story of my life who just wanna to live in this cruel world....




Sorry for bad writing and language because im just  bad in english.

I'm not native English. This writing is only to study like memorizing English words or English writing. I try to smooth the story but the limit will exist.

Some of the authors on Webnovels were inspired to write their own stories after reading the works of famous authors. Perhaps some of them believed that they could do a better job. Some of them ran out of things to read, so they decided to write the "story" that they want to read. While others… just want to write a story that they think will be popular to the readers.

Ironically, the stories that they had written also inspired other readers to write their own stories as well. Hopefully, this cycle will never end. So that the future generations will be able to read new and exciting stories that will show them a world filled with sword, magic, cultivation, and Lo--

--------------------------------

Xandarx: There's a reason for them to be famous as they have their style

Zenith: lol.

Xandarx: You can see it from their work, it's true. Like their character has embedded into the book. This is what make them different I think.

Zenith: I know. But not everyone is as great as you show them to be. They learn from their previous works While we are still struggling to finish one.

Xandarx: Yeah, I know.

Zenith: They move on and get better that's where the difference lies. If you see any CN author who made it big, you can see that they had their share of experience before getting there, or for that matter, any author in the Western world.

Murakami: Not necessarily publishing houses only accept works they think will sell.

Zenith: The ones who get it big the first time are rare.

Murakami: So you might not see how they built up to their debut novel. Authors can have 15-20 scrapped novels b4 they debut, and the public don't get to read a single one.

Reili: Yikes.

Xandarx: Yeah.

Zenith: That doesn't make the author lose his experience of writing those scrapped novels that's the point I was making.

Murakami: But it also means that it's more like hit and miss.

Reili: True because they don't get the feedback from fans.

Murakami: They get limited feedback from an agent/editor who doesn't want to read their work.

Zenith: Yeah, but it surely is better than nothing.

Murakami: And they're left with a bunch of abstract and vague advice that they have no idea how to implement.

Reili: If they don't enjoy it, the feedback won't be as insightful.

Zenith: They can learn from their mistakes from reading their own works.

Reili: Well…

Zenith: If possible, from platforms.

Murakami: If they knew how to do that they'd fix it and publish it.

Reili: It would make the process easier if someone who enjoys the book to give them better feedback.

Zenith: It's called rewriting from scratch, and it takes a tonne of time if the author feels more interested in some other idea of his, he would do that.

Reili: I suppose so since the author being inspired will bring his book along.

VKBoy: If the ones giving review are professional editors, then they don't necessarily have to have read your work with immersion because their suggestions will still likely cover the basic flaws that amateurish writers usually make.

Reili: Point taken.

Zenith: Yeah.

Murakami: @VKBoy if they spot those errors they'll put down the manuscript after the first page

Reili: Then again, its a little bit like movie critics. They may hate the movie, but fans love it.

Zenith: Yeah.

Murakami: And then send a reply saying, "Don't send in another manuscript until you learn how to write properly."

Zenith: Professionals in the said field prefer not taking risks. Especially in movies, but books, you can keep trying.

VKBoy: Well, if there are errors in the first page itself, that's a whole different thing, lol.

Reili: True.

Murakami: No, but a good editor can tell the writing quality from just the first page even if you've crafted it perfectly, they can just tell that the rest will be shit.

Reili: You have to also take into account of one punch man. The original comic looks terrible, but the redraw made it amazing.

Zenith: That's smartness of the creator.

VKBoy: Well, in one punch man's case, it got attention from the companies after it got popular in the online communities.

Reili: So a persons writing and grammar may be terrible, but with a little editing, the story itself could be amazing.

Zenith: You can let the editor do the Shi*t and focus on your story, It works.

Overlord Venus: Yeah, solo leveling is a good example. The story is bland.

Reili: But it would also help if the author re-reads the edit to make sure the essence of their story is still there.

HavenlyJeep: Essence and core backbone.

Zenith: @Reili It depends on what the author wants, and how much work he is willing to put in.

Reili: @Zenith true.

VKBoy: Of course, some editors just butcher the style of the author.

Reili: Same but honestly I just use Grammarly and the read aloud function in word to make sure the chapter makes sense.

Zenith: You can learn about writing, grammar, editing if you truly want. It is just the question of, would you?

