Half a year ago, after reading Biography of Dai Mingshi, I suddenly felt the urge to write a long historical novel. I knew my writing was insufficient, so I have been reading Mao Award novels, learning to build structures, tell stories, portray characters and do my homework.
The trilogy The Emperor by the River in February, Yong Zhengdi, won the Mao Prize, and I gave up after reading the first volume. I want to see it again after returning from this cultural trip. Take a look at "Collected Works of February River" 13, with a total of more than 500 million words. Read a book every week and you can finish it in three months. Take this article as evidence, don't give up halfway.
