In fact, on the platform of online novels, , there are very few authors who come here specifically for interest, but there are indeed such people, but not many, more of them come here to make money, yes, just to make money. After all, the development of online literature is getting faster and faster, and the market is getting bigger and bigger. It is natural to be able to get a piece of the pie.

Since I am here to make money, it is natural to decide whether to continue writing based on the quality of my results. If the writing is good, then continue writing; if it is average, then stop writing. This is a very real problem.

In fact, in the final analysis, it is not easy to write novels with good results nowadays. No matter what channel it is, there are basically many people writing them, and they follow the same routines over and over again. In this way, after the aesthetic fatigue , naturally the results are very poor, and many novels that were okay in the early stage collapsed directly in the later stage, leading to eunuchs and unfinished stories.
