i've moved beyond actual books of any quality. now i almost exclusively read amateur fiction better suited as toilet paper than reading material. it's even better when the garbage fiction was originally in a different language and the english translation is also really bad. i'm a wee bit broken.

Pththya-lyi posted:You say that like a ton of authors didn't start out in fan fiction, let alone created their "original" fiction by filing the serial numbers off their fics. It's too late to close the barn door, the horses are already out signing 3-book deals. Naomi Novik, who recently won a Nebula for a great original novel, broke into publishing with a book series based on fanfic that was basically "what if Master and Commander, but with dragons?"

Yeah, Monster of Elendhaven, which I really love, was based on D&D fanfiction. It's a great proving ground for writers imo

Inceltown posted:https://twitter.com/AndrewFeinberg/status/1330343716469547011 the ton of usually sane lefty parapolitics types giving her any benefit of the doubt despite her being a “Venezuela and China are stealing the election for Biden” crank is disheartening folks, remember that being a lawyer isn’t so much an indicator of competence to knowledge or truth as it is a marker of insanity! (this goes for all advanced degrees) also the idea that Bernie won the plurality of the primary vote in 2016 puts a lot of naive faith in the typical Democratic primary voter

This is what happens when kids are brought up on literature that's like 90% 'the kid has a fun adventure with a new friend/adorable animal, oh no the friend/animal dies suddenly right at the end with no real build up or reason'.

Which makes even less sense after you remember that cliffs notes are a thing. You can't get sad at an ending if you're never invested in the story. Problem solved.
