Various /lit/ publications have come and gone: The Lit Quarterly, Pinecone, The April Reader, and Ideology, to name a few. There have been collaborative works, like Coronameron, The /lit/ Annotated Moby Dick, Legacy of Totalitarianism in a Tundra, and The Complete Works of God II. Some of these projects were one-offs, some were serialized. Some /lit/ projects, like Unreal Press, are still hanging on but are plagued by drama, and some, like &amp, seem to be rapidly in decline.

Also related are the solo writers of /lit/, composed of various namefags and shills who frequent the board: MNM-DR, John David Card, Zulu Alitspa, Frater Asemlen, Horia Belcea, Ogden Nesmer, Lewis Woolston. There are also those who did not come from /lit/ but are /lit/-adjacent simply because they are discussed here so frequently: Mike Ma, R. C. Waldun, Bronze Age Pervert.

This thread is for the discussion of the history of /lit/ writing and the future of /lit/. Why have so many /lit/ projects failed and fallen apart, and what do you think is next for the scene? Does anonymity vs pseudonymity vs. the use of real names make a difference in the success or failure of these projects, and the way in which these projects are perceived? Of the works that /lit/ has produced, are there common characteristics and themes shared between them? Is there a definitively /lit/ style of writing? Has /lit/ produced anything truly great, and if not, do you believe that it will in the future?

I'm kind of fascinated by Robert James Cross.

He really does seem like a bit of a narcissist. Most of his contributions in the writing Discord are anecdotes about conflict where he ended up getting the upper hand and coming off looking witty and zany. Like he can't resist putting a narrative spin on everything that preserves his image.

That, and his name and his Discord pfp give off this weird self importance (in his pfp he even has the dead eyes of a narcissist). It smacks of someone who's thought about their outer presentation so much that they've lost perspective and can't see how weird they're coming across, or how repellent.

Robert, if you're reading this, stop using reptile-brain ego to protect yourself. Constructing a false self like this only brings you more stress in the long run, and only makes your unhealed trauma more raw and painful.

Be okay with who you are. I love you.

(But if I had to guess, I'd say Shards was a bad book, more likely to be a self-branding effort than a good story. I don't know though - I'll read it when there's an epub)

I'm a writer. How am I not supposed to put a narrative spin on shit I've been through? It makes it palatable for both me and the person reading it.

Narcissism is just a buzzword anyway. Not everyone who uses anecdotes or talks about the shit they've overcome is a narcissist. I'm not going to apologize for talking about my life.

It's the autonomous robot people who have extreme social anxiety and/or had a boring monotonous life who should be apologizing to society for their trying to become writers with nothing interesting to say.

Misrepresentation. I didn't say you shouldn't. I just criticised the type of narrative spin you use.

Irrelevant appeal to absurdity. Doesn't make me wrong about you.

>It's the autonomous robot people who have extreme social anxiety and/or had a boring monotonous life who should be apologizing to society for their trying to become writers with nothing interesting to say.
You're just constructing a person to attack here so you can pat yourself on the back for being publicly assertive in some way. If you're trying to imply I'm one of these people, you don't have enough evidence to go on.

>Not everyone who uses anecdotes or talks about the shit they've overcome is a narcissist.

Just to add, you slipped up and completely gave away your sense of superiority here. "What, normal people with boring lives? They must have NOTHING to say. Ha, I'm so much more interesting than them. They're not people with valid outlooks and hopes and fears and emotions going through the human experience, they're autonomous robots! They're BENEATH me."

It's a problematic one that limits empathy and breeds entitlement. Most healthy people have learned to keep it in check more than you do. And second, you were saying you were "just making your writing palatable" a second ago, now you're admitting to being up your own ass.

Read the fucking room. This is an ANONYMOUS forum. Generally speaking, excessively talking about yourself is going to be seen as arrogant and tone-deaf, because it goes against the site's culture. Namefagging is one thing, and there's nothing wrong with using the occasion anecdote if it's actually relevant, but showing up in every thread and bragging about yourself in such a repetetive and uninteresting way shows that you're massively self-absorbed. Just because you find your own life endlessly fascinating doesn't mean that anyone else does. And it comes off even worse because you combine it with tactlessly money-grubbing and hawking your book.

If Jason Bryan's a perfect example of a grandiose narcissist, then you're a perfect example of a vulnerable narcissist. Two sides of the same worthless coin.

Bruh... there are no rules. Why are you trying to operate by some hidden playbook?

Narcissism is art, anytime you create and make something and try and charge money for it, it is because you're under the assumption that your shit has some value and someone else could enjoy it. Writing, especially, will attract narcissists because you TRULY have to believe in your hallucinations and delusions inside your mind that tell a story and enable you to string it together with words. It's not like being a mechanic or a chef where someone else designed the part/someone else slaughtered the cow and you're putting together the pieces/assembling a tasty meal, no, the writer is assembling images inside their brain into words on a screen. You fart-sniff until you can decide "okay, this is a story that I need to tell", at least that is how it operates inside my brain.