Reili: I'm more into thinking up ideas and writing them than editing.

VKBoy: Editing is also writing, mate. Rewriting is where real writing lies.

Zenith: It's a skill in writing a story, but your choice.

Reili: Point taken.

Murakami: You can't be a writer without being an editor.

Zenith: Editing it yourself can help you keep the heart of the story.

Reili: That being said, the more I write, the better my basic grammar became.

Zenith: You will keep the feels right.

Reili: Editing is now part of the process.

Zenith: And not make it just sound or look better, you give what the story wants
And that is a great thing.

Reili: Creative freedom.

Zenith: I want to learn grammar and revise what I learned.

VKBoy: @Zenith Learning grammar will take years, so take it slow and steady. That way, memories stick with you for longer times.

Reili: I do read mtl sometimes since I can't wait for chaps, but then I find myself reading in broken English and must stop.

Murakami: I'd like to correct that statement VKBoy. Learning grammar is easy
learning "usage" is hard.

VKBoy: lol, if you read mtl, your IQ drops. Believe me, this can affect a person's writing skill in the long run.

Reili: Definitely, which is why I stopped.

Author's Notes

I'm sure you've read this a few times in the previous chapters, but I had been reading MTL chapters for the past few years. I usually read "Completed" stories, and most of them are around 2-4k chapters each. Of course, I read the translated chapters first. After I reach the latest translated chapter, I will immediately jump to *cough* Google Translate.

Yeah~ I know. Reading chapters through Google Translate was the most…epic mistake I did in the past. I've finished World Defying Dan God, Battle Through the Heavens uhh…and a few more novels using Google Translate.

In the later years, I discovered lnmtl.com, which gave me a better translation (at least the names of the characters are not written like Cloud Che instead of Yun Che (Against the Gods). 

To be perfectly honest, If I didn't start writing, I would have continued to read these machine translated chapters even now. Reading MTL works if English is not your first language.

This is something that those with English as their main language will scoff at. However, for those who just want to read. As in reading something without worrying about anything else, then they won't care even if it's a machine translated chapter. As long as they will be able to read the NEXT chapter, then it's all good.

This is also the reason why I admire translators. If not for them, these stories that we are not aware of will not be able to grace us with their presence. I would like to thank the translators of my favorite novels like Lord of Mysteries, Release that Witch, Against the Gods, Cultivation Chatgroup, Second Coming of Avarice, and so many other titles that I won't be able to list here.

To my beloved readers, if there will come a time when you feel like writing a story of your own and you're reading machine translated chapters, please stop now. I'm saying this for your own good. 

I understand how you feel. Believe me I do, but for the sake of the story you're going to write in the future, heed my advice. Stop now, while you still have the chance. Learning how to write from scratch with broken English is a painful process.

Then again, if you find an editor who is a masochist, consider yourself lucky. Let them clean up your mess for you, so you can focus on writing your story, and learn the art of writing while you write.

P.S The Cover Drawing is not mine. I just find it nice so I used it. Full credits go to the owner.

The middle-aged man is none other than the second male lead father, Fan Guo Wang. Fan Guo Wang was worried because lately there hadn't been any message sent by his beloved son, Fan Guo Zi.

So he sent his most talented daughter, Fan Xue Qi who was already in apprentice stage 1 star level despite her young age, 15 years old to go check on his son condition.

The girl nodded her head excitedly as she said "Don't worry father! I'll check on big bro condition for you!" after that she said another few reassuring words before setting off with 2 family elders. 

These elders she brought with her are both in their old age, 70 years old but they strength couldn't be underestimated. Both of them are in saint stage 3 stars level!

The three of them set off immediately and somehow arrived in Qiu Country on the day of the translated script auction.

The three of them participate in the auction but didn't manage to buy any scripts. When the auction end, Fan Xue Qi accidentaly met Meng Yue Ming and the two of them quickly became good friends.

These events were all recorded and went precisely the same with the story plot but Li Shi Ying didn't find anything wrong with it. It's just the female lead having one more follower around, what's the big problem? 

Li Shi Ying indeed didn't pay attention to these series of event because she didn't know that Fan Guo Zi was killed by Long Ao Zhen. In the story plot, Fan Xue Qi came to Qiu Country in order to reunited with her brother. 

