With the current book influx of this century, every concept is overdone as original ideas get harder and harder to get. This goes parallel with the fact that most writers write shit which unique's purpouse is to be sold. Thus, again, the Ecclesiastes is proven right as for today. How do you create something new? As time passes, it gets tougher to achieve something fresh, for everything is cliché. The era of mass production, mass selling and mass stupidity. There's no coming back.

Makes sense considering most ""people"" view human emotions as flaws which to eradicate.

>bad writing is human emotions now

[Anonymous No.11599683]

I don’t have a problem with writing about depression, but recently it seems like more and more people are just mopey and label themselves as depressed in an attempt to give their moping more weight.

>I felt kind of bad once. No one can possibly understand my depth of emotion.

[Anonymous No.11599722]

What a book is about is, quite frankly, irrelevant. The artistic merit of a book is hardly in its plot. I assume you are smart enough to already know this -given that you are in a literature board-, so why did you bother to create this shitty bait thread? Are you that desperate for attention? Have your (you) and be on your way.

>Now go and brag of thy present happiness, whosoever thou art, brag of thy temperature, of thy good parts, insult, triumph, and boast; thou seest in what a brittle state thou art, how soon thou mayst be dejected, how many several ways, by bad diet, bad air, a small loss, a little sorrow or discontent, an ague, &c.; how many sudden accidents may procure thy ruin, what a small tenure of happiness thou hast in this life, how weak and silly a creature thou art.
