/lit/ - Literature

>>21045441
Not literature

>literally admits to stabbing a guy
He's from Africa, so I'm not surprised.

>>21045453
No, it's not, but people have to do something about the shit state of literature nowadays, and part of that is building a platform for weirdos to get their name out there. The question is whether its entertaining along the way.

>>21045453
he discusses his writing in the podcast, anon

>>21045441
Most interesting part of these podcasts is hearing what other anons read or are inspired by.

>>21045453
it's /lit/erally about a fucking novel...which is literature, you absolute faggot.

>>21045441
>admits to stabbing a guy
he's South African living in SA. at some point you end up stabbing someone or something

I’m impressed nobody else brought up the dogfucking

>>21045975
timestamp or GTFO

>>21045463
this

>Equestria Girls fan fiction turned into a real novel
Is this what a /lit/ author is in 2022?
All we have to show for 21 millions posts is Gardner and this man twisted by autism and ponies.

yeah that's not so bad. now post benis

>>21046026
>man
LA is obviously a tranny

>>21046042
I wish. I stopped passing long ago.

>>21046056
>>21046042
Fuck both of you. If I Google “these two anons are retards”, I would get one billion results.

>>21046072
How many results does “L.A Labuschagne pony crossplay” bring up?

>>21046097
Anon, you're going to have to take one for the team and let us know. I ain't putting that in my search history.

Things I'm glad I never got into because they seem to turn you into a fruit
>Twitter
>Being a tranny
>Podcasts
>Internet leftism
>Being perpetually butthurt and nagging everyone while still wanting to seem cool and subversive
>Being rich but idolizing grungy "alt" subcultures when they are several years dated and sanitized enough to be consumed by my class
Wait those are all the same thing

>>21046097
There was a period of ponies and a period of cross dressing, but I can assure you, the two never overlapped.

>>21046150
I still can't fucking believe I read MLP fan fiction.

>>21046150
>>21046187
how long have you been a homosex?

>>21046042
I don't think many people have picked up on it but “she” has consistently used feminine pronouns…

>>21046150
Stop impersonating me cunt. I never cross dressed. I have standards and principles here

>>21046253
>I have standards and principles here
Only the finest of womenswear for L.Ady Labuschagne.

>>21045917
I don't watch YouTube
Fuck off with this zoomershit
Read or fuck off from this board

>>21046271
Literally admitted to being a fashion journo in the cast

>>21046289
nothing wrong with that. faggots gotta eat too

>>21045694
American Psycho and BEE was a surprise. Although Patrick Baitman was unlikeable...

>>21046492
Bateman was a chad. I’d peel his skin off and wear him like a raincoat, let all the losers slide clean off. Deeply inspirational to my work, particularly the itemised lists

>>21046541
Maybe it's just me, but I find psychopathic characters hard to like. Have you read Lolita?

If anyone has actual constructive feedback on the format, on the interviewing skills, etc., this would be a good forum for it. It's a skillset of communication you aren't magically born with.

>inb4 don't interview austistic crossdressing bronies

>>21046799
My favorite parts are when you talk about other work, short stories, movies, etc important to the authors. Charlie Rose did this a lot, and would only spend a fraction of the time talking about the book being promoted.

>>21046825
>Charlie Rose
a jew molester abusing his power

>>21046666
Thoroughly enjoyed it

>>21046799
I take offence to the first one. As stressed I have a different mental illness

>>21047063
Eh. He was a good interviewer.

>>21045441
Don't know about your gay podcast and don't give a shit either

>>21047209
I don't get it. Can you explain?

>>21045441
Not literature

>>21047898
summer's over

>>21047929
yeah but it is though, fagpants. cope harder

>>21047974
Hey! Isn't that gun in the book? I thought it was an antique at the time.

>>21048007
you thought right. it is an antique. totally legal. i promise!

>>21048024
Revolvers are so goddamn sexy.

