Why is writing literature so hard?

>>	Anonymous Thu Jul 26 22:24:58 2018 No.11524810 >>11524806 literature comes out of a necessity

>>	Anonymous Fri Jul 27 02:01:14 2018 No.11525539 Just be yourself, Wonders will rain from your mind, and be mindful and tell of all the experiences from your life.

>>	Anonymous Fri Jul 27 02:02:28 2018 No.11525542 IF you believe it then write it. There is no wrong way to right as they say

>>	Anonymous Fri Jul 27 02:06:34 2018 No.11525551 >>11524806 It isn't. Do you have anything to say? Do you even want to say it? If not, then that's why. If you do, then I can't help you, mate. Read moar.

>>	Anonymous Fri Jul 27 02:10:43 2018 No.11525562 Because it's hard work while consuming it it's not. Writing is slow, deleting is painful, getting all the pieces to work together is difficult and after two years working on a novel you're fed up of having to deal always with the same fucking story

>>	Anonymous Fri Jul 27 02:34:02 2018 No.11525607 >>11525551 Reading literature doesn't tell you how it was created.

>>	Anonymous Fri Jul 27 03:18:49 2018 No.11525701 >>11525607 are you stupid? how, if not by examining an art form, is one to learn about the composition of that art form? give me a single way, you singleton, or vamoose

>>	Anonymous Fri Jul 27 11:29:49 2018 No.11526961 If you're like me, it's because you always think your writing will never be as good as the masters.

>>	Anonymous Fri Jul 27 13:49:35 2018 No.11527456 >>11524806 You're faking it. If you were in the correct state of mind the hard thing would be NOT to write

>>	Anonymous Fri Jul 27 13:57:13 2018 No.11527478 >>11524806 Maybe you're holding yourself to too high a standard? You need to write lots of garbage before you can start writing well. Some people climb over the wall faster than others, but it can be done. Just keep writing.

>>	Anonymous Fri Jul 27 14:46:37 2018 No.11527691 It's not hard, you suck.
