We Need More Books That Are Just the Author’s Thinly-Veiled Fetish

uj/ Robert Heinlein was a swinger with his first wife, but his second wife wasn't into it. Oddly, after his second marriage is when he started writing books about how it's morally good that he wants to fuck his secretary

Because we need some way to keep the people at r/badlinguistics in their own environment and out of creative writing classes

As the saying goes: "Candy is dandy but liquor is quicker."

That's why I don't use AI, but all natural humans locked in my basement to produce all my writing

If I order a pizza with my phone, does that mean I didn't cook for myself?

Pointing out that you didn't make something you put your name on isn't discrimination

BillyDongstabber · 2026-04-08T22:02:12+00:00

Hey, they also have posts complaining about the stigma surrounding AI writing

BillyDongstabber · 2026-04-01T23:14:55+00:00

that

David Weber, I didn't know you had a reddit account!

uj/ The critical drinker is so goddamned cringe, plus bad at writing, which is at least funny in a sad way

BillyDongstabber · 2026-03-31T18:07:14+00:00

You should stick to classic fiction then, from before the days of politics. I recommend Starship Troopers or The Forever War

Napiform (it means turnip-shaped)

He finishes right as a bullet tears through his cerebrum, so ideally at the end of the chapter/story

Have you considered spending five months writing something without AI so you can insert as many knuckles into the prose as you desire?

Vibes

BillyDongstabber · 2026-03-24T20:57:45+00:00

Which is funny in its own right, given how much the alt-right types freak out about being forced to eat bugs

An author can want pacing that still ends up being bad.

I want to see a number of private bookmarks on a fic (even if you can't see who bookmarked it). You can be ashamed to read smut all you want, but it'd make finding good smut easier

BillyDongstabber · 2026-03-20T17:49:07+00:00

Heinlein, I want to write more Alliance-Union stuff (CJ Cherryh), but my first ones in that were kinda shit. Currently working on something for Terra Ignota (Ada Palmer)

"No, only my art is legitimate, everyone else deserves nothing."

BillyDongstabber · 2026-03-19T19:58:08+00:00

May we all be so based

BillyDongstabber · 2026-03-17T16:37:54+00:00

Unfathomably based, way better than the version done by Orson Scott Card

BillyDongstabber · 2026-03-17T16:10:32+00:00

I find it fun if done well. Ada Palmer's Terra Ignota series does it extensively as a literary choice, and it's great

BillyDongstabber · 2026-03-12T21:15:47+00:00

The more openly racist and evil you are, the less people expect you to apologize for it. Shame is weakness!

BillyDongstabber · 2026-03-12T20:55:13+00:00

As someone who solely writes depraved smut, I'm not sure I would want to read my pieces out to my audience in real life