Now the plot had changed slightly, Fan Xue Qi came to Qiu Country to check on her brother who had been without news for 1 week.

The rest of the event flow naturally making Fan Xue Qi met the female lead as per the right story plot. Only...what Shi Ying didn't know is that she will sooner or later face a big trouble that wasn't supposed to happen in the story plot.

Starting from this point, Li Shi Ying slowly but sure unconsciously change many events in the original story plot until it was too late to fix the plot.

-----------------------------------------------

Fan Xue Qi had been investigating news regarding her brother so when she heard from Meng Yue Ming that his brother was killed and burnt into ash, she desperately searched for clue to her brother murderer.

Finally after around 1 month searching for clue, she heard from her best friend, Meng Yue Ming that her brother got killed the day after he kidnapped a certain boy.

The boy was wearing a fox mask and he was spotted entering a normal-looking inn in the capital city.

Fan Xue Qi quickly went to the named inn to ask for the boy whereabout.

The day Fan Xue Qi decided to go checking the inn, was the afternoon after Long Ao Zhen depart from the inn, going back to the higher realm.

Morning 7 a.m in the inn, few hours before Fan Xue Qi arrival.

Li Shi Ying still didn't know that right after her 'brother', Long Ao Zhen departure, trouble would came so quickly to find her. It was even the trouble made by her 'brother'!!! 

Li Shi Ying was currently in the middle of doing something fun. She was bored with reading scripts all day so she decide to doodle around with a paper.

Li Shi Ying happily wrote few random words in english with a carcoal pen on her hand. She wrote word like 'love', 'sad' etc. So far her writing describe human feelings. But she also slipped few words like 'fire', 'water' and other elements.

The paper was cut into several pieces and Li Shi Ying wrote one word on each piece. She was going to do a guessing game or something like that with Jiu Wei later.

She then stacked the paper on the corner of the table while writing another words in English on other papers.

When she was writing, unknown to her, the words she wrote on the paper she stack, slowly glow in faint purple light. 

The word 'love' was the first one glowing in purple light but...nothing happen. Other word like 'sad' and 'angry' also glow in purple light but it was the same as the word 'love', nothing happen. 

The words only glow in purple light and nothing more. Li Shi Ying noticed this but she ignored it. She thought it must be like that because she wrote the word in english which is a God language.

Those lights must be an after effect of the word she wrote in english. 

All the words she wrote slowly glowed in faint purple light just like the previous words but still nothing strange happened. Li Shi Ying was still happily writing more words and she didn't notice that a word 'fire' was also now glowing with purple light.

But....this word now didn't merely glow in purple light! Something really incredible happened after the word 'fire' glowed with purple light!

COMPLETED SERIES

I'll find you even if we are worlds apart -Long Ao Zhen 

---------
Transmigrated into a trash body of general's daughter as female lead? Peh! Too mainstream! Transmigrated to be a villainess? Common! What about transmigrating and ending up as cannon fodder? Have read it before! 

From that many options to transmigrate how could she, Li Shi Ying a very ordinary English department college student, suddenly wake up in the crippled body of the female lead's ex-maidservant?! Heaven, this is too unfair! 

In this world where only the strong are respected, she can't cultivate? No problem! Dozens of high-rank spiritual beasts fight over protecting her! 

Beast Tamers are rare? Hmph! The beast language is her hometown language! 

Can't be an alchemist or array master? Who cares? She could just become a translator! Without a translator, all those rare jobs wouldn't even exist! 

Watch how she rules over the world without having a single bit of cultivation energy in her body! 

But, can someone please tell her how she suddenly became the Dragon Prince's wife? Momma, she wanna cry!!! 

This is a perfect story for those who are bored with the usual cultivation novel. 

Warning: Smut scene in chapters 7-9!! If you don't want to read it, just skip those chapters. 

If you like to read perfect grammar then this book might not be your cup of tea, but I'm still learning. So, it will become better in later chapters.

Big thanks to my editors: Overlord_venus, Kuma, DarkAngel84

Proofreader: Lilian

I am a 13 year old who loves reading .I thought that I cold give a try in writing and here I am .Never expected anyone to read my book and Thank you to all who read it.I live in India so we have English as our first language so there won't be many grammatical mistakes.We have compulsory creative writing in English so all of us are used to writing lame stories.I know currently nothing much is happening in the story but I can assure that by the weekend the story will get interesting.

what if, your marriage was not your own choice

TL;DR

Health was bad. Metal strength was lacking. I took a month off; am back now.

