I don’t have time to finish this but this is pretty fucking good so far, it’s rare to see this much effort in posts here besides our beloved semi-comprehensible schizowojak poster. This is actually a really helpful summary of some parts of Grant’s Typhonianism for me (which I’ve been trying to get into a while but have been putting off) and the theory of hyper-time surprisingly matches in many ways with my own eccentric theory of time collated from eccentric sources like Gurdjieff and the mystical experiences of Philip K. Dick. I may respond to this more in-depth later, I want to give it the time it deserves

Idk, i think my prose is decent, and usually when someone gives me a story to write i can write a decent one, but when i try to make up a story myself i dont know how to pace it or keep the flow or anything, its like just random tangents of different things going on that don't really flow together like a schizo or something
like i can think of scenes in my head and write them down fine but when i try to connect it to a story i just dont know

So which creative writing student would be worse /lit/?

Or
