It didn’t take long for Machida Enko to pick up Shiwa Kasumigaoka at the agreed place by car and escort her to her destination.
In the Fantastic Bunko Building under the Immortal River Bookstore, in the conference room with clear windows, the long table in the middle has been stacked with many light novels of the second volume of the Love Metronome.
“Kasumi Shiko-sensei, there are a total of 1,000 copies here, and they will be displayed and sold in the exhibition area on the first floor. You don’t have to sign all of these thousand light novels, just sign some of them. ”
Don’t look at Shiwa Kasumigaoka as a student while still having spare time to write novels, and being taken care of many times by Machida Enko as a senior editor, in fact, the light novel industry is not easy.
There is no shortage of people who are trying to increase sales, and in the autograph book alone, it took several days and thousands of signatures to make all the light novels released a signed version.
Unfortunately, this is a profession that has certain requirements for talent and a threshold.
Those who work hard don’t necessarily get the same amount in return.
“Are there any restrictions? Light novel authors can’t put out too many autographs at once or something…”
“There are no limits. I just think that with your ability, the sales of this second volume of Light Novel will not be bad, and there is no need to rely on signatures to forcibly promote, at least not at the cost of your own physical health. And if something really happens…”
If things don’t turn out to be Machida Yuanko’s expectations, it’s not a problem that can be solved by a few signed books.
“I see.”
Kasumigaoka Shiwa nodded.
Machida only accepted her suggestion, poured a glass of water for the girl, and stood up.
“It’s still working time, so I’ll go back to my desk first. If you encounter any problems, you can come to me directly, call or send me a message. ”
“Okay, you’re in trouble.”
“No trouble, no trouble, I am very fond of you~”
With a little encouragement to Shiwa Kasumigaokaoka, Machida left the conference room and returned to her desk.
Even a senior editor at Fantastic Bunko, Machida works in a large office with other editors, but with her own desk.
There are many Light Novel authors who come with printed or manuscripts in the large office, a small number of them who come to submit new volumes of light novels that have already been released, and most of them are pure newcomers, holding their works to ask the editors for their opinions, hoping to be recognized and even able to publish their own light novels.
Before distinguishing the ability of light novel authors by the sales of light novels, simply printing your own light novels into a volume for publication was not a low threshold.
Shiwa Kasumigaoka in the past has crossed, but there are many people who have not crossed yet.
Machida Kenko carefully and quickly scanned the newcomer’s works on her desk, and sighed after a while.
“After reading the second volume of Love Metronome, I feel that my vision has also improved, and now when I read other people’s light novels, I feel that I can’t lift up. As an editor, this is a big no-no. ”
Patting her face and forcibly cheering up, Machida Enko silently read many light novels that seemed very immature in both writing and plot ideas.
When interest becomes work, it can easily become a burden.
What’s more, these light novels are far from interesting.
The remaining working hours seemed to be longer than in the past, and there was no overtime, and Machida Enko even became a little tired.
“Speaking of which, although it is a little troublesome to look at Shi Yu, but I feel that her physical condition is very good, is this a young man… No, no, no, I’m only in my twenties, and I’m also a young man, so I can’t classify myself as an old aunt early!”
The more you read and the more you compare it, the more you can find the excellence of the second volume of Love Metronome, and Machida is looking forward to the results of this book.
In terms of personal feelings, it will be a gratifying thing for Machida Sonoko to be able to repay after her efforts, and in terms of career, if a super popular light novelist can appear under her command, the promotion of the position is just around the corner.
A little too much thinking.
Super popular light novelist or something, it’s too early.
In the evening, when work hours were over, Machida Kenko hurried out of her seat and walked towards the conference room where Shiwa Kasumigaoka was.
The remaining part of the light novel that has not been reviewed is taken home to read overtime, and now it is necessary to take care of the beautiful girl light novelist who is full of potential.
Since Shiwa Kasumigaoka was brought to the Bunko Building and kept her busy with light novel matters for a long time, he should also take on the job of sending her home.
“Kasumi Shiko-sensei…”
Pushing the door into the conference room, Machida Kenko’s words stopped as soon as she exited.
Shiwa Kasumigaoka fell asleep on the table, on her right hand was the mountain of light novels, and on her left hand was empty.
This situation silently declares one thing.
Machida Enko came to Shiwa Kasumigaoka lightly, picked up a few light novels piled up on her right hand and looked at them, and surprisingly found that the title pages of these novels were signed.
Shiwa Kasumigaoka signed a thousand light novels.
Signing is not too tiring work.
But if anything is repeated enough times, it becomes very hard.
It is not a simple task to write your name a thousand times and still be able to maintain her handwriting without deforming the signature due to the boredom of work and the sore arm.
It seems that Shiwa Kasumigaoka has good perseverance and physical fitness.
But whether it can be done is one thing, and whether it will be done is another.
What kind of experience made you work so hard?
Machida did not wake up Shiwa Kasumigaokaoka, but sat silently beside her, looking through the first draft of the light novel that she had not been able to finish before, while waiting for the girl to rest.
Hard work may not be rewarded, but if it is the effort of the gifted person in the field in which their talent is located, it should be rewarded.