Will start posting the first weekday of February.

Please look forward to more adventures in the lands of Deagoth and beyond.

If you would like a detailed explanation, and words from the black hole I have as a heart, read down below.

Until next time!

This post will be deleted Monday.

*******

Voidmirage, the Blind Idiot God here!

I am still among those that can be considered alive.

I apologize for taking this past month off, but it was rather necessary, though I am completely at fault for not posting such information in advance or during. It's rather shameful to post it after the fact and apologize.

I've been having health problems, which some of you may have noticed me making comment in some of my post-chapter author notes.

Besides my physical health, there is also the strain on my mental health as well.

Those that know me on my discord server, already know this information. I'm quite active there, believe it or not, haha.

As for this next part, not until today did I reveal my plans for my novels or writing in general. During this month, I deliberated on if I should or wanted to continue writing.

One has to know that I'm not an English major, even if English is my first language, I am not well versed in its arts. Something I'm sure most of you, my readers, can tell from my writing. Over the last year and a half, I've worked very hard on improving my grammar and sentence structures while retaining my original writing style. (What I consider my writing style.)

I sincerely appreciate each and every reader that has pointed out any grammar errors or syntax issues. While I cringe at every mistake, it is only acknowledging those mistakes, and correcting them, did I get better. Especially "Would have" and "Would of." In my part of the world, the dialect people speak with "Would of." Surprised Pikachu face when I realized how wrong that was!!! Hahahaha!

But there is that...

Why did I start writing?

Have you ever read anything so bad, that you went... "Fuck it! I can do better than this!"

That's why I started writing. I wanted to write a story I wanted to read, and I did. WU, Wholly Undead, is a story I like. In fact, I wish it would write itself, so I could just read! Hahaha!

But writing is a large time sink. Very large. The plotting, the planning, the creation, the research, and then the actual writing. It's very tedious. I respect authors with thousands of chapters. While the novel's plot might not be to my liking, you have my respect that you were able to write that much, and much respect to translators of non-English novels for the same reasons!!!

I read every comment and every review, so know, that I see them if you post them! Haha, tfw the Readers tell you you're a &*#&$#@, just because they know you're going to read it... I'll Oof in advance!

Oof!

As you read above, I decided to continue.

I mean... After some really deep thought and possible soul searching, it would be a real dick move to not finish at least this novel... And I have ALOT of plot left... And when I say A LOT, I mean something like 500 to 700 more chapters... I have no idea when I'll finish... Hmmm... Why are my eyes sweating??? Strange.

At any rate, there were many people on my discord that supported me, and the four that support me on my *******, and those that are the silent supporters.

People from my ******* and Discord such as,

Blackeyes and Kouhai, the cutest and smartest couple that has ever existed, and my biggest fans! If I have a heart, they may have it!

Khalaenas, my cutest discord trap waifu (It's a long discord story...) Thank you, truely.

Plowbat, fellow author, shameless plug for his novel, Check out "The Forest Spirit who sought the Gods" That is posted on Webnovel.com! Oakbuddy is the cutest MC ever.

Beefy, who has been really busy lately, but he's been a good friend to talk to, and fun to joke with!

LordCommunism, who is bent on bringing the next communistic revolution. Good luck, Comrade! Totally a funny guy to joke with, as well.

Kraken, the best poison mixer this side of the pacific ocean! best not to ask too many questions here. Great guy, great stories, has great advice, lovable all around.

Salty Panda, the saltiest of all pandas. Make no mistake about it. Salt bae has nothing on him. Mean as fuck to his core, but I value his opinion, and he's smart... A bit too smart for his own good. His motto is the Beautiful and Majestic Beast. Yeah... But know that he's the most active on discord! Takes his discord family more serious than he does the novel... Which I honestly don't think he even likes anymore, LMAO!

Insert_Name aka Anonymous, He's just like some random penguin dude that's super chill. We have a lot of shit-talking on the server, and he's the straight man in every joke! Great guy.

MARKZ137, silent, stoic, and supportive. Really no other words need to be said.

