The process of “creating” content, in my case a book, is usually something complex and differs from person to person. Here I’ll describe how it works for me, and how I can effectively cooperate with my brother to lay out the story of The S.T.E.A.L. Saga.
First of all, usually my brother has the original idea. Usually it’s vague and not quite definite, but enough to start a discussion. Generally he explains the basic idea to me while I take notes, and occasionally we adjust things on the fly depending on our taste. Once the skeleton of the story (from start to finish) is laid out, I begin writing.
This is not where it ends, however. As people who read the snapshots have surely noticed, things change either because I find better ideas along the way, or because I’m not satisfied in how they play out. So there is more discussion and adjustments, and occasionally rewrites (chapter 4 of Lost Innocence and the last three chapters of People of the Darkness are examples of that). Also I or my brother may want a particular character to act in a certain way so this brings even more adjustments.
The result is the books you read. I hope you like them.
you should include what you wrote here and in the “non japanese author” post inside the last book (unless you already have done so :3 )
