“Coincidental writer, 17 years old this year? ”

“Yes.”

When I read his manuscript, I thought it was not from the hands of a 17-year-old. Deep and dark.

“I thought the bird tracks were dark, too. ”

“That's it. It's not just dark this time, it's a little strong. ”

Blind editors said. He was an editor who recently resigned.

“There are even remotely named clowns there. They're all fascinating. ”

The song editor who was sitting next to him said, She was already a third-year editor this year, but she was still the youngest in her class.

“When the clown showed up, he was really excited. ”

The kicking wasn't as dark as it looked. The clown in the middle and his audience. They were the two most distant people from the overall atmosphere.

However, there is no disconnection, so you can enjoy the conversation between the two of you.

The chief of sales at the meeting opened his mouth.

“I'm sure they'll sell. Traces of birds have not cooled down yet. I don't think it's a bad idea to be sure. ”

“That's right. Coincidence is the most noteworthy writer of all time. ”

A little concern is raised next to the blind editor who agrees with him.

“But will it be okay? Is the content too irritating? · · · · · · ·. ”

“It takes time, too. ”

Everyone nodded at Song's words. Accidental writing was interesting. It was addictive and immersive. Since it has the name coincidence, it will definitely sell well as the chief said.

It sells well. It means a lot of people read his book.

“It's too heavy for a 17-year-old to write. It can get a little loud. There are still people who say," Isn't this the back of the column? "”

The blind editor shakes his head at Song's words.

“Not many people take suspicion seriously. The problem here is age. There must be readers out there who won't like it. ”

It was not that I didn't understand it when I read this article. It wasn't really old.

Even if there is no doubt, even readers who see it as bad because of the age of coincidence will surely come out.

It was too good a problem.

“Especially the ending. ”

At the editor-in-chief's words, he immediately remembered the corpse. The ending describes her broken appearance in detail. At the point of speaking of this story, no one else.

His son ran out to save his fallen mother. The mother falls and the son remains. But the son doesn't jump after her. Stay on the roof. That was the difference between her and her son. The mother who followed the dead baby and the son who left.

The result was a cruel representation of the relationship between the two people.

“Are you thinking of an end revision? ”

The editor asked Nam-Kyung, the editor in charge. Modification of the content. It was a sensitive word in many ways.

He was reluctant. There's only one reason not to. I like the accidental ending created by the writer.

The outcome is certainly stimulating and cruel. However, if you expose it forcefully, you will be sure to resent the strong emotions you felt while reading the article.

“Is it a coincidence that the writer is sensitive to such things? ”

“No, it wasn't. She's good at exchanging opinions. ”

The editor said that he was not really a student writer.

“I think we should publish like this. ”

The editor asked why. Nam-Kyung paused and opened his mouth.

“I think this is the scene that maximizes regret. ”

Regret. The destructive lives of two people and their end. Regret comes most strongly when you stand at the end. Because it's literally over. There is no turning back, no turning back. It's like water that can't be picked up. It's like something I spit out in a hurry.

Her death means regret.

“The speaker examines her body. That means he didn't turn his back on her death. It's the first time two people who keep running away from each other's mistakes face reality. ”

The age of the writer is not coincidental. But...

“If you mark this part as open, the reader will criticize the characters rather than empathize with them. ”

The next editor-in-chief nods. Chief Seo thought a little and said,

“Rather, it can be good for marketing. because the more stimulating it is, the more it works. I get references from popular writers. The birdstream wasn't written by a student that age anyway. ”

The editor gives a moment's thought and nods.

“All right, well, good luck with your editor. ”

“Yes.”

Afterwards, the meeting was concluded with other agendas placed on the mouth once.

*

The classroom was excited. The children shouted loudly, without hiding their excitement. Some didn't carry bags at all. The body is lighter and more energetic.

Seogwang turned around and said.

“You haven't slept much lately? ”

At some point, he opened his eyes and looked around.

He nods softly.

“I'm excited. I'm on vacation. ”

“You've been fine for almost a month. ”

“The holidays have been exciting for a month. ”

After completing the article, I was able to relax a little. I was tired because I slept during the day and wrote at night. I thought writing was best in a clear mind, but I couldn't help it.

He recalled what he said about the end. He said he was too direct and would fly so he didn't know how the readers would react.

I never thought of writing at all. I focused solely on writing. So I thought it was right to go.

