I am available at anytime of the day for a fistfight or any type of sword or crossbow duel. I just purchased an automatic pistol crossbow. It's a mix between a gun and a crossbow, it's like a pistol but it fires arrows. I killed a goat with a shot in the stomach at point-blank range by alluring it with grass; the beast died three hours later. I will do the same with you. I know that you like grass, like all sheep do.

How's this for a duel?

>there is a valid opposition between fiction and non-fiction
Everything is arche-fiction, my friend.

Here is my question to you: what are the elements of fiction, that make fiction distinct from non-fiction?

Are you implying we start with fiction and reduce it to non-fiction? But how can that be? By what process does it become non-fiction?

>>5254414
>arche-fiction
What's that? DDG has no results.

Non-fiction: I can see a hint of camel toe.
Fiction: I can see myself fucking her furless meat-pie.

The dialogue has to be the worst part of anime. Just drop it

>>5256231
it's not the dialogue that turned me into it

Just a play on his word arche-writing or "writing before writing". Derrida's argument is that those core features that we ascribe to writing in the usual sense are actually in speech and even every other form of phenomena. He calls this core features arche-writing / writing before writing / writing in the general sense.
So it is not that thoughts are an origin, speech its copy and writing the copy of speech — making it a copy of a copy — but that arche-writing is always already before and in everything. This is a kind of deconstructionist reversal of primary and secondary.
As a challenge I'm applying this to the binary pair non-fiction/fiction. However, I need some text (from you anons) that tries to define this opposition to find deconstruction of it already at work in the text itself.

Please mind the quality of /lit/, bad enough as it is.

I'd like to write competent stories myself and I see no other way to learn than actually absorbing what a good work of fiction is.
