If both manga and light novel are written by the same author will there be any
difference between them? I did a little digging in the internet for it, but
all I got was the general difference between manga and light novel.

TBH, I am asking this question because it seems that English translation for
the light novel "The Pervert Prince and the Stony Cat" aka "Henneko" written
by Sou Sagara has been abandoned(I can't find better words than this). But the
same author wrote the story of the manga version of the aforementioned LN and
it's translation is finished and it also has ended publishing.

It's true that the aforementioned series is not really known to many people.
Since I have an affinity to the ecchi genre, that's how I bumped upon this
series.

Difference between manga and light novel written by same author


A manga is a comic book or graphic novel - **a story told in sequential art**.
A light novel is a prose book with some illustrations. Called "light" because
the content tends to be easy-reading and the size is small and portable.

I googled it myself and the first search result was this below:

And honestly you won't find a better answer to this. Question is pretty much
the same as well. You just added the same author clause.

By looking at the timing of manga and light novel(almost the same) i can just
say that, either he wasn't ready for someone to work on his creation or he
wanted to expand his fanbase while he was onboard to earn money or fame or
even just the simple logic "like providing fans his content as per his
vision". He, decided to write both novel and manga.
