How many of y'all actually DON'T think you're

Bro, probably half the reason anybody writes is because the want to be heralded as a genius, its good motivation.

Well I don't think so because I haven't published anything yet.
But don't worry, I've already chosen the title for my manifesto.

>>9726515
what is it

me
i just like reading

>>9726520
good title

i'm well aware i have no insight of my own

trick is to plagiarise very well

I'm not the next literary genius, but i will be hailed as one anyway

No, but then again the notion of genius is ridiculous, and will hold you back. Try working for what you desire.

I don't think I'm a literary genius or anything, but I do have a lot of shit I want to write - which, each time I delve into it, I come away realizing I need to read more first.

I think Im the next Lovecraft: great ideas but utter shite at writing.

I don't think I have any virtues desu

It's nice to fantasize for brief periods of time.

im way beyond giving a fuck about that childish shit. achievement is for plebs like money is for poor people.

*mic drop*

>the notion of genius is ridiculous

How do you figure? Do you not think there is such a thing as genius?

>>9727879
how poorly read are you

>>9727882

Quite well read. Just interested in this guy's (your?) opinion.

I only write for fun, and my writing is inspired by pulp fantasy novels. So I know I'm not a genius. Honestly, if you spend time thinking about how brilliant your writing is you're probably a pseud.

>>9726450
This is why you should have an actual career besides writing.

>>9726966
The trick is to learn multiple languages in obscure disciplines so you can cross plagiarize.

I don't even write but rest assured that if I did it would herald a new age of Australian literature

i think im worthless but writing is a form of escapism that i only share with two people. maybe one day ill commit suicide and be praised after one of those two people publishes my shit

>>9726436
I'm definitely not a genius. I know for a fact I'm a fucking idiot. I'm just interested in eastern philosophy and want to know why they preach all this enlightenment stuff. Sounds fucking cool if you ask me I want to try it.

be careful with these kind of threads.
they might rip apart the very fabric of this board's reality.

>>9726436
kinda hyper aware at all the things i dont know/ havent read. desu im intimidated by this board because everyone seems to be "in" on a literary canon that i haven't even brushed. really prevents me from even trying to participate and i just kinda lurk here occasionally

>>9726436
Well, I know I am not the next genius, but I write just to try to tame my thoughts, or to try to convey what I am thinking on paper.

I dont even like reading or writing I just like this board

i am filthy monolingual scum.

delete this thread IMMEDIATELY.

Listen up, chucklefucks. You lameheads who think you're the next big deal? You're not. Know how I know? No, you don't (see what I did there? Of course you don't). The reason I know is because I am. I've more greatness in my little finger than all of you combined.

>>9728438

You've more greatness in your little asshole than all of /lit/ combined.

Greatness of dick.

>>9726436
I don't write, so no, I don't think I'm going to be the next literary genius.

Me. I could ever here for decent recommendations and memes. I can't write worth a damn.

>>9728587
>I could ever here for decent
>I can't write worth a damn.

what did he mean by this?

>>9728593
That was actually autocorrect. I meant that I come to this place for recommendations and shitposting. Not whatever the fuck my phone spit out.

Fuck off, phoneposter.

>>9728613
I only phone post at work and for what it's worth its over WiFi so NipMoot can bannu if he pleases.

I know for a fact that i'm pretty average, and i'm okay with that. Just because i'm average doesn't mean I wont write something that isn't beautiful to me.

True pseuds make posts about how they're not pseuds

>>9726436
I honestly just hope I'm good enough for TV

>>9728097
Lol

Me. I don't even like reading.

Once I pin down the intricate connections between light novels and ancient greek philosophy I'll write my magnum opus and all you brainlets will weep before me.

>>9726436
I used to think I was, but then I found /lit/ and they memeforced me into reading people who are truly great like Pynchon.

I know that I'm stupid as fuck but sometimes I like to fantasize for a little bit even though I know it's never going to be a reality.

>>9726436
I know I'm shite, and I stopped writing years ago.

I write stuff that's fun and mostly accessible with some other shit you can read into it if you want to but it's not really important.

>>9726436
I know my writing is no where good enough. But my ideas are somewhat interesting. I feel like i can build something. I just need to keep at it. Mayhe it'll happen, maybe it won't.

>>9726942
good title!
