Correlation does not equal causation.

Are you also developing a hypersensitivity that makes any opportunity to drop your self-awareness appealing, or just the alcoholic part?
>>
>>7843883

I like Bukowski. Pulp was great. Burning in Water Drowning in Flame was also good.

Alcoholism wont help your writing. If you don't have prior talent and interesting life experiences then your works will just be some drunk anons autistic scribblings.

I did this for a few years. It was a fucking terrible idea, now I'm an alcoholic.
>>
You're retarded. You don't want to be a writer, you want to look like one. Faulkner wrote like shit when alcohol took over him.
>>
You are so pathetic and sad.
>>
>>7843877
Best not play that game. There are far better ways for you to make your ideas flow without over-analyzing them.

How do you know Faulkner wrote like shit when he was drunk?

So...I'll be Joyce?

I've been having sex with a male the past few weeks for the same purpose. Well, a transexual but it still counts.
>>
I was drunk last night and all I wrote was 300 Skype messages to an engaged ex-girlfriend about how I miss fucking her. Technically I also called two other girls cunts, and pasted Unabomber quotes to my friend.

When does pathos transform into something dignified? Mine always comes out like this.

This seems to the equivalent of those socialists who dress up like 19th Century Proletarians or Maoist Guerrillas

Well, having no talent and being a boring shitstain to boot (from what I gather from your post), your chance of becoming a great writer through drinking are exactly nil. But by all means, keep up the drinking, if it kills you somewhere along the way it will be no great loss.

being this bizarrely venomous about a random anonymous post when you have no real information about the poster says more about you than about your target

you wanna talk about it big guy? i'm here for you

>tfw became a great writer to justify an alcohol problem
All according to keikaku. Shh, don't tell those academic imbeciles.

>>7844221
not that guy, but fuck off and die you supercilious nebbish

So many people think they can make up for lack of talent with defects of character.

>>7843877

dude alcoholism is not chill.... i just realized after a year of heavy drinking that i'm doing it to cope with depression

i was like "nah i'm not depressed" but really i just drink whenever i feel it coming on

i feel tired and generally unhealthy all the time and it fucks with my sleep and productivity
