Hi there!

You seem to have made a bit of a mistake in your post. Luckily, the users of 4chan are always willing to help you clear this problem right up! You appear to have used a tripcode when posting, but your identity has nothing at all to do with the conversation! Whoops! You should always remember to stop using your tripcode when the thread it was used for is gone, unless another one is started! Posting with a tripcode when it isn't necessary is poor form. You should always try to post anonymously, unless your identity is absolutely vital to the post that you're making!

Now, there's no need to thank me - I'm just doing my bit to help you get used to the anonymous image-board culture!

Chuck Palahniuk is a fantastic author. A really, really great writer. Most of the hate directed at him is from people who can only focus on surface plot, and reside in the "anti-consumerism and loathing of contemporary western society is so cliche, 'try-hard and edgy' " category. As a storyteller he is great, as a man who can sculpt immaculate paragraphs he is even better, and as someone who has perfect command over the English language he is magnificent.

A few of the many reasons we like him as a writer:

⇒Use of grammatical devices: metaphor play, syntax structure, paying attention to meter, multiple underlying themes, pronoun variation, free indirect style for different characters, burying the first person perspective, creative use of split infinitives...

⇒Plot structure: effective deviation from linear, subtle foreshadowing, metaphorical physical devices...

⇒And his perfect structure: He trims all the redundant fat from his prose to focus on his stylized narrative which uses, among other things, almost poetic repetition of words and phrases. He mixes right, left and middle branching sentences with ingeniously placed emphatic words to mimic the plot; he's not a clumsy author at all, and has a perfect command over his scenes.

Palahniuk even prints off each page and sits with a pen, finely tuning hard and soft syllables to improve parsing. It's undeniable that he really knows what he is doing as an author, and it shows. He is a very good writer.