Artists are, generally, fucked up people. You have to be. The gateway to creation is a pandora's box, and opening your mind up to create and imagine does crack open the veil between normality and madness. Is it really surprising that the creators of "The Matrix" both fart-sniffed so hard that they both became trannies?

Obviously artists deal with mental issues and many talented and non-talented artists go on to use drugs, get in accidents, fuck up their lives, etc, but that is the price of having a creative mind. If you want to see what supreme narcissism actually looks like, look into the wellness industry, now there you will find the absolutely most fucked up people you can imagine.

The creators of The Matrix are good examples of people who fart-sniffed too hard. Obviously they DESERVE to fart-sniff as they created a classic film with iconic memes like "the redpill", but they overdosed sooooooo hard on sniffing their own farts that even their gender became something they saw beyond. They didn't believe anything could limit them in life because they sniffed so much of their own farts. Most normal people are based in somewhat of a reality and they understand that no matter how good they feel about themselves/how many of their own farts they sniff, that life has certain limitations that you can't expect other people to kowtow to.

When you have enough narcissism AND you've sniffed enough of your own farts, then nothing can limit you, this is where people trip over themselves into psychotic episodes and real mania and convince themselves of their own delusion, which isn't healthy. People like Jason Bryan don't necessarily believe they're great writers, yet, and the narcissism only serves to keep them writing and trying to improve. Embracing some narcissism is important for the artist, because if you didn't pump up your own tires, you could easily find yourself being successful in a 9-5 job and lose the desire entirely to write and prove that your narcissism had some utitlity.

Another profession that has a ton of narcissists is nursing. Women who are nurses are often huge whores and closet narcissists. A lot of them know it and feel bad about it, which is why they go into nursing because if they're helping others, they feel better about themselves.

I've dated several nurses and known groups of nurses, as a group, those women were crazier than most artists you'd meet.

For some reason, nursing attracts young women who are hot and crazy and they end up old, fat, and depressed nurses at 40-50+, I bring this up because being an "artist" attracts crazies at a similar rate, because you have to have a certain type of mind to be creative, and you have to have a certain type of mind to be a nurse.

People like Jason Bryan know they are shitheads, but they at least try and create and entertain other people with their shitheadedness. How many of us that visit /lit/ can say "I am not a shithead" and truly believe it? We're probably all shitheads because we actually believe that there is a comforting space inside our minds that we can produce content from, or imagine the worlds that other people create with their words. At least being a shithead, I know there's something in my mind, shit, and I'm okay with that. My biggest fear is just giving up and becoming a wagie again and just going through the motions of life without even shit inside my mind. It is so easy to lose yourself in a routine serving others at a job, probably why nurses love long hours because they turn into automatons where they don't have to think about who they are.

I don't agree that most (good) writers are narcissists. Yes, writers tend to be introspective people, but you're confusing introspection with self-absorption. I'd argue that the best writers are self-aware people with a keen sense of empathy and insight into others' perspectives, which are qualities that narcissists inherently lack. And acknowledging that your work has value and that you have a talent for writing isn't narcissistic; it's basic self-confidence, and is generally grounded in some kind of observable reality. Narcissists are delusional and have an inflated sense of their own superiority that doesn't match up with reality. Besides, writers have to be willing to learn from the work of others and to accept criticism in order to improve. Narcissists believe that their own perspective is more valuable than anyone else's and react to criticism by seething and dismissing it outright.

>>22858969

>a far cry from the avant-garde literary rebels you picture yourselves
We're so far from the mainstream culture, there is no path to any influence if you're not a puppet for the establishment. They give all the book awards to darkies and homosexuals in Canada. Every white guy published in this country has been through the good goy factory system (University) and there are no beer-swilling rebellious writers named Kyle who support themselves via drywall labour, it is all soft dorks and complete vaxxed faggots that write and get published.

It is what it is.

500 million from the government of Canada to fund shit like this, just look up who they gave the awards to.

Just think about this... the government spent $500 million dollars to astroturf arts and culture in Canada for social engineering purposes. Women, the primary target for literature, is reading nothing but books by black people who win all the awards here and those tradpub books fill the good goy factories. (Universities)

Considering that the guy is getting half of your royalties, he should be resolving any issues with the ebook version and republishing it to Kindle immediately.

