"Oda, do you know that writing novels is a very lonely thing?"
"..."
"Do you know that countless unknown writers are working alone! Writing novels requires not only talent, but also opportunities, connections and funds!"
"..."
"Have you received training in writing? Have you reached a certain amount of reading? The most important thing is that when you are unknown and immersed in creation, how much income can sustain you? Do you want to stop socializing? Can you endure a life where no one appreciates your talent and may not improve for many years?"
"..."
"Don't look at me with an innocent expression. Do you really want to understand?"
"Natsume Soseki said that I have a talent for writing. The most important thing is that Dazai wants to read my novels. Opportunities are not terrible without readers. Dazai is the best reader. Even if I become a third-rate novelist for their expectations, I still want to write this story in the book. I am a person who can endure loneliness. I have always maintained boundaries with others, but now that I have friends, I understand it very well."
"... It's rare for you to say so many words in one breath."
Intention: Firm beliefs and dreams, and live toward the sun. Brightness and goodwill may save a person.