PreownedFIN, the smartest Finnish man I know! Though, I don't know many, Ha~! Still, while his humor is a bit out there, it's still always something new!

Luther. T, Silent, Supporter, Patron... nuff said.

Bulbous aka Herracross, know that he was the first to come to the Discord server to ask about Coach Guy. In his honor, I named the Coach Guy after him... HERRAclitus CROSSett! Yeah.

LordDao aka LordTouchMe, use to be much more active but is super busy now as well... Still a good chap! He's also a super fan of the Coach Guy.

My other Patrons, Thank you.

And, I'd also like to thank a few silent fans as well... Noticing your activity the past month, even when I didn't post touched that part of the black hole in my chest...

troudenez, Max_zero1, the_Mojo_man, kinggaming, and TheReaver666... Just to name a few, while there are many more, these are the ones I actively saw.

But again, I plan to continue, because of your support.

I'm not here to beg for anyone to join *******, which would be super pimp if you did, but I'm not here for that. I'm not here for a pity party, or for some type of worship... Which if you want, I am the Blind Idiot God... You can worship if you want... I might sleep through it though, HAHAHAHA!

I'm just giving you an update on why there haven't been chapters, and to know I will be continuing. I have a number of side stories that I write a chapter or two when I get bogged down in WU. 

Orc Calamity, A story where a guy named Phil is treated like crap by his human peers finds out later he just might be an orc and must adapt to a new life as one.

24 chapters, so far...

Nightmare without Fear, A story where your greatest fears become monsters. Conquer the monster of your fears and use them to fight others in multiverse tournaments a la pokemon on a bad acid trip. Where your fear monsters are as likely to eat you as they are to kill your enemies, always staying one step ahead of them, least you do become their food.

8 Chapters, so far...

Divine Inferno, A story of an alternate earth/history where mankind discovered cultivation instead of nuclear weapons. This cultivation is called "Angelhood" and these man turned angels took over the world. The man named Thane is kidnapped/bribed to become a new cultivator discovered as "Demonhood" by a shady af organization called "The Four Corners."

1 chapter, so far...

If anyone in the comments expresses interest I might link them.

Take care, and see you in the next chapter Monday!

Jack finds himself the ruler of an undead kingdom. Furthermore, he is The Holy Witch King, an undead with Holy powers? What's a bonehead to do?

*******
Revised Synopsis:

Please skip the first 6 chapters (anything marked under Volume 0: Auxiliary Volume). These are reference chapters and will be boring and contain a lot of spoilers - they are only meant for readers who need to check up something later on.

===================
Hi Readers,

I wasn't always an avid reader. My love for books started when I was 13 years old. I was a tomboy sent to a really posh girls-only boarding school. Needless to say, I ended up with a lot of detention, 3 hours of detention, meant 3 hours of twiddling my thumbs, bored out of mind.

Lucky for me, a roommate gave me a book to pass the time, it was one of those old Mills & Boons cheesy romance novels. Reading made my detention pass in a blink of an eye. A year later I was hooked.

I think most avid readers have an idea about writing a novel, especially when you come across a horrible story, you always think to yourself I could have written something better.

Well, I was one of those, but coming up with a plot is a lot easier than actually sitting down to write a novel. For over 20 years I have had this little dream to write a novel, but life got in the way. Working 12 - 16 hours a day 6 - 7 days a week, made that dream fade away.

Every now and then it would rear its head, I would daydream about it sadly sigh, and get back to being a single mom.

Long story short, 2018 was a horrible year for me, a lot of things happened and at the end of 2018, I came to realize that life is too short, we spend so much of our time just trying to survive that we forget that we are actually meant to live our lives, it was with this realization that I decided to follow my dreams and try to make them come true.

We are really lucky to live in a world today, where platforms like Webnovel exists, so aspiring authors can get their creative work published.

I would also like to warn my readers upfront, while English is my home language, it was one of my worst subjects at schools — I was always weak with languages, and to someone who had to take four compulsory languages (English, Afrikaans, Latin & Xhosa) at school — well you can imagine my horror. I was always more inclined to mathematics and the sciences. I think if my English was still alive and he knew that I was trying to write a novel, he most likely would fall over in a dead faint. So please forgive any mistakes you do find. 

I hope that you will enjoy this reading this story, as much as I am enjoying writing it.

