>> No.9577948

Wrong. Outlandish prose gets boring within 100 words. Look at Henry Darger. He's a wacky dude with a 2,000 page novel but nobody reads it because he's fucking retarded.

So how are you funding your research if not welfare or work? Do you live with parents?

I'd be interested in reading by the way.

Post to scribd or something. Don't just link the PDF download, trust me.

>>9576937
I'm interested, OP. Excerpt from the Vegetarianism or Etiquette subchapters?

>> No.9578062

OP here.

>>9577992
Thank you.

>Funding
I worked for two years full-time after graduation while doing the research (i.e. reading and compiling notes). I have since been living in a B&B owned by a family friend. I pay £200 in rent each month from my savings. Currently have £4400 in my bank account.

>>9578043
Thank you.

I'm still trying to figure out how to go about publishing it in a way that doesn't confuse things or have it fall still-born from the upload folder. Maybe an excerpt would be a good idea, though without context I fear some potential readers may just dismiss it having read only a small part.

>> No.9578089

Op, assuming you're a straight guy, are you single? And if not, would you like to meet up and talk or maybe more, if you're ever in Glasgow? I'm a 22 year old girl studying eng lit and I'm interested in what you're doing!

Op has potential for becoming a cult leader going by the responses here. Like a modern day unabomber.

Also as someone who found solace in those same books, I advise you to look for an adderall prescription. You still keep your lucidity and ideas, but none of the sadness that comes from mental exhaustion.

It was ok. I'd give you a passing, but slightly offensive grade for it. if you fixed your shit and edited it might be 'good'

It reads like a free write kinda thing where you had to pound out homework that you never actually read once you where done. It take me like an hour to actually go through it and try to figure out what your trying to say.
