The comparisons to Lovecraft were apt.

This does the themes of The Road even shorter and more clearly than The Road itself does.

Is it more reminiscent of Lovecraft or Nabokov, in your opinion?

I implore you, /lit/, to listen to my story in its entirety before shrugging this off as another Card post.

The man parading himself as the titular, J. D. Card, is a fraud, a miscreant, and any other roguish epithet that could befit a man of such ill-repute. He is not the original thought-mind behind. What he has peddled to you all, like a snake oil salesman, is a fraudulent product. A Chinese counterfeit. He has advertised a sham on our dear board. MY rough drafts.

I am the real creator of the Tsalxhaan series: John David Card.

You see, J D. Card was an associate of mine. We graduated together as Wharton School of Finance alumni in 2017 and have kept in sporadic touch throughout the years since. Recently, we had been shooting creative ideas back and forth and he relented that he had hit a sort of stint in his life. Finance school had not gained him the necessary connections nor ability to pursue a career in screenwriting, and he feared that he would never have a chance to put his name out into the world.

I told him: "Worry do not. You and I, Cards, are bred from patterned stock. Our skin, our blood, a tapestry woven. If I, David the Card create, then so too can the John. Come my brother and we will envision paradise, or envision hell, together."

And so I showed him my work. My magnum opus. The Tsalxhaan series.

Something changed in John that day. A darkness glazed his eyes and I knew in the back of my mind, even then, that I had lost my friend forever.

The next day, I logged on to rework my rough draft and found that all my files were gone and I found the Tsalxhaan series being advertised all around the world. My life's work, raw and unfinished as it was, marketed under another man's name. I had never experienced infidelity until now.

I take pride in my work. Love, affection, honor, all these qualities I pour into my writing. That is why my series has taken so long to come out. That is why I have a stolen rough draft wading through the market as I pour the finishing touches into PEOPLE MOVER. And I am heartbroken.

I hope that you believe my tale, but worry not, faith alone is not what I require. I shall leave you with evidence: a comparison of John and David's work, so you will see the difference between the two and decide for yourself.

Please, do not ask me to post my entire work. I can't risk my life's work to be stolen yet again. I think in just one comparison, you will see a marked difference.

This is not bait, this is not shitposting, nor shilling. As ludicrous as this tale is, it is true. Thank you for listening to my words /lit/.
