NOVEL NEXT Book 1: Afterword
Hello everyone, I am the author of this series, Ain’t Fish.
First of all, allow me to express my thanks for everyone’s support. It gave a huge boost of confidence to a new author like me. Frankly, I wasn’t expecting this series could make it this far. After all, my previous work goes down the drain after a mere 20,000 words.
As a newbie, I am still lacking in many areas. The more I thought to myself that I should write better, the more unsatisfactory the outcome became. When I look back to the previous chapters, I feel that it didn’t turn out as good as I hoped it would be.
It’s just like the time when you see an interesting picture, your mind filled with rainbows, but the thing you wrote turned out as plain as a white paper.
However, I’m not afraid of failure.
When I was still at the starting point, I have written a few series, two of them no less.
The first series had 7,000 words but there were only two views.
My second work had 20,000 words and only viewed eleven times.
Then I wrote another two series during my times with SFACG.
The first one had 20,000 words and only had eighty-odd views. That was dropped in a flash.However, this series had reached eight thousand views. Honestly speaking, this is completely unexpected.
But this is also proof that I am constantly improving, right?
What’s scarier than a low starting point is to make no headway, because no matter how low the starting point is, one can always make steady progress. There will come a day when we will eventually catch up to those who are already ahead of us.
My dream is to be able to portray a character I wanted to write with ease one of these days.
From the look of it, I am still far from achieving my dream.
Alright, let’s keep the rant to a minimum and get back on topic.
Lilith is a character I suddenly came up with when I was taking a nap on a certain day. She has experienced many unfortunate events in the past and could only rely on Eight-Grade Syndrome to protect herself. However, she still managed to maintain her kindheartedness despite all odds.
Under that kind of circumstance, she was transported to another world and met dragons with all kinds of eccentric attitudes, such as a mother with daughter-con, the loyal dog Akarin, the meat sculptor, and Fenice who licked the Eternal Ice. This gave her second life a sense of belonging.
This was also a chance for her to change herself.
As Lilith’s journey began, she will meet more eccentric characters and eventually start her own harem.
As for whether she would succeed or not… that’s a different story.
The next volume will be the first step of Lilith’s journey towards the St. Caroline Academy.
Just what kind of encounter and adventure awaits her on the road? Let us wait and see.
Since we are finally entering the first part of the plot, it will definitely take more time to plan out everything. Therefore I will shamelessly consider this afterword as filler. I hope everyone can forgive me for this.
However, this is my promise to you all; the next volume will definitely be better than the last, I will write with more passion than ever.
Then I will be even more shameless here to ask you all to bookmark and like this work…
Let’s meet again in the next volume, and I wish that y’all have a wonderful and interesting life like the characters in this book.
P.S. Cough cough, a little advertisement below:
To be honest, due to a lack of experience, this series had a few rough parts at the beginning of volume two. Everyone could probably tell from my comment sections and reviews already.
It will become better in the latter parts of the volume.
However, due to a certain reason, the writing style after that will change slightly. It will not be pure NEET language anymore.
Therefore, readers who like to read NEET language, I will recommend my new work to you all 《The World is Still on the Brink of Destruction Today》.
Pure NEET language from beginning to end.
Naturally, please continue to follow the Dragon Princess series. It’s still not too late to drop it if you really don’t like it later on.
Thank you for your support, everyone. 、(๑❛ᴗ❛๑)
