/lit/ - Literature

just bought this edition lads, it'll arrive in a couple of weeks, whats should i expect

when did you realize that a single action or life experience is the equivalent of reading dozens of books, and that reading isn't a valid substitute for real life?

for me it was a few months ago, i'm 25 btw

/crit/
new critique thread, for both poetry and prose

stop writing. seriously, stop.

there are too many important books to be read in a lifetime. producing more worthless stuff will do nothing but mislead the reader/searcher and waste his time

i see people creating threads "i don't know what to write", "i don't know what to write": writing something worth to be read is already extremely difficult for people who know how and what to write, you shouldn't write in the first place if you don't have anything to say, as a moral principle. even if you have something to say, chances are a lot of people already said it better.

writing isn't a job