If he's lazy, then so am I. I should have had a Kindle version ready to go. Hartley hasn't fucked me over yet, as many of you said he would. He sent copies to the people I told him to and has sent me the sales figures every time I've asked. I don't think he's lazy at all. This isn't his primary source of income. Just as writing is not mine. You're conflating your lack of effort in the tings that bring you joy and projecting your insecurities onto Ryan and I.

Canada is ground zero for the globohomo experiment where they fill the important positions with puppets, import foreigners who will NEVER be Canadian by the millions, and they socially engineer the culture to put straight white guys at the very bottom of the totem pole while propping up the totally incompetent.

Speaking purely about books, there are NO modern Canadian books that reflect the true state of Canada. Every book that wins some award is written by a non-white, about non-whites and is so far removed from what is happening today in this country as to be completely detached from the culture. We have so many white people dying from poisoned drugs, our social movements are restricted to supporting things outside of the country like fucking Gaza, and there has STILL been no justice for the people like me who were fired from our jobs and banned from society for 8+ months for refusing a "vaccine" that:
a. didn't stop people from transmitting it
b. enabled the largest transfer of wealth upwards
c. was completely not even needed by 90%+ of the population
Yet are there ANY books or writers that have more than 10 followers who speak on this? No.

Our entire culture is 100% astroturfed.

And another hamster since the last one croaked.

Doing a week long driving gig to make some cash quick. Starts Wednesday.

Doing a 2nd Christmas once my kid gets back from luxury living in Las Vegas, she's with her grandparents. I'm in poverty and a total schizo so I'm not welcome around the family.

Someone as autistic and schizo as Jason Bryan is grateful to even live as a hermit in 2024, as so many people like him already OD'ed and died or just necked themselves.

Anyone this schizo cannot help but say what is on their mind, and so much of our society is so astroturfed, fake, and gay that speaking the truth like:

"the housing crisis is manufactured to prop up the value of people's homes"

Is completely and totally schizo in Canada. If you say things like that, you're just laughed out of the room. People think you're crazy if you think things like that.

I remember 10+ years ago when I started seeing a bunch of "anti-white" subtle queues in media and such. When I voiced my opinion on Facebook, people were shocked that I would think that, shocked! Questioning things like "clock boy" or the Trayvon case was seen as schizo things. As time passed, it became more and more socially isolating to voice a skeptical opinion. Of course, then COVID happened.

Being a skeptic turned into being totally persecuted and hated on. They openly broadcast to the world what a piece of shit you are if you don't take the "vaccine", there was massive social pressure. The Jason Bryans of the world were forced to double down. No fucking way was I pumping that "looks up early life" juice into my body. Ever since COVID, there has been nothing but a mockery of anyone investigating the "vaccine" or questioning the narrative. Our entire society is locked in a very narrow window of discussion, and the people INSIDE that narrow window, many of them are rich as fuck. E-celebs propped up to keep the focus on trivial shit like sports or video games, OR keep all political talk within the narrow kayfabe and provide the candidates for the political parties. Social media works to control society and they really answer to no one. I was never convicted of any crime, yet I'm perma-banned from Goodreads without any recourse. Also banned off Facebook permanently.

The grandparents got my 7 year old her own new iPhone, so now she has the algorithm jew pumping her little brain full of globohomo! It was a good run, but it's over. Day of the Rake will be ready for release soon, and I MIGHT be able to afford a BigMac meal with the profits from it. Getting stoked for that goyslop!

Last Christmas i was very sad all the time and i wanted to stop doing it the discord thing bc i felt rlly bad about it but i felt like i couldn’t stop and i emailed him and he emailed me back and said we could talk and he said i was allowed to email him??? And i was so happy and relieved because i thought id we could talk i would feel better and i could tell him the truth about everything and i wouldn’t have to do it any more and the bad feeling would go away and not come back but the n he just stopped responding and i was so anxious bc i didn’t know why and i just needed to talk to him??? He just like gave me false hope i don’t know why he did that and i wanted to tell him everything but i couldn’t because he wasn’t replying at all and i was scared he was already angry and every day i felt worse and i was so upset and i couldn’t even go to class i was crying in the library and i rlly needed to talk to him and i said im sorry pleas e respond but he was mad and he just called them and made them invade my apartment with their guns and get me and i was so terrified and crying and they were very angry and they said i was crazy and they wanted me to be in jail?? V then after that i couldn’t think right anymore and i was scared all the time and everything was bad and i t never got better and i kept hearing them knocking on the door to come and take me all the time i was hearing them knocking in the morning in the afternoon and at night even they were knocking and trying to get me and cuff me and drag me and nowhere was safe anymore because they could always track me and the now the bad feeling never goes away and im scared it never never will and I’ll never get better at all??? I just need to talk to him so i can get better am i really allowed and he really won’t be mad??

Okay, even if it's not Ryan, it's definitely not Ari, and almost definitely not someone who speaks to him. You shouldn't be listening to random people on the internet telling you to contact someone who's called the police on you before.

