recently, Xu Yali, the third girl of the law department of the Wuhan college, became a "campus celebrity", with her monthly income of nearly 20 thousand yuan by writing a network novel for the signing literature website. Yesterday, Changjiang Daily reporter contacted Xu Yali. The "learning tyrant sister" said that although the income was considerable, the family did not support her writing online novels. After graduation, she will choose to go abroad for further study and study economics.
Mother objected: This is not a stable career
Xu Yali began writing Internet novels in 2014, primarily writing romantic themes. Shortly after his submission, his work was read by an editor of the famous Jinjiang online website, which became a contract writer. In
2014, Xu Yali received the first fee of 1800 yuan. "The market competition is fierce, and less than one percent of people are really well known and can make money."
Xu Yali said frankly, "the price of online novels is very low, basically the amount of reading is 3 cents per thousand words, and the author and website are divided into 73 parts. But because of my large amount of updating and wide reading groups, the monthly income is nearly 20 thousand yuan.
"I have always liked writing. From primary school to high school, almost every essay contest can be won." Xu Yali said, "I read a lot of books every day, and I also do my reading notes. Last year, my handwritten reading notes had more than 400 pages. Writing novels also needs to accumulate material. Once, in order to write a doctor, it took me a long time to specialize in medical terms.
at present, Xu Yali has 3 books of about 60 words or so. Its updated novel plans to write 300 million words, has completed 80 million words. "Actually writing is hard, and my parents, especially mothers, do not support me in writing online novels for a long time." Xu Yali said, "mother feels that the job of" Web Writer "is too unstable, and I hope I can go abroad for further education. I'm also preparing for IELTS, and I plan to go abroad to study economics after graduation.
