So Ordinary I Want to Be Recognized

"The writing style is acceptable, the feelings are sincere, and the illustrations are exquisite..." After considering the language, the well-known beautiful girl writer expressed his views on this work.

"Really..." Machida Sonoko nodded slightly as if she had gained a common language.

However, she didn't continue to say anything. Instead, she was quietly waiting for the other party's next words as if she had been prepared.

"But, this novel... I always feel that there is something wrong." Xia Shizi's eyes were slightly blurred as if she was still reminiscing about that touching story.

"How do you say it?" Machida Sonoko continued to ask with a look of understanding.

"Mr. Nakamura has indeed written a very moving story..." Although she said words of praise, Xia Shizi's eyes lowered, "But I feel that this story...may not be too popular."

"Yeah..." At this moment, Sonoko Machida naturally took over the topic, "Does Shi-chan think so?"

"Ah."

"I hold the same opinion as you. In recent years, the tastes of light novel readers...have been developing in a certain impetuous direction." The beauty editor sighed helplessly, "Fresh battle, sweet The love of love, a straightforward plot that does not require too much scrutiny, and some novel and interesting stalks, this is what most readers need. And readers who like this kind of touching but sad stories, although there are, but ...too hard to get caught up in our propaganda."

"So, dear editor, may I ask... Is the library really promoting its works?" At this moment, Xia Shizi asked her soul.

"Don't worry about those details, Shi-chan!" Hearing this, Machida Sonoko showed a slightly embarrassed smile.

"But... I think what you said is right." Without poking at the other party's pain point, Xia Shizi expressed her opinion, "Will take the trouble to pay attention to the release information of various seedling works, usually What about the otaku. Their tastes are exactly as you describe."

"Mr. Nakamura's current situation...is somewhat similar to that of Shichan back then." Machida Sonoko knocked her head with a headache, "The story in the first volume does not have ups and downs in the plot, nor does it attract readers' pain points , and most importantly ... lack of adequate publicity."

Listening to Machida Sonoko's narration, Kasumigaoka Shiwa also recalled that period of despair.

The works created with painstaking efforts are not recognized at all, and are on the verge of being cut in half...

That feeling of total loss of self-worth... She just didn't want to go through it again.

"However, Shi-chan and Mr. Nakamura...are different. First of all, Shi-chan's identity is a high school girl writer, and this gimmick can attract the attention of a large number of readers. Secondly, although Shi-chan's story is also It's a bit sad and bitter, but it still caters to the taste of the market I know. And the most important point is that when Shi-chan was on the verge of dying, he met... Taki-kun."

Saying so, Machida Sonoko showed a slightly ambiguous smile.

Opposite her, Xiazhiqiu Shiyu curled her lips and shook her legs.

Mr. Ethics... For me, he is indeed... a noble person in life.

Without him, perhaps I would have had to give up writing a long time ago, and continue to live my life in a daze.

It is also because of this that I...

Seemingly thinking of something unpleasant, she frowned slightly.

"So...I'm actually a little worried about the prospect of the novel "To this day, you are still my light". However, I still want to give Mr. Nakamura a chance to prove himself. Maybe... Will a miracle happen?" Saying so, the face of the beauty editor gradually became milder.

Such a beautiful story...shouldn't have been buried.

From the bottom of her heart, she does not want to see that one day, all the works on the market are like old wine in new bottles, using the same template to tell different stories.

"Maybe." In response to this, Xiazhiqiu Shiyu's cell phone rang suddenly.

She took out her phone, unlocked the lock screen, and found that... a guy she was following updated her status.

[The novel "To this day, you are still my light" with me as the illustrator will meet you this Friday!If you are interested, you can buy it and have a look! ]

This is a new tweet from Eri Kashiwagi.

"Hey, did Teacher Eri Kashiwagi make a public announcement?" Sonoko Machida brought her head closer at some point.

"Yeah." Xiazhiqiu Shiyu nodded.

"Good news! Although Mr. Kashiwagi's popularity is not that explosive, he is still a well-known ... doujinshi creator." When the last few words were spoken, the beauty editor was a little embarrassed.

"If she is the one to act, it should be effective." Commenting like this, Kasumigaoka Shiu suddenly remembered the meeting between herself and Eriri during the Golden Week.

At that time, she took a very serious attitude and sincerely asked herself...

Her serious face with a hint of shame seemed to appear in front of him again.

"Then, please, Teacher Xia Shizi!"

Those words seemed to be still ringing in my ears.

Did you do this for your friend...

If the grade of this novel is poor in the end, it will be a big blow to you... Mr. Eri Kashiwagi.

Thinking of this, she sighed lightly.

Like Machida Sonoko, she is not particularly optimistic about the prospects of this novel.

But...

After all, it still carries the expectations of some people.

Maybe, a miracle will really happen... Maybe?

After browsing this tweet again, Kasumigaoka Shiyu didn't rush out.

She returned to her personal homepage and started editing a tweet of her own.

[My new work "Innocent One Hundred Pascals" will be officially released this Friday together with Mr. Nakamura's work "To this day, you are still my light"!Welcome everyone to come and buy. ]

After typing this content, she lightly pressed the release button.

Just treat it as...help me a little bit, Sawamura-san.
