I originally thought the book would go premium on Friday, so I could save up a few chapters. But then my editor suddenly notified me this morning, and I was completely blindsided.
I'm also surprised that this book has made it all the way to the fourth round of recommendations.
Because I failed the very first trial.
I had to write without any official exposure until 200,000 words, and I've come this far from a second-chance revival round. For that, I must thank all of you for your continuous support.
I've carefully read every single comment from every reader.
I'm an author who listens to advice.
Whenever more than one person raises the same point, I immediately take it seriously and make corrections.
...
Because the book's performance was poor in the early stages, I continuously cut subplots from the outline to speed up the pacing.
The book has been out for 57 days, and I've written nearly 300,000 words.
