Internet opens new platform for talented writers
Print Edition
Internet literature is becoming an online sensation. Thousands have turned to the platform to read, while authors normally write under a pseudonym.
鈥淪now without Dirt鈥 has written the 鈥淜ing Regent鈥檚 Concubine鈥 and received 550,000 likes on a popular reading website. This Songjiang local has won multiple awards in competitions.
After graduating from Shanghai University of Engineering Science in 2010, she initially worked as a kindergarten teacher and didn鈥檛 begin writing until three years ago.
Her first piece of work did not make any inroads but her second one, 鈥淜ing Regent鈥檚 Concubine,鈥 has made quite a stir. The novel which features a harem fight and fantasies, got lots of positive feedback. There were untoward ratings as well, from the readers and from her peer writers. But she has learned to accept the hard feelings.
鈥淭here are things you need to endure if you want to succeed,鈥 she said.
鈥淪now without Dirt鈥 was truly motivated when she wrote. She did not stop even when she was having a baby. Now that she has quit to become a freelancer, she writes 8,000 words a day, keeps a draft of 200,000 words and earns 20,000 yuan (US$3,061) a month.
Speaking of her goal in the future, she said she would strive to become a significant writer in the field.
Some might not consider the Internet literature as serious writing but 鈥淪now Without Dirt鈥 defended it. She believes it can help relieve people鈥檚 pressure at work and it is pleasant to read. The writing sensation also added that Internet literature needs to be protected from piracy and that better works are expected to meet with readers.
