/lit/ - Literature

What are some good writers with "understated" prose?

>over 300 images like that.

I highly recommend to anons here that struggle with actually starting a project and staying with it to write something on royalroad. It doesn't matter if you think it's trash, but it can be great practice and let you understand what you're doing wrong and let you apply these lessons to more serious works later on.

>go to goodreads to see what other people have to say about a book and if it might be something I'm interested in reading
>it's all just women giving reviews like "I gave this book two stars because of the way women were depicted, it's very problematic and the book was clearly written by a male author. Also, I like just totally couldn't relate to any of the characters and it was very boring"

Why is it like this?

Hes a mix between robin hood, batman and hitler (the good one not the 6 billion one), very impressive.

>I can guarantee that the reason you are so offended is because you interpreted these posts ( >>11054938 >>11054930 ) to have been made by a single person in an attempt to insult you(?) because they both used images of pepe and quoted the source in the same manner.
Denying that your post was intentionally inflammatory doesn't change the intent with which it was posted. Paired with the second or by itself, the intent is the same. And it is still lazy.

>The concept that my initial post was "intentionally inflammatory" is an invention of your own design, and it is only through the lowest amount of effort that I would point out the simplest of mistakes. My post was not a shitpost. You merely interpreted it as such due to the context you found it in.
Read my previous post for clarification on this point. The manner of your post and the amount of effort applied to it were lackluster. You can do better. You're doing better now, in fact. Like I said before, if you're going to criticize me via insult, at least be clever about it.
Pepe is old and busted without any real supporting text. That is just laziness.

>John R. R. Tolkien
>George R. R. Martin
what did he mean by this?

Is George a master ruseman who hates himself, the world and his art, so he spitefully writes these ruse books to laugh and be disgusted at how people like them? So he put these two Rs in his name to subtly hint at how his work is a satanic blasphemous disfigurement of LoTR?

There are actual fucking muslims on /lit/. There are probably loads on /pol/. Now it's clear where all the jewposting comes from.

O sultan, Turkish devil and damned devil's kith and kin, secretary to Lucifer himself. What the devil kind of knight are you, that can't slay a hedgehog with your naked arse? The devil excretes, and your army eats. You will not, you son of a bitch, make subjects of Christian sons; we've no fear of your army, by land and by sea we will battle with thee, fuck your mother. You Babylonian scullion, Macedonian wheelwright, brewer of Jerusalem, goat-fucker of Alexandria, swineherd of Greater and Lesser Egypt, pig of Armenia, Podolian thief, catamite of Tartary, hangman of Kamyanets, and fool of all the world and underworld, an idiot before God, grandson of the Serpent, and the crick in our dick. Pig's snout, mare's arse, slaughterhouse cur, unchristened brow, screw your own mother! So the Zaporozhians declare, you lowlife. You won't even be herding pigs for the Christians. Now we'll conclude, for we don't know the date and don't own a calendar; the moon's in the sky, the year with the Lord, the day's the same over here as it is over there; for this kiss our arse!

i read all throughout middle school but neglected my free reading for the entirety of high school. Would it make me a pretentious fuckhead if I got back into reading and read all the meme books. I just read lolita, infinite jest, kafka on the shore etc.
