Fujimura seems to have spent about a year since September 1907 (1907) from the preparation of writing "Spring" to the end of the serialization. This "spring" was published 135 times in the Asahi Shimbun from April 7, 1908 after Soseki Natsume's "piter".
During writing, Fujimura told an acquaintance about the state of this seawater hall, etc., "Half this year-I need to write two-thirds of the time I can do it ... I think that I will move to an inn on this coast from yesterday. This inn does not tell my friends ... The writing of the Asahi Shimbun has not yet been announced to the world. In a room in the west corner of the second floor, it combines the quietness of a temple and the convenience of a dormitory. "