Please don't be shy — I would love to hear back from you in the comment section, and if you have time please do leave a review.

I do welcome feedback and constructive criticism, after all, it is only by someone willing to point out our mistakes that we will learn.

Sincerely,

DJ Rogue

Note: I don't have an editor, so I would like to apologize for any errors that you may come across, I will review my own work and correct any errors that I do find.

PS: I am South African so I was raised with British English, I have made an effort to use Americanized English (xD so you might have both spellings in the book)

Some argue that various works by authors that do not meet the requirement of fine grammar and spelling are rubbish. Here, each person has his own opinion, and let him stick to it and impose his opinion on others as the ultimate truth, it speaks only of ignorance of life. It is diverse.

Is the work of authors with poor grammar garbage? In my opinion, no. Each author tells his story, passed through his worldview, attitude, understanding of life, his experience and thoughts about the world. It's always interesting for me to read this personally.

I'm a bibliophile, I read a lot of classic works of art, Tomass and Gernih Mana, Feuchtwanger, Mark Twain, Stvenson, Romain Roland, Galsworthy, Tolstoy and all his volumes and there are about 19 of them! I didn't read Dostoevsky, I didn't like him. But Azek Azimov, Ursuda Le Guin, Tolkien, Kipling, Conandoyle, Louis Besenar and others I read with pleasure. Li Bo, the poetry is gorgeous. Novels of feudal and late feudal China, Japan, Korea. Novels and novels by Chinese prose writers of the early 20s and 80-90s of the 20th century.

In general, I read about 10,000 books. Fiction, fantasy, poetry, historical novels, ballads, myths and legends.

After that I became interested in reading historical documentaries - about the history of the Silk Road, Archeology, History, Ethnography, Etymology, the Big Game, the story of the confrontation of imperial intelligence in the vast regions of the Silk Road.

I read about 550 books, from the 16th to the beginning of the 21st century.

I have some kind of base for evaluating short stories and novels.

Sometimes works written flawlessly in terms of grammar, alas ... they are completely devoid of meaning, they are not interesting, they do not have fascinating stories, conclusions, experience, thoughts. But work with poor grammar, on the contrary, have unique information. Of course, not all works, but there are some.

Therefore, when assessing the creativity of another person, the author, being so categorical in evaluations, says only that you have a maximalist who still knows life poorly. This is the right of choice, each person, and to impose a choice on another according to my preferences, I consider this not comme il faut. Well, here everyone has a point of view.

In fact, this is an eternal question - what is more important? Beautiful text form or good content? Bestsellers are those works that combine good text and good content.

I am the author myself. But not a professional writer, but a techie. I don't know much about composition, about the intricacies of writing good text. But I have a very interesting content. Is my story garbage? I do not think so? Do I respect the reader? Sure. But writing is better so far I can't. Nevertheless, I have my own circle - readers who are interested in my work. There are not hundreds or thousands of people, but a couple of dozen will be typed.

I write in the genre - a documentary historical fiction, there are many interesting facts about the Silk Road with which I wanted to share. If I were waiting for the moment when I could write well in terms of English grammar ... I would not be able to share it now ... maybe in a couple of years ... and still I would not be able to write like this they write - people from English-speaking countries. This is a favorite topic of native speakers to reproach those who learn this language in their ignorance of the intricacies of the language they learn, grammar and spelling errors ... As we say, the dog barks, the caravan goes on. That happens.

English is the world language of communication. Moreover, for me it is the third language. I speak English well, but my grammar is lame. I admit it. Yes, I need to teach her, but I don't think I can write in perfect English.

The overall result - write as you can, share your thoughts, in the era of information, the content itself is important and not its form. One way or another, it can help others, they can come to a new thought and write a story about your topic that you would like to read yourself!


As they say in the East - do good and throw it into the water, a person will not know, the fish will know!

Peace and prosperity!

Thoughts of why and why stories are written.

All the same English, he has not improved in 18 days.

I'll figure something out, try to correct the text.

---------------------------------------------------------
This is a work of art. Any resemblance to real people or real events is purely coincidental.

