Everything I write I release for free on the internet for the immediate enjoyment of the masses. There is no reason to go through the bureaucracy of the publishing industry for the sake of a seal of approval stamped on your forehead by some stuffy "intellectual" who will decide whether or not your work will see the light of day. Some random man or woman's arbitrary and subjective judgement of what I write or the lack thereof is not the measure of my work's quality. that would be both genetic fallacy and appeal to authority. The enjoyment of the immediate public is. Call it appeal to populism, I call it an empiric, objective staple of quality. I call it quality testing.

I have this shit right here under my desk, in this wooden plank under the desk in which I stack a bunch of shit. The book is basically stuck. Underneath it a big art book, on top of it too many comic books. Gathering dust.

Modern day pampered humans don't encounter enough meaningful life experience by 25 to write anything of substance. In ye olden days you had the responsibilities of a modern 40 year old at 25. Sure, there are still some who have lived a full enough life by 25 to write meaningfully, but not many.