And Ryan is probably lying, as he has done many times before.

I don’t know if he’s lying i think Ryan is telling the truth he promised he’s telling the truth I’m sorry i just need to talk to Ari I’m sorry okay i just rlly need to talk to him(? And last night i almost did it and i was going to call him almost because i was thinking about last Christmas and how a lot of time has passed and everything is even worse now than it was last year and i was so sad i couldn’t stand it even and i missed him a lot and i keep feeling scared all the time that even though i keep going to therapy and everything im always going to be like this and it’s never going to get better but i said no don’t do it because he said before he will make them do it they will comd get me and hurt me(?? But i really need to do it it’s so hard not to do it and I’m scared that if i get rlly upset soon and do it I’ll have to be in jail? I always want to do it and the only reason i don’t do it is bc im rlly scared of him being mad and i want to respect his boundaries and everything But maybe the anon is right and if i contact him he won’t be mad and we can talk and i won’t have to haunt the threads like they said because im so tired of doing it

Why don't you leave /lit/? You're being pressured by people to do something wrong, and the only other things you see upset you. You'd obviously be better off if you stopped looking at what people say here. Call a help line instead of talking to people here.

If /lit/ had a help line it would answer the call with a recording of a monotone voice saying "kill yourself" for 666 seconds and then hang up.

I can’t leave because it’s like that video with the animated bird eating thr golden nuggets??? Like in the beginning i rlly loved talking to Ari for a lot of reasons and felt very calm and like happy afterwards which was a feeling i usually never had so i rlly wanted more and everything and i never imagined i could like someone so much? but then he forgot about me and i was so sad bc i couldn’t be enough for him to even want to try and I hated myself a lot and for a long time i just got sadder and sadder and i tried meeting other ppl but nothing made me feel good at all i just felt even worse and for a long time i tried not to think about him but it was rlly hard and then i saw that thing in January and i thought it probably wasn’t real but maybe there was a small chance and i had to figure out the truth? So then i listened to the old archived episodes and i hadn’t heard his voice in a long time and when i heard it again it brought everything back and i remembered why i liked him so much in the beginning and listening felt so good bc i missed him a lot and i had been so lonely and it almost felt like talking to him again even though it wasn’t real?? but just like in the bird video it felt good at first but then afterwards it felt bad and i needed more to make the bad feeling go away? And i needed answers to know what was real so then i found the crit archive im sorry and i rlly felt like i could relate to him a lot and everything and also it made me sad and i empathized with him you know but i can’t say all the details bc he would be angry anyway i missed him but i tried to stop thinking about him because i knew it was a bad idea but then i saw his thing in the July &amp and i cried a lot and i was like very worried about him and wanted to be there to help but i told myself not to reach out to him because i would just get hurt again but then the stuff with my dad being sick happened and i fucked up and texted him and he was so angry and cold and it hurt so much that i couldn’t cope with it so i just didn’t think about it and pretended it wasn’t real? And then later talking to him in the &amp threads i could pretend it was like in the beginning and he didn’t hate me and he was happy to talk to me about books and everything again?? Because what i wanted so badly was for him to be happy to talk to me again I wasn’t trying to scare him at all i just wanted to communicate and make him understand that i actually loved him and wanted to help? And then later on all the bad things happened and i ended up doing all of the discord stuff i don’t know but it’s like the bird video i need to talk to him to have the good feeling again but he wont talk to me but like everything is dark and i have to keep trying to get the nuggets of his attention because if i don’t have them i won’t have anything at all and I’ll be too tired to keep going that’s why i can’t leave im sorry

im trying to explain it but my thoughts are all tangled, i explained it better when i tried to write it down before in October in the googledoc I’ve called the helpline before but they always say the same things like it doesn’t matter if Ari hates you bc you are still a valuable person and lots of other people love you but they don’t understand that if he hates me forever then nothing matters

>f he hates me forever then nothing matters
Oh God, do you even have kids together?

Pre-children, love is just a fart, a piss in the wind. Even if you make her wear your arabian goggles and get married, without actually having kids, the love is all just superficial. Reproduction is the ultimate culmination of human achievement between men and women, and all of the fluff, all of the goddamn bullshit like dating and all that fakery, is to put the p in the v and make more humans.

Seriously lady, it's a fuckin' dick attached to a guy. Unless you two have kids, this is all in your head. A fantasy. You must be young and idealistic to have put someone on a pedestal so high.

At least the prompts you make are interesting! Hope you and Ari work things out and can be friends again. Try not to put anyone up on too high of a pedestal, the fall is never pretty.

You should email Ari now. He told me that he wants to talk to you. The anon telling you not to do it is probably Ryan.
