Writing a novel and keeping it locally wouldn't violate copyright because copyright protected the moment of creation, not the moment of transmission after the creation. However, if the novel was uploaded to the Internet, including publishing, sharing, or selling on the website, it might involve copyright issues. This is because copyright protection lasts for 10 years from the date of the first release of the work. Without the permission of the copyright owner, the work cannot be distributed or shared. Therefore, if you want to share or sell a novel on the Internet, it's best to first ask the copyright owner (usually the author or bookstore of the novel) if it's possible to do so. If you share or sell a novel without permission, you may be involved in copyright issues and may lead to legal consequences.

The author of the novel found on the Internet had stated that if the novel belonged to a copyright-protected genre, the act of publishing might constitute copyright violation. According to the copyright law, without the permission of the copyright owner, no one can copy, distribute, perform, show, broadcast, information network transmission, etc. to exploit the works of others. If you find a novel that has not been protected by copyright on the Internet and post it on your own website, even if you indicate that the author of the novel is someone else, it may still constitute copyright infringement. Of course, there are exceptions to the copyright law, such as the author has authorized others to use his work or the original elements contained in the work have exceeded the scope of copyright protection. However, if the novel itself is a copyright-protected genre, then the act of publishing may constitute copyright violation. In order to avoid copyright violation, it is recommended to confirm whether the novel has obtained copyright protection and comply with relevant laws and regulations before publishing any novel.

The clashing of web novels might involve copyright issues, but it did not necessarily belong to the category of copyright violation. A clashing refers to the appearance of elements, plots, or characters from other works in a work, and these elements, plots, or characters have been widely used in other works. In this case, although it may be considered copyright violation to directly quote elements, plots, or characters from other works, if these elements, plots, or characters are widely used in the original work and are appropriately quoted by the author, it will not be considered copyright violation. For example, if the magic wand from Harry Potter appeared in a web novel, it would not be considered a copyright violation if the author of the novel appropriately quoted the magic wand in the novel. However, if the author of the novel directly copied the entire image of the wand in Harry Potter and this image was unique in Harry Potter, it might be considered copyright violation. Therefore, web novel authors had to be careful to avoid copying elements, plots, or characters from other works. When using elements, plots, or characters from other works, they had to use them appropriately and respect the copyright.

It was common for online novels to have the same name as published novels. This usually involved copyright issues. In copyright law, once a work is published, it obtains the copyright. Any unauthorized copying, distribution, distribution, etc. are considered as copyright infringement. Therefore, if an online novel had the same name as a published novel and was copied, distributed, or disseminated without authorization, it might involve copyright issues. In this case, the author may need to pay the copyright owner (usually the publishing house or the publishing authority) a copyright fee to obtain copyright protection for the work. Of course, the specific situation also depended on the specific content of the novel, the time and method of publication, and the local copyright law. If you are interested in copyright issues, it is recommended to consult a professional lawyer or copyright regulator.

If a novel had already been published, adapting it into a game and using the novel's storyline, character images, and other elements in the game might be considered copyright violation. This was because the game adaptation was essentially a second creation of the novel. If the author did not obtain the authorization of the novel author during the creation process or used some non-authorized elements in the novel, it might be considered as copyright violation. The following aspects needed to be considered: 1. Is the game based on a novel? If the game is based on a novel, the act of adapting the game itself may constitute copyright violation. If the game was based on a plot, character, or theme of a novel, it might not be considered an copyright violation. 2. Whether the game uses elements from the novel: If the game uses elements such as the storyline, character image, language style, etc. of the novel or references certain lines and scenes from the novel during the game, there may be a risk of copyright violation. 3. Whether the game has been authorized by the author of the novel: If the author of the game has been authorized by the author of the novel and the scope of authorization includes the elements in the novel, the game adaptation may not be considered as copyright violation. It should be noted that the copyright protection period of the novel was usually within a few decades after the publication of the novel. If the game adaptation happened before the copyright protection expired, it might constitute an copyright violation. In addition, if the author of the novel had objections to the copyright issue or the game adaptation involved a large number of copyright disputes, the game adaptation could also be considered as copyright violation. Therefore, it was best to consult the copyright department in advance to avoid possible legal risks.

If the officially completed anime was created by the same author or team, and the main plot and characters of the original anime were retained after it was written into a novel, then it was usually not considered an copyright violation. However, if the plot and characters of the continuation novel were very different from the original anime, or if the original anime was maliciously tampered with or distorted, then it might constitute an copyright violation. In addition, if the novel used the original plot or characters from the original anime, it might also be considered as copyright violation. In order to avoid copyright violation, it is recommended that you carefully consider when continuing the novel to ensure that your creation does not conflict with the original anime and respect the rights of the original copyright owner.