I originally had a simple and original idea. Dara gains magical ability. This ability gives him opportunities:

- to anticipate events (the author also succeeds in this, sometimes, you think, here is this man coming, you look out the window, he really goes)

- to understand a foreign language (this idea arose, after reading the reviews, when English-speakers from Europe, USA, Britain, Canada, Australia, New Zealand were not satisfied with the level of English grammar, those who have English, the second or even the third language. And so , we turn on the magical ability to say for a week and you write and speak correctly)

- be able to bargain and covertly control the consciousness of the audience by achieving the goal set by the main character ...

These were the main features. BUT ... after reading the historical materials about the "tags" that were issued in the TAN empire for their vassal territories ... these abilities have increased ... which somewhat puzzles me.

In general, the idea to write a short story appeared that I wanted to share extensive material on the history of the Silk Road. new directions in farming, the ecological direction of farming development, healthy cooking, for which you need to use pure products without preservatives, a combination of Chinese cuisine with the concept of hot, cold and neutral products and Persian healing cooking, where each product has its own healing properties, and in combination with others it strengthens or weakens them.

I repeat a lot of material, it is at least 450 books of 18-19 and mid-20th century. Sometimes there are too many ideas, you start writing one, you don't finish it, and you start writing another.

Excessive detailing ... but on the other hand, as without details, in them the very meaning is ????!

...

The author wanted to write an original novel, without reymeks and strong borrowings on similar topics - agriculture, farming, magic, cooking, systems ... and do without cultivation ...

As soon as the "cultivation" comes across in a good novelty, then write, it's gone. A funny comedy that turns into humor turns into a dull story with a description of these techniques, which is not particularly pulling to read the rest of the story.

Let there be an omnipotent system! But she will not dictate her requirements - to those who use this system.

.....

As is usual in Asia, and in particular in the East ... the families are large, if not a clan, then a large community. At least 30 close relatives. And so if you raise all relatives close and not very, then you can get from 400 to a couple of thousand people. And it can be scattered not only in the prefectures of one country, but also in the countries themselves. Such as the USA, Germany, Australia, New Zealand, Sweden, Canada, Russia, Finland, Saudi Arabia, Jordan, the United Arab Emirates, Iran, Britain ... About and perhaps Saint Denis ...

....

And large families are not clans. In the clans there is terror, tyranny, factional struggle, conspiracies, intrigues, betrayals, deception, merging information to a competitor, and sometimes the use of "active measures". Therefore, the author, has focused on a large and friendly family. Although because of this, many minor heroes appeared, they would not be confused now !!!!

Here I would like to introduce romance, liveliness, move away from details ... well, I hope the author will manage to do this ...

If there are any suggestions from readers write.

Respectfully,

P.S. Today, probably it will not be possible to write a new chapter. But tomorrow I will try to write two chapters of 500 or maybe 1000 words each.

The second version. 

Agriculture is a very interesting activity. Like the sale of products. Not to mention the cooking, healing cooking. The development of tourism. 


All this will be in this novel. Perhaps the continuation of the first novel, but not a fact.

What is the story about? The story of a graduate student who decided to become a farmer. He sold his apartment and started to run his business with the money he received. Farm, online shop, farm shop. Decided to sell organic food.

Who is this guy? Former student of the Faculty of History. His relatives are historians and artisans, scientists. Great-grandfather Farmer. Grandfather - oriental sweets manufacturer. His ancestor ... Dara is the hero of another novel "'Jiang' Magic Coin" ...

What happens to him? He finds magic coins that have already become a magic entity, he has an all-powerful system. The main character does not immediately use it ...

Why should I care? It is interesting. But not at once. Not from the first pages, there is interesting historical information, there is an understanding of everyday life, traditions, oriental subtleties of doing business.

Almost reality but in a fantastic wrapper.

Pros - good content, many different historical facts about the Silk Road, Eastern Trade, Household reflections on politics and economics, there are interesting ideas for organizing your own business in tourism and farming.

Cons - bad form, that is, the text of the novel is rough, grammar and syntax is lame. There are mistakes.

Overall assessment of the story if to be objective:

Writing Quality - 2 stars
Stability of Updates - 4 stars (3-4 times per week from 500 to 3000 words for one chapter)

Story Development - 4 stars
Character Design - 3 stars
World Background - 3 stars

Overall result: Who wants to learn new things about farming and about the world after the Cold War, who is interested in the first place content, can be sure that he/she will not waste his/her time in vain.

