can't stop writing genre fic

Embrace it, pack it and sell it in order to afford enough alcohol to forget you have ever written it.

Write about a writer who can't stop writing genre shit.

I'm not sure why the line in the sand you've drawn for yourself is genre fiction

Fiction is a waste of time beyond entertainment anyway, if you're going to write fiction just write what you enjoy or can turn into a quick buck

I'm bad at Super Smash Bros. Melee but when I play with my friends, I still get a lot of pleasure from the Pyrrhic victory of Kirby back-throw suicides.

Here's another example.

It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a single man in possession of a good fortune, must be in want of a waifu.

I didn't mean to type that! But I did! And now it's garbage!

I can't write a friggin normal passage!

Look at this, I sat down to type out a new novel:

All happy families are alike; each unhappy family is banished to Mithras. Everything was in confusion in the Oblonsky’s castle. The wife had discovered that the husband was carrying on
an intrigue with an elf girl, who had been an enchantress in their family, and she had announced to her husband that she could not go on ornipeduring in the same castle with him.

How do I fix this?

Read Borges if you haven't already.

Kirby is pretty good in Melee - but then most characters are unless you're an autistic wannabe tourneyfag, since the game is designed around reaction time and fast decision making instead of the slow hyper defensive crap of Brawl and 4

just because people couldn't beat down b when you were a kid doesn't mean shit

There's nothing wrong with writing genre fiction, but there's also no excuse for being so fucking terrible at it.

You should check out project rho if you want to go for a more hardsci angle.

This page^ pretty much lays out a perfect backstory for how and why Mars is colonised that you can tweak to your liking if you want to get straight into the fun bits.

This >>9485637 if you write good scifi or fantasy, I don't see anything wrong with it. I'll always welcome a good story about space travel as long as its not hollywood-tier science. As long as you're not just trying to be Star Wars or Game of Thrones, I don't see what's wrong. I could be biased, but I'd say a story set on a generation ship wandering the depths of interstellar space or about humans finding alien artifacts/ life (and done WELL) could give you a lot of room to have all of your pondering existence or whatever.
