many good titles were made by first time authors. There is only one way to find out anon.

Personally I have always admired Hiramaru from bakuman.

Yes and no.

The bar is set quite low so almost anyone that can keep a coherent thought long enough to write a novel has the possibility to succeed.

Writing itself is not any easy thing. If u are not skilled it can be difficult to put thought to print and to maintain interest long enough to finish a novel.

Depends on your writing level and creativity.
The creativity shouldn't be too hard, the writing however can take forever because trying to organize those ideas, writing them out in a clear form that would be interesting to read, and a whole list of other things.
But none of it matters because you're not a nip

OP could just write YA novels, same thing.

About as difficult as writing a supermarket romance novel

>>143945665
Writing a good one that people like isn't easy.

>>143945665
Not as hard as writing an actual novel, but still pretty difficult.

Where can I find a cute girl who will look at me like that?

Friendly reminder that light novels are by definition low-quality material written to be easy and fun for young adults to read. When you read light novels or watch light novel adaptations, you are doing the Japanese equivalent of consuming Disney Channel.

And to think that retards on this board argue that trash shows like Oreimo, Bakemonogatari and Index are good when they are all based off of light novels and by definition are inferior.

I'm going to say yes: writing in general is hard. Many authors lack imagination and creativity to think beyond the clichés and outside of tropes. Then there are those series that are self inserting wish fulfillment power fantasies. These two things are plaguing anime, manga, and light novels.

I wrote like 30-40 pages of a novel once. It was kinda fulfilling, dedicating myself to something that took hours a day over months to do, but no one seemed to give a shit whenever I posted it so I guess it was boring.

Just make a isekai novel and slap some videogame references on it, I am sure it will end up great.

That depends if you're constipated or not.

>>143945665
Is "light novel" a special Japanese designation? I haven't seen those words used in other countries.

>>143945665
The only hard part is finding a good illustrator to make some hot designs for your generic stereotyped characters and garbage story.

But if you manage to excel in this task you are set for life.

They're called LNs in Japan because they're light on kanji, everywhere else in the world they're called young adult novels.

Nigga, no.

>>143945665
Depends on how good you want it to be.
