Doomsday Pillars

Dear Readers, I am sorry for the late Chapter. Please give me a minute or two to talk about myself. I will delete this Chapter as I release the new Chapter.

Last week was the best ever for Doomsday Pillars, it reached the top 50’s in the ranking. Thank you very much for the support and for voting with the power stones. Within web novel, there’s actually a special rank given to the authors who reached top 50 and it is such an honor being in the top 50 among other thousands of writers. Seeing the numbers on last week, on Monday morning, I burned with passion and motivation and decided to give it my all.

Flashback, 6 months ago, when I first started writing the novel, I was in such stress because of work, Not because I have too much to do, but I was helpless and unable to do anything. I was an entrepreneur with 10+ workers and my business was in a standstill. I accidentally read the web novel competition and decided to try it out casually. Within that week, I wrote a dozen Chapters and I wasn’t expecting to actually win the third place at that time. 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝚠𝕖𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝕖𝚕.𝚌𝗼𝗺

This was when I realized that writing actually refreshes me. Thus, I decided to continue writing the novel. Surprisingly, as I enjoyed it and it also suddenly became a thing between me and my 9 years old daughter. I write and she reads it. (That’s why sometimes I hold back from writing a violent scene or R rated stuff.) Around 3 months ago, the company finally showed more activity and success, suddenly I have 20+ workers and I really needed to put more attention to it. That’s the time when the novel was held for more than two weeks. about 2 months ago.

I really want to write and continue the story; my daughter has been pushing me to write again. So, I decided to start writing again slowly. I wrote a minimum of 5,000 words a week. It wasn’t easy, I wrote in the cars, in-between meetings, I wrote on the train, and I wrote very late at night before sleep. I really want the story to move forward faster, but the work has occupied most of my time.

All the things web novel did to me only made things worse. But despite that, I know the story must go on no matter what. Although my company is currently in a lot of debt, It’s really never about money for me. Rather, it’s the satisfaction that my work is being appreciated. Just last week, the 2000+ power stones vote, I felt very much appreciated and I really thank you for the support.

But in the last few days, I felt like I started chasing votes instead of the story itself. I could feel that the last few Chapters were rushed. When the new arc about Adam starts, I find myself scrapping the draft a couple of times. There are three main objectives that I want to achieve through Adam’s arc, and if I continue writing the way I am right now it will be too long and if I write the other way, the story will lose the depth that I want.

If I didn’t write daily I will sure get less power vote but my main concern is my readers will find it hard to keep pace about the story and easily forget or mix up with the other novel, but I really cannot keep up with the daily Chapter.

Last week what I actually did was, I wrote during my work time, I ended up almost make a big mistake at work, my mind was filled with Alex and his world. I really need to find a way to make this works. I have the content ready for volume 4, now that the world-building almost finished, next volume I can start to focus on Alex himself.

So please be patient with me, the planned is to stock Chapters this week so I can do full 7 days daily next week, hopefully, we can reach top 50 next week, hope for your continuous support. when the top 50 achieved I would have a surprise ready.
