The translation is solid. The story reminds me of the "The Great Story Teller" and "Big Life".

The info dumps in The Great Story Teller was too much and Big Life didn't put enough information in the creation process of writing a novel. This novel has a great balance between him writing, gaining fame, and his day to day activities.

This is really different from the normal idol and acting novels. I like this theme more.

Novels about "genius writers" generally have the same issues where the actual author is not a genius writer. They can't properly portray it, you can only skimp out on fields of talent.

"Genius Writer": Unsurprisingly this novel has the same issue, everything the protagonist does is constantly overly praised by those around him even though it's something that anyone with an above-average IQ can think of. It's really disconcerting to read a whole chapter where the MC is praised for something so basic and average that it just takes me out... more>> of the story and makes me think about how basic and average the actual writer is.

Side Characters: So if the author can't portray interesting aspects of the writing industry there should at least be interesting character dynamics and drama right? Nope, the characters are basic af no-name people who are easily forgettable. His friends are basically nerd background characters you usually see once and never see again in animes or TV-shows, you'd think that it would be interesting to dive into these characters for once but instead you figure out why these types of characters appear once and only once. His family is a basic normal family that loves him, with 0 interesting aspects. His peers in the writing industry are the same type of characters you see in CN novels where the only thing they can do is "drop their jaws" be surprised and amazed at how amazing and talented the character is. Overall you're reading about Starfield NPCs if they were in a highschool/college setting instead.

Main Character: So if the narritive device is tr*sh and the characters are tr*sh at least the MC is interesting and likeable right? Nope he's so boring it's not even funny, after experiencing years of being paralyzed only looking at the same wall or something you'd think he be a little twisted but instead, he has no mental issues all he does is be laid back make people be healthy and exercise and sometimes impress people with his writing. He's basically written to be the responsive main character that usually bounce off of the interesting side characters and make interesting scenarios only both him and the side characters are boring af.

So yeah, it's very dull and boring. I think it's fine to binge-read the whole thing if you're bored enough but if you even spend a second to think things through you can never go back. <<less

Spoiler

Feels like one of those typical genius stories. Guy either uses work from his time and marks it as his own. Or due to going back in time, and using work he came up with over a lifetime, now is a hot seller and described as a genius by everyone.

Either way, not very interesting to read. Nothing that sets it apart from everyone gushing over the main character in different ways in each subsequent chapter.

It is a good read but not as good as "The Great Storyteller" which portrays the main character's inner psyche and development more vividly and associates them with his works along the way. Here it feels a bit shallow or not presented enough, granted this is a light novel and this site is for light novels.
