/lit/ - Literature

Have you ever had reservations of publishing/posting something you wrote because it feels too personal?
Not necessarily "the MC has my name and it says based on a true story on the cover" kind of personal, but still, that it comes from a very personal and "deep" place within you?
I followed the advice of someone to write something that is truly close to my heart and not at all "in" or "hip" right now to ensure it appeals to many people and suddenly, I am very reserved about even telling people about it.

/lit/...when you are tired, but still want to read, do you find that your inner reading voice is at a slower pace than it should be?

For example, when I'm tired and unfocused, my normal inner reading voice will sometimes "draaag ouuttttt wooordddsss", like that. And I have to consciously make it stop.....

Am I nuts?

I didn't read Bataille, and am otherwise unfamiliar with his works. Can you give me the elevator pitch?

If all you pursue is meaningless and your decision is meaningless, your self if it corresponds to an external world is meaningful. If it doesn't is is the only thing that is meaningful, but none of what is outside that has any meaning, including the exertion of your will. Your life has equal meaning in a coma state as it does with what you're doing, and would be equitable in a conscious death form. I recommend you try it out. Y'know, for science.

Thank you, I'm going to sit down for a good think over this. Maybe pick up something by Jung.

>your favourite writers are slowly becoming all women

Does /lit/ like fanfiction at all? I know the genre is chock full of shit, but there has to be at least a few diamonds in the rough, right?
