"We need to think of making our story as not cliché as possible," Ushijima suggested.

Miho nodded.

"We need to make sure our characters are not perfect," Ushijima remarked.

Miho agreed. Not everybody is drop dead gorgeous or brilliantly clever.

Ushijima turned to Miho. We should base our characters of actual people to make them realistic. Miho thought that was a brilliant idea.

"Ordinary people will give us a better insight into what makes a good book. Readers should be able to relate to the characters in the book,"

Miho thought Ushjima was a genius.