Whoever likes the good form of the syllable, he/she can immediately leave, having pulled his hat, striking his/her horse sideways with spurs, plunge into the depths of the prairie.


Tags - Farming, Cooking, Health, Folk Medicine, Magic, History


-----------------------------
This is a work of art. Any resemblance to real people or real events is purely coincidental.

Just a heads up, I will delete all my chapters from Webnovel at the end of this month.  So hopefully, everyone who wanted to read the ending of "Change" has had a chance.  I didn't have an editor for Volume 3, so it may be choppy.

Also, I have given up on translating.  It's not that I can't write in Japanese nor English.  In fact, when I compose in both languages, I have no problems.  The biggest problem is expressing the words from one language to another.  It's an entirely different skill.

For instance, "Dakishimetai" is often translated as "want to hold" or "want to hug" in English, but in fact this Japanese word carries more meaning to it.  What is often untranslated is that it also means to "want to hold someone and protect them from their own pain, self-doubt and suffering."  Or it can attach the meaning of "wanting to hug someone and not wanting to let go."

This is why translating is so difficult.  And then the tone, the language and the way characters express themselves don't come through too well.  I know Yuki (former editor) constantly complained about Jingshu's character, where Jingshu was very whiny, while acting cute.  This was very difficult for me to translate into English.

Although, I won't translate my own work anymore, but it was certainly a learning experience.  :)  

Just also wanted to say that some things were left untranslated as I didn't know or have the word choice in English to explain it.

For clarification, Zhang Jun gave up on his promise to his father because he was shocked by Zhang Hua's revelations, which made him realize how insane his father was by the things his father did in order to continue the Zoubek bloodline.  Also, Zhang Jun rescued his sister (can't remember if I translated that part) but she and Min Beizheng end up together.  So the bloodline could directly pass down through her.

And if you haven't figured it out, Jun became a god and spent the rest of his life fulfilling Jinying's wish to be a goddess.  

People also felt Yangning's character was controversial.  On one side, there were fans who liked his character.  On the other side, were fans who hated him.  But I think the monsters in this world are not born, they are made.  And I hope I explained his story well.

Also, my transmigration story should be ready to go.  I will be posting chapter 1 on the other website.  As to why I don't post the website name here is because I don't want "that person" to steal my new story.  In all honesty, I'm not a professional writer.  And my dream isn't to become a writer.  In fact, I hate to write.

I started writing because at that time a friend of mine had broken up with her boyfriend.  She was heartbroken.  In order to fulfill her wish for a happy ending, I wrote a story about her and that exboyfriend.  As she read the development of the plot, she realized she didn't love that boy and was able to let go.  Through the story, she was able to overcome her heartbreak.

Because of that, I had always wanted to heal someone else through my stories.

The story "Change" was written for a male fan of mine, who had been cheated on by his girlfriend.  It was also the first time I wrote a story directed towards male audiences.  Usually, I write for women.

I know some fans want to know why Jingshu was raped.  The answer is because at that time I asked the male fan, "If your girlfriend hadn't cheated on purpose, but she was raped, would you have remained angry with her?"

He didn't have an answer for me.
 
As "Change" progressed, he came to see his own faults.  Everyone asked why the story characters aren't wholly good nor bad and the reason is because no one is perfectly good in real life.

That male fan of mine worked on his relationship with his girlfriend and ended up marrying her.  It has been a year since I've asked him about his relationship.  I often wonder if they are happy now?  That's why I think love, true love is forgiveness, and forgiveness is humanity's pinnacle of compassion.

I have promised myself to stop writing stories to heal others.  Instead, I want to write stories for my own enjoyment.  I guess this is because of 西瓜JUN.  Even when his fans weren't kind and yelled at him for singing certain songs, he still did what he wanted.  When I think about how strong he is, I also want to become that strong.

But I'm still very much a coward.  Someday, when I am brave, I will post on his Weibo account directly and tell him to stay strong, because if not for him my life would not be as happy today.  In other words, 西瓜JUN is the rainbow at the end of a terribly frightening thunderstorm.

By the way, if you haven't listened to his song [西瓜JUN]原创"她（Cyrena）" 我说是夏日限定就是夏日限定, please check it out.  The link is on his Weibo.  :)

Wishing everyone a happy day and thank you for reading.
