Surviving as a Writer in the British Empire

chapter 22



Learning Book (2)

Let’s be honest.

I have lived in the era of the cinematic universe, the era where eggplant wonderland was the number one cumulative mobile game sales for several years, and the era when a couple writers shared a pen name and were at the peak of the web novel world.

In other words, it means that the concept of collaboration between artists is lowered to some extent.

It actually sold less than writing it alone, but I also tried to collaborate to some extent.

but.

I forgot one thing.

That is why I am collaborating with Lewis Carroll.

“No, let’s go in lightly! Why the heck are you already trying to do calculus?!”

“What, what do you mean! Mi, differential is, go, most jump, outstanding New, Newton’s uh, achievement! This is number, this is called mathematics, it is the tongue, the reality that reflects the idea.

“That’s not my business.”

“As long as it’s fun, if you do it, you can do it!!”

“Are you sure you and the kids are the same? There is a degree to that, you man!!”

The difference between mathematical knowledge and perception of popular literature.

“That, and! Now, you say, ooh, rhyme, girl I, no idea, no idea! What, why, why, am I hacking up the sentence like that!?”

“No, that makes reading easier?! Rather, from my point of view, I don’t understand the teacher’s writing more! Why is the story so flat!?”

Opposite writing style.

If you ask which of the two is more serious, I think it’s the latter.

Fundamentally, I am a practical type.

The skill of how people can read and understand the text most easily, which I have trained for years while writing web novels, is right in my fingers.

The conclusion I came to was cost performance.

It specializes in how to easily and quickly embed the story I want to tell into my brain.

But Lewis Carroll is the exact opposite.

This nobleman writes in pure fashion. Should I say typical gifted genius?

Moreover, the writing process is rather close to composition.

Each sentence works like a musical note made up of sentences, and reading the sentences aloud to the rhyme seems like singing a song.

By the way, can you put a lot of volume in a song?

Of course, it would be possible if it was an opera or a musical. However, it is almost every few hours, and several people sing it alternately.

After all, since it is a note made up of a sentence, the cost-effectiveness of the content compared to the sentence is bound to be extremely low.

So the story is simple.

Are the two of us doing a ‘collaboration’?

It means that the boat was perfect for going to the mountain.

“I can’t.”

Eventually I came to a conclusion.

“Now that it’s like this…”

“This is strange?”

Did I know you would ask me to quit like this? Lewis Carroll swallows.

“We do a complete division of labor.”

“Uh, huh?”

“I will take over the big picture of the story. Please think of formulas and tricks that will go into it. Then I will amend that article.”

Separation of bone and muscle.

In the end, there was only this.

It doesn’t matter if the content in the study library is a little light. Anyway, the kids will see it.

Anyway, if I specify the big picture, Lewis Carroll won’t be able to write difficult college-level math at will. Because there is a formula that fits the story.

And if the tempo of the writing is closely followed, it will be possible to suppress the rhyme he claims. Because the amount of progress is fixed.

“And the settings are as unfamiliar as possible.”

“I am unfamiliar. rani. That, then uh, wouldn’t it be difficult…”

“Well, it doesn’t mean that. Should we call it an alienation effect? You just have to combine what you understand well.”

It is similar to the principle of writing a worldview in which high school girls remain intact even if they are hit by anti-aircraft missiles.

If you harmonize what you know with what you know in an unbalanced way, the disharmony itself creates ‘interest’. Maybe it’s the feeling of the unknown.

Well, it is a difficult technique to use in web novels where stable ‘familiar taste’ is the trend, but isn’t Lewis Carroll using it now? Then you should make the most of it.

Then, the question is what to mix… I started tapping on the table and rolling my head.

First of all, among the math-related learning comics in my head, I excluded the otherworldly ones that were of the highest quality.

It’s hard to solve that with a novel.

However, the fact that the base is a medieval fantasy itself is useful.

Anyway, it’s the most familiar ‘battle water’ in this era.

math there.

What are the characteristics of mathematics? It is the easiest ‘rule’ to understand. Because the answer is clear.

And anyway, it should be something that this math geek teacher will continue to enjoy and use.

battle thing. and rules.

The answer comes from combining these two.

“Okay, it’s decided.”

I slowly gave Lewis Carroll an overview of the work.

The novelist, a mathematician and teacher, seems to have started to take an interest in the work itself, but he still hesitated as if he was anxious.

“Wow, are you okay? I-I don’t know…”

He hesitated, but I said with confidence.

“It’s probably a worldview that Mr. Lewis likes too. To the point where I want to live there.”

I don’t think you understand yet, but you’ll soon find out. the value of this work.

“Okay, then let’s get to work.”

***

“welcome. Author Mark Twain.”

“Nice to meet you. Mr. Bentley.”

Richard Bentley Jr. was nervous and held the hand of a small but firm writer. It had to be.

Mark Twain is already a legend in the British and American literary world.

<The Adventures of Tom Sawyer> and <The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn> are not just children’s literature.

It is a book that has contributed to reforming society by accurately piercing the lungs of the United States and making American literature independent of British literature.