>>21048060
upvote

>>21047974
Nice. This will be the remastered cover

>>21048785
higher rez version

>>21045441
Can you stop shilling your shitty podcast here ? Nobody gives a shit.

>>21049034
Can you stop bitching? some of us are interested in underground literature, and considering this is an anonymous image board on the topic of literature you shouldn’t be surprised.

>>21049365
Larping literally who amerishart twitter tards with 200 views on youtube aren't undergound literature, nigger.

>>21049034
It's much more difficult to write or create content instead of throwing out short insults. Nobody will remember your comments. Try creating something and then you'll understand.

>>21049668
You will.

fuck off

Next /lit/ piece on my reading list, Labo. Besides Remembering the Dead.

>>21049519
>americashart
Thanks for letting me know you don’t even know what you’re rallying against.
Also, it literally is underground lit, cry about it faggot

>>21049837
Why would I. Again, stop shilling your shit here. Post it on reddit.

>>21049947
Again, blow it out your ass and kys. I’m not OP, just some people on this board actually like reading, and this is unironically the place for it

>>21049966
Look here tranny. I'll give you a pass on this because you won't. Next time when you shill your shitty podcast write a better post shilling it.

>/unreal/ press podcast guy gets an interview. literally admits to stabbing a guy for shits and giggles
Turn it into
>/unreal/ press podcast guy gets an interview with some fellow who wrote X, is known for Y and has done Z
Some literally who interviews some other literally who "admits to stabbing a guy for shits and giggles" is not literature, and it will never be, just like you're never going to be a woman.
Not even Hermetix shillers are this shameful.
There's no need to make a new thread every time this shit has a new episode either.

>>21050025
didn’t even read (I’m taking after you ;))

>>21049947
I would sooner kms than make a plebbit account.
>>21050029
There's an active call to shill your work in /wg/ and &amp general (lol). Nobody else actually wants to read /lit/ work.

>>21050053
>&amp
I actually like the magazine. Any news on issue 15?

>>21050342
Nothing on the next issue, but there's a best-of being made for issues 001-014. There's a list of the candidates so far which you can comment on.
https://docs.google.com/document/d/1TMyRTrB6SEjbDFkFixaMqNpr0--Fb3T9Pdv1x2s7Z7g/edit?usp=sharing
unofficial.drivel@gmail.com is the email of the guy organising it (me). Shoot me a list of your favourites if you've got time.

>>21050376
I did awhile back, thought you were going to lock it soon. We're there any pieces you were in the fence about?

>>21050460
On the fence

>>21050460
Were
Fuck man...

>>21050376
when does this compilation issue drop?

>>21050460
It was locked for a bit so I could re-organise the ranks, but it's all open again. Any pieces you see with stars that don't have comments (or have little said about them, mostly pieces with 1x stars) are probably the most important to focus on, or if you see a piece in the section below that you really like (since all those are likely to be culled unless someone vouches for them).

For specific pieces, I'd say Suburbpunk is one I'm on the fence about, pic related (Honest Work, 010) since it was recently recommended but nobody else commented on it, and maybe Phantom Tollbooth as well. But again, anything single-starred is good to focus on.

If you have suggestions for pieces you don't see included, feel free to tell me and I'll put them up; I don't consider the current list complete, though I'll have to make a final call at some point.

I also have PDFs of each individual piece in a folder (at least for the starred stuff), which should make reviewing a little easier.

>>21050502
It'll probably be sometime in October, but I haven't got a specific date in mind yet. Got some things to reconsider.

Admittedly I've been slow, but I feel like there was a loss in momentum in getting people to make suggestions for the list, which is definitely the most important component. The /&amp/ threads in general were getting pretty misguided, so I'm gonna work on some of this solo for a bit. Since there are already some pieces that I'd say are definitely going to make the final cut, I'll try to mock up something with those to get an idea of how this will shape up--that'll give me something to present on here and drum up interest with.

>>21050725
>Got some things to reconsider.

are you reconsidering what works will make the final cut or just reconsidering the whole project in the first place?
