She admits that such high yields are spent almost all the time.
"Only constantly updated, on average 10,000 words a day, up to 40,000 words a day." "Purple Moon June told reporters that the update is slow to get more audiences, it means the income decline."
According to the reporter understood, the network writer all implements the fee system, "the industry's fee standard is 2 cents per thousand words or 3 cents, but this is only a reader clicks the return." "Online writers who have been in the 2006 want to say to reporters that a novel can read as much as 20,000 to 30,000, and that the income is very substantial." Good at writing sports novels of the network writer Lin Hai to listen to the Tao has been 9 years, "can only keep writing, if the next day there are things, today must be enough to save the manuscript, my saving manuscript can only use half a month." ”
Following the burial of the poisoned imperial Concubine, purple month June stop pen nearly half a year, and then talk about the first 3 years of writing time, she used "three" to describe, "every day is the bathroom, computer tables and beds, in order to ensure the update quantity, do not wash your face, do not brush your teeth on the beginning of the word is often.

However, whether it is normal work or stay up late code word, they have a common feature, almost no time to relax entertainment.
Without security, consciously as Heihu
All the network writers rely on the payment of life, no basic salary, no social security, the only thing they can protect themselves is constantly code word, earn enough money.
Purple Moon June know how fierce the competition in this industry, she has been telling herself, while still making money when you do not stop to update the footsteps, "if this article has readers like, I will try to update, if my novel no longer popular, then cry is too late." "She is willing to spend 3 years to earn 5 years of money, because she can not predict whether her next work is enough to hit the box-office."
"The barriers to this industry are very low, as long as you can write, you will be willing to spend time and effort to write will be able to earn more than other jobs." "Fang want to listen to the Tao and Lin have the same feeling, they also have no protection of their own a trace of worry." The psychological pressure of network writers is much larger than other professions, purple Moon June from writing a novel, it suffered a serious insomnia, lie down three hours a day to sleep, in order not to waste time, this three hours is her idea of the novel time.

But when it comes to banking, the careers of online writers are once again being questioned. Purple Moon June said that he has a job, can make money, but can not show a strong proof, "although I am a contract writer, but the site will not be issued to prove that you are really a writer, this profession in the eyes of the bank is useless."