In other words, just having those books published in a magazine can elevate the status of a publisher.

So, Bentley said, treating Mark Twain on the same level as Hanslow Jean and Henry James.

“First of all, our infinite gratitude for allowing us to publish and publish the author’s masterpiece in our magazine—.”

“Geez, let’s stop talking white and talk about business.”

“Ah yes.”

And quit.

Yes, writers are people like this. Bentley laughed hard. It was also a laugh.

Mark Twain also grinned at such a Richard Bentley Jr.

3rd Bentley. Despite being an Englishman with an aristocratic-sounding title, he was respectful toward an American writer who had crossed over.

There was nothing I liked more about Mark, who was an anti-goal by nature.

“First of all, we have already finished talking about the contract at the New York branch. So, Tommy and Huck, please sell them well.”

“Don’t worry. Our publisher is working hard to deliver the writings carefully written by the writers to the readers in the best form.”

“I know that too. It’s a weekly serial conversion. He was genius.”

“Kuh, kuh hmm.”

Stung in a sore spot, Bentley cleared his throat.

Mark Twain, who liked that honesty even more, chuckled and nodded.

“Yeah, I heard it all on the boat coming this far. I heard that the monthly magazine has become a completely different magazine now?”

“Yes, children’s literature, including your <The Adventures of Tom Sawyer>, is focused on weekly serials, and now we have decided to put adult-oriented novels in monthly magazines.”

“So, who asked me to write <Vincent Villiers> first? is it you Or Hanslo Jean?”

flinch—!

it’s behind

Mark Twain nodded, looking at Bentley, who was startled as if he had been stabbed.

Well then, Mark chuckled, thinking that now he could go to America and get $10 from Nicola.

“As expected, it’s Hanslo Jin! My, even though I read <Peter Perry>, which is pompous like an Englishman, I definitely felt it. This writer is undoubtedly ‘the same department’ as me.”

“Kuh, kuhm. Is that so?”

“Yes, so Mr. Bentley,”

From noble mtl dot com

Richard Bentley Jr. felt like he was a buffalo.

It’s not that I want to run amok, it’s that I feel like I’m being dragged around in the noose of an American cowboy.

And that cowboy, Mark Twain, who exuded America’s unique rough frontier spirit, looked at Bentley with burning eyes and said,

“Hanslo Jin, I want to meet you.”

“······That’s not for me to decide, author.”

“ah! Of course I respect his wishes. But wouldn’t it be possible to at least tell the story?”

“That’s true, but…”

Bentley was briefly conflicted.

In fact, there are many writers who want to meet Hanslo Jin. In other words, the many writers who are knocking on the publishing house that was on the verge of bankruptcy are the ones who were influenced by <Peter Perry> in a good or bad way.

In fact, Herbert George Wells, the writer of <Time Machine>, also brought up the idea of meeting Hanslo Jin.

Bentley cut it because he thought now was not the time.

But what if it was Mark Twain, no one else?

Basically, the fact that he is a writer that Hanslo Jin likes, and considering his personality that runs without discrimination, I don’t think there will be a big problem.

But… on the contrary, wouldn’t this reckless appearance make you tired? I also heard the concern.

Come now and stop Hanslo’s writings, the format they went through a while ago, and the publishing company fire format that Street Magazine is struggling with recently will begin again.

Didn’t the company’s editors do their recent commute with the protection of Scotland Yard?

It was then.

smart-

“Oh, sorry.”

“It doesn’t matter. Please come in.”

After receiving Mark’s permission, Bentley nodded and opened the door.

Then, a female editor who had recently arrived caught his eye.

“Maria, what is it?”

“president. This is a call from writer Hanslo Jin.”

“Writer Hanslo? what brings you here?”

Usually, it was first to bet from this side, so Bentley reacted that way.

“Aren’t you somewhere else now? I mean, I’m going to meet the author Lewis Carroll.”

“yes. you’re right.”

Mark Twain’s eyes lit up at the word Lewis Carroll, but Bentley said nothing.

He is not even a politician, so what would it be like to hide someone from meeting someone?

However, as a children’s writer, it was not strange to be curious about Lewis Carroll, just as Mark Twain was curious about Hanslow Jean.

No matter what anyone says, among the current generation of writers, isn’t he the one who fits the nickname ‘magician of language’ better than anyone else?

Lewis Carroll and Hanslo Jean met.

As an avid reader and a person in the same industry, I couldn’t help but be curious.

So Mark Twain stayed where he was with his Buffalo-style American manly stubbornness, and Bentley ended up answering the phone in front of Mark Twain’s ears.

and.

“Yes, yes. Author, this is Bentley. Heard he was meeting writer Lewis Carroll… Yeah? London now?”

“That’s why, uh, what you’re talking about is, the writers collaborated… then the textbook… ah, no…”

“Ah, thank you for that… But more than that, there’s someone here in America who wants to meet the author… Mark Twain, the 10th… Yes? You want to come right away?”

had a windfall A smile bloomed on Mark Twain’s lips.
