I just wanna thank Thunderdome for existing, lmao. I had the genre beaten out of me in high school/college creative writing ("does this HAVE to be set in space? Does this NEED to have magic? Romances are stupid and boring, you should write something serious!" etc) until all I turned in was homogenized, "well written", incredibly boring contemporary adult fiction slop that my profs loved but everyone else seemed to hate, so I'm kicking my inner voice that says poo poo like "journal style?? why are you writing like a teenager trying to sound cool?" because it's serving nobody. Thanks.

you can include weird stuff in literary fiction but only provided you stash it in between a bunch of unbearable stuff about tennis statistics and heroin addicts who for some reason all act like alcoholics otherwise if you wanna be really literary you just have to write about university professors having affairs with much younger students, and how emotionally difficult it is for the professor

Thanks. Very same. It's probably very obvious from the subject of my story this week.
