After a summer vacation, I finally put this book on the shelf.

I do have a lot of free time during the holidays after college, and I can barely do anything like coding with peace of mind.

It's just that in the initial planning, I planned to put it on the shelves after completing "The Unknown Boy". However, the plan could not keep up with the changes. There was a problem with the length of the "Unknown Boy" when I was conceived, and my family was also urging me.

So I put it on the shelves earlier (thank you again for the editor’s tolerance).

The original title of this book was "The Epic of Sword and Fire", and I was originally satisfied with it. However, when my friends found out about it, they immediately complained and said that the title would make people jump out of the book when they heard it.

Oh well!

I changed the title of the book to "The Second Judgment".

Changing the title of the book didn't work. When I signed the contract, .asxs.com specially made a cover for my novel (every signed work has this benefit). I was very satisfied with the cover, but after I changed the name, the cover said "Sword and

The cover with six large characters "Epic of Fire" is not applicable.

After asking behind the scenes, I found out that I had to make a new cover myself. After all, the benefits were gone after I signed the contract and used them up...

Ha, the big guys in the team who designed covers for tens of millions of asxs novels really worked hard.

Because now the cover of "The Second Trial" is made by myself. Only when you really want to make a good cover will you understand how difficult it is.

As the author himself, he naturally has the deepest understanding of the book, so the cover cannot be careless.

I have no painting skills myself, so I can only find suitable or satisfactory materials among tens of millions of online materials.

The original picture on the current cover is one of the hundreds of high-definition wallpapers I collected before. If the original author has any objections, I will make changes.

The main picture on the cover seems to be a female character from Overwatch. The source of the original picture is unknown. But the style is so appropriate that I couldn’t help but use it.

Well, having said all that, it’s not impossible for me to seek help from a professional cover production team.

It's just... Xiaoqiu, I'm poor!

I have been drinking the northwest wind since I started writing this article.

Well, it can’t be so absolute.

Thanks to book friend Ran Konggui (I really appreciate her) for the reward, and book friends such as Bing Touch and Shen Zui Wukong for their recommendation votes.

At the same time, I would also like to thank my father for his comments after my chapters. Well, it is really not easy for him to read my son's novels in his busy schedule.

Although "The Second Judgment" still has poor results so far, there are still some people who silently support me behind the scenes.

I'm really grateful for this!

This reminds me of the poisonous milk that the editor-in-chief gave to all the authors during the New Year: "Happy New Year, everyone, work hard to become gods. After all, if you don't get results, you won't be able to write for a few more years...drink this bowl of New Year's poisonous chicken soup~"

This sentence was said half-jokingly, but the content was not a joke.

Indeed, the time to realize the dream of being a writer is very short.

In other words, when most people chase their dreams, they find that their feet have taken root and they can only spend their lives standing in a position they don't want to stay in.

Even if you are lucky enough to land in your dream career.

If your dream career is not enough to support your family, you cannot say that you have fulfilled your dream.

Without achievements, you can only give up this dream and pursue something more realistic.

Novel without success will only be eliminated by the industry. An author who has failed time and time again, no matter how persistent he is, must finally consider his new way out.

There is a reason why commercial creations are widespread.

The output of commercialized novels has far exceeded that of the past, and there are so many new and promising authors.

Xiaoqiu, I don’t have much capital to say that I will definitely be able to gain a foothold in this increasingly competitive field.

However, if you haven’t even chased your dreams wantonly, how can you dare to say that you have a dream?

This time I put it on the shelves just to test the waters.

I want to know if I can pursue this dream of being a writer that has tempted me and troubled me for a long time.

Even if I fail, I won't regret it.

There is a difference between the failure of trying hard and the failure of giving up directly.

The ending here seems to be the same, but you have paid for it after all.

Then you will definitely gain something, even if it is not satisfactory, it cannot be ignored.

Everyone says: "With every gain, there must be a loss."

But I always want to add another sentence: "Every loss must be a gain."

Even if you don't appreciate this reward, don't forget that it is also the result of your hard work.

It's just that many people no longer have the capital to pursue their dreams. They have already started a family and started a business, and are extremely busy every day. After working hard day and night, they no longer have the legs to pursue their dreams.

There is an inspirational saying: "When you fall, get up again."

But if a frail old man falls, can he get up on his own?

If you really don’t have time to pursue your dreams, then you won’t be able to try to fulfill your dreams even if you have the intention.

However, I am still young and young, and I still have the time and energy. In addition, I still have enough enthusiasm.

Therefore, Xiaoqiu’s last comment here is:
Chapter completed!
