The cartoonist and Tian Jizhen’s editor said to him: “If the outline is not finished, let me see!”
Answered with Tian: “But what I wrote is really only the list of lines, the foreword is not followed, I can’t understand…”.
Editors comfort him: “Nothing, I will interpret it!”
I was very touched with Tian, and I sent the unfinished outline to the editor
After editing, reply to him on Line:
Is this the lyrics of Nishino Kana?

Light novelistむらさきゆきやI often see that someone who is ridiculed for marriage is too demanding, but he looks at the people he knows, most of them meet the common requirements of women who are married: Will do housework, and the annual income is also high…
Just are light novel writers

Adult cartoonist Haicang received a commission to draw illustrations for light novels. However, in the main text, some of the main characters have no description of hair color, twilight, height, clothing, and gender, which makes him unable to draw. When asked the editorial office, the other party replied: “Please draw freely.” Asked by the DPRK, can readers imagine the characters in their brains?

The game scripter Dawu Zhengman also took the opportunity to complain, thinking that such a party misunderstood the meaning of freedom. If there is no specific demand list, then Party B should not take the job. This is common sense. Complete freedom will only make Party B guilty. He believes that this is a bad habit in the publishing industry. Because it is a professional, I want to pay attention to the demand list. In addition, at least the heroines should be like what they have, even if they have an impression of even a little

And the mystery novelist Lu Bian Tuo advocated that in traditional novels, it is quite common to not describe the appearance of a character. For example, a character, only the attribute and name of “office worker”, the story progresses. This is not uncommon. On the contrary, a few days ago, he had the opportunity to write a plan for a light novel. He had to fill in the character’s hair and eyes in the character list and let him stay for a long time. Before that, he never thought about these things

The light novelist Ge Xishen said that the appearance of the characters, “performance for the text” and “performance for the picture” may not be consistent. So sometimes, writers are willing to make requests, and even deliberately ignore the contradiction between articles and illustrations
As a very common example, in the school of love comedy on the stage of modern Japan, it is difficult to write the heroine’s hair in pink or green in the article

Light novelist Cangshanサグindicates that he is not difficult to draw: he is afraid that his request will be too fine, but the result is not as good as the artist’s aesthetic. Do a detailed description of the appearance. But at the same time, he also understands that if the author does not decide on these things, the artist does not know how to draw
Recently, he will attach a role profile to the editor in addition to the text. The appearance of the character’s appearance in the data sheet is similar to a famous character, but if the artist’s impression is different, then it is completely subversive. However, he still does not know whether this is the most appropriate

The novel editor Tsuchiya also said that different writers have different degrees of attachment to the appearance of the characters. Some writers think that the appearance of the characters of the semi-hanger may limit the development of the plot in the future, so they do not write; some writers think that the artist is more professional than the characters, so I hope to give the appearance of the appearance to the artist

The writer does not specify the appearance in detail, and the illustrator is not happy. But the writer has appointed it, and the illustrator will not be able to follow the painting
Illustrator Hong Xu forwarded the discussion of the light novel writer Nakata Shinji on this matter, and said that he got the novel of Nagata to save with numbers! At the time of the first draft of the Weak Country, the heroine of the text, Sola, was originally a black hair. However, he changed himself to silver hair and handed it over

The readers in the comments (?) are also full of praise, and they all said that they bought this work because they liked silver hair