He told him he didn't want to change the ending, and he agreed.

Since then, most of them have been exchanging emails with Nam-Kyung.

It was about changing the vocabulary, deleting sentences, or repairing or making improvements to the structure.

Fixed the consensus part and aligned the disagreement. Nam-Kyung changed the sentence quite horribly, so he had to spend a long day of tension.

Editors of this period played a critical role in the existence itself. The day he sighs, he may decide to rewrite the manuscript.

It was better if I didn't have enough sleep.

The publisher will now take the date of publication and go into the work of making books.

He asked Seogwang, enjoying his long relaxation.

“How's your English? ”

“No, it's hard. ”

Seogwang soon looked depressed.

“It would have been easier if it was the same as Korean. ”

In his words, he recalled the ancient English he had learned from James.

“In ancient English, euphemism didn't matter. It was mixed up in all sorts of different ways. Give, verb, object. Objective, verb, give. Etc.”

“Ancient English? ”

“Yeah, like Germanic. ”

“Germanic?”

Seogwang asked with a face that he didn't understand.

“Germanic. Why do you know that? ”

“It's just, it's fun. ”

“You having fun?”

Seogwang frowns. It was a face I didn't understand.

“Get used to it, get good at it, have a conversation, and it'll be pretty fun. ”

“I'm sure it is. It's a long way to go yet. No, you don't even write Germanic. ”

There was when I wrote it. In experiments that look at the limits of language acquisition devices.

He has mastered as many languages as possible. English, French, Japanese, Chinese, German, Spanish, Italian, Russian, Swedish, Danish, Norwegian, Dutch.

I also know medieval English, ancient English, Lombardy or ancient Scandinavian languages.

All was possible. He could read them, speak them, and hear them.

But it wasn't universal.

Over time, the word slowly stopped coming to my mind. There was still enough language to send and receive simple conversations, but when I thought about it or wrote long sentences, I had more moments of pause.

Keep learning and forget about it if you don't use it.

“Language is repetition. ”

He was angry because he thought it was what he was saying to himself.

He smiled and said.

“You have to work hard to find your first love. ”

“This one.”

When Seogwang said that, the front door of the classroom opened.

“Hey, stop talking and sit down. ”

A group of children responded.

“Let's clean up and go home. ”

There were sighs everywhere.

*

“You must be busy again. ”

The head of the sales department I met in the break room said as if he was unhappy. The sales department was the busiest department before and after the book was published. I often run into people on my own feet.

“But by chance, the writer's book tastes good. ”

“Really?"

“Yes. I like it. Even if I try to deal with books with the fairest minds possible, I have a book that I like more than people, and I have a book that I don't like. Come on, you know what? I've read this book and would like to recommend it. ”

“There is.”

“It's the same thing. I've read this book and would like to sell it a lot. Coincidental books.”

“I appreciate it. ”

“Was it difficult to correct the plaintiff? ”

The question of the chief of the West came from the mouth of Nam-Kyung.

“It wasn't easy. As the writer's unique handwriting was so strong, he tried very hard to fix the sentence in a line that did not damage his uniqueness. ”

“Hey.”

“And you're not just any writer by any chance. ”

It was really hard. He happened to be a popular writer at a young age. Moreover, the sentences he wrote were unique. Nam-Kyung liked the personality. I wanted to save as much as I could. To make that greed come true, we had to keep the line from hurting it, and we had to push our limits within it. Coincidentally, he understood the opinions of Namgyeong but never gave up the unconvincing sentence.

It was hard work, but the results were clear.

“Now you have to get your testimony, don't you? ”

“Yes.”

“Good work.”

Chief Seo poured the remaining coffee into his mouth at once and went up to the third floor where the sales department was located.

Namgyeong has returned to her seat.

Who should I get a testimony from? This is the next coincidence. I wanted to care as much as possible. I liked myself just like the chief said.

“The comrade is fine too. ”

Nam-Kyung, who once arranged a meeting of the highway and coincidence, murmured thinking about that time. If you're a comrade writer, I'll write you an honest euphemism. The atmosphere of this work matched well.

Maybe I should ask my comrade Writer.

There was a figure who naturally came to mind when he thought of his comrade writer. The writer of the book. He was a mysterious figure, but he recently resurrected in a splendid single-carpet room, so it shouldn't be a bad idea to ask him.

End of vacation
