Two consecutive updates have been posted.
The book has been featured on the Three Rivers recommendation list, and it has surpassed 100,000 words. It's been a tough journey, and I'm feeling very emotional, so I really want to share my thoughts.
The performance of "The Boundless Path of Power" hasn't been great, but many of my long-time readers have been very supportive. You can see this from the three Alliance Leaders, two Sect Masters, two Protectors, and several Hall Masters, as well as other supporters. Even before "Tide of the Times" went VIP, it didn't receive such steadfast support, which deeply moved me.
I think writing political novels might be a bit different from other authors. I want to write something new, something that reflects my inner thoughts and feelings. Purely showing off, humiliating others, or the cliché of a wolf in sheep's clothing—frankly, perhaps I'm past that age and don't enjoy it as much. Many of you might have noticed this from "Tide of the Times."
What should political novels be about? Many readers might say, write about political struggles, write something thrilling. Of course, these elements are there, but a one-sided focus on political struggles or overly dramatic thrillers doesn't seem to be what I truly aspire to. I believe that a political novel should resonate with the pulse of the times, reflect the sweeping changes of the era, and paint a picture of an entire era. This way, readers can not only enjoy the work but also gain some insights and reflections. That's what I consider a truly successful political novel.
I can't guarantee I can achieve that, but I will strive in that direction.
Thank you to all the readers who have supported "The Boundless Path of Power" and me. Special thanks to the three Alliance Leaders: fning, Drunken Deity, and 6146156; the two Sect Masters: The Sun of the East and tclan6495; the two Protectors: Fat Loach and Sweet Cane; and the Hall Masters: simon998, Bamboo, In the Future, Snowbird, and Wang Jing. Thank you also to all the other brothers who have supported me. Without you, I would have lost the motivation and inspiration to write.
