Three hours have passed since the writers sent out the stop notice

By Frankie C RederPublished 4 years ago 3 min read

Three hours have passed since the writers sent out the stop notice. Nothing has moved in the message section. It's too bad. In the hot and stuffy room, the writer held his arm over his face and smiled bitterly. I thought it was bad enough that I had decided to stop working on a work that had taken so much effort. As a result, it just proved that there was really not a single reader who wanted to follow that work. It's a complete humiliation. The first thing you need to do is to get rid of it. The writer sighed, pushed aside a pile of empty coffee cans in front of his computer screen, took out his mouse, and moved the cursor on the screen to the close page icon. Just as he taps down, he suddenly hears a beep. There was a private message from a reader. The writer clicked on the private message, hesitating, but unable to resist his inner expectation. The ID name should be a girl, the private letter began very politely, said she was a recent new reader, very much like the work, did not expect the writer actually to stop, she was particularly sorry and sad. "Author greatly, take the liberty to ask a question, why you do not continue to write ah?" The girl wrote in a private message, "Is it because of any problems in real life?" The writer stared at this question many times. His fingers pressed on the edge of the keyboard and bounced a few times before replying, "Sorry, I'm busy with other things and I don't have time to write this article again." Almost as soon as the other party received the writer's reply, they immediately sent a second private message, "So that's it, I guessed right, a writer like you who can write awesome stories must be very good in real life too." "I'm flattered." The writer didn't know what his psychology was, and couldn't resist continuing to reply to this strange reader, "But I do earn more from my job than from writing." The other party did not move for a long time. The writer no longer wanted to wait any longer before the other party sent a third party private letter. This time the letter was long and the girl detailed her recent situation. She said she used to hardly read online articles, but not long ago unfortunately had a car accident, spinal injuries, can only lie in a hospital bed every day, the days are really boring, only to think of reading online articles to pass the time. As a result, I inadvertently saw the writer's work, and I was fascinated by it. "The life of lying on a hospital bed is very miserable, but this time I can catch up with your updates, is the most anticipated and happy moment of my day." The girl said in a private message, "Seeing that the protagonist of your work, no matter how many times he is in trouble, is still full of hope for life and can still get up and move forward tenaciously, I am so encouraged, as if that character is just myself ......" The writer was a little moved. paused for a moment before continuing to read on. "The doctor said my situation is not optimistic, the rest of my life is probably only in a wheelchair, to be honest, I was thinking that instead of living like this, it would be better to die, but my heart is still thinking about your update, ha ha, is not very strange, but this is really my mood at the time, like catching a light in the dark, I would like to see once again in a desperate situation of the protagonist, in what way will The way to continue to hold on." "The author suddenly decided to stop and leave the protagonist in a desperate situation, which was too much for me.
