How to write a good light novel

2024-09-17 11:35

I have written novels before and have published books before (I published them when I was in my second and third year of high school). However, I write large-scale novels (the kind that are both large and thick). I want to change my taste and write light novels. However, I don't know how to write them. I read that many people on the Internet say that light novels should be written lightly, unlike large-scale novels (the kind that are both large and thick). How should I write light novels? I would like to ask if any author who has written light novels before can teach me????

There were a few points to note when writing a good light novel: 1. Deciding the storyline: The storyline of a light novel is very important in determining the direction and pace of the story. A good story should have enough conflict and suspense to make the reader want to continue reading. 2. Shaping the characters: The characters in light novels are the soul of the story. They need to have enough depth and character for the readers to resonate and emotionally invest. At the same time, the appearance, language, and behavior of the characters needed to be carefully designed so that the readers could better understand and feel their emotions and hearts. 3. Use narrative techniques: The narrative techniques in light novels include interruption, metaphor, symbolism, contrast, etc. These techniques can be used to enhance the expressiveness and emotional resonance of the story. 4.
