrators." This book is written for all the children who have ever hidden behind the door and listened to their parents smashing dishes.

Ps: Let me put a patch on it. I personally think that 500,000 words and 1,000,000 words are actually not too small. I don't know what is close to life, but what I choose here is the content, as well as some personal subjective opinions. Settings and stuff are just what the plot needs. The contents of 1 and 2 are quite close to life, but they seem to be not long enough (1 is still being serialized, and 2 is 500,000 words). Then, 2, 3, and 4. Emmmmmmm Except for the setting, everything is close to life, but the setting, the gender transfer to myself in the parallel world, the yandere bt and explosive power. Not too close. (I think the yandere setting is okay, because the power of love is infinite, so it's all about bonds and friendships.) Finally, as for the conditions for recommending books, for example, 5, I think it is not close to life, but closer to one's ideal spiritual world (state) of life, right? Wanton, publicity, excellence, dazzling, excellent mental state without losing some small flaws (just astringent, because it is closer to readers and netizens), and in the life of high school students, especially the third year of high school, it is quite impossible. After all, this is China. Therefore, traits such as abstraction, heartthrobs (succubi), social cows, and learning to grow or shorten legs, as well as some attractive traits, characteristics, and backgrounds, actually basically do not exist. To put it bluntly, I personally think it is not enough for life and not realistic enough. (No objection, this book is still very well written) In fact, I feel that what I said is weird but I am too lazy to clarify it. Anyway, I basically just wrote it for myself to read, so I can think about life.
