Clearly the problem is not your writing. It's everybody else.
I keep writing short stories which are too abstract, and I don't think publishers understand what I'm getting at...
based and redpilled
>if I should write more conventional fiction to get something published
>or keep writing weird shit.
There's a fairly obvious third option, and that is the one that I would recommend.
kms?
It’s not about critique, I didn’t mention anything about that. I said to “ground the discussion”. As it stands you’re basically just blogposting, why should we engage with a damp squib who just wants to whine?
obviously engagement with this damp squib isn't too much effort because you keep replying. look, pretend I never submitted anything; would you yourself write stuff you are not happy with just to get published.
no, I might be a fag, but I believe in my artistic integrity
You should just keep banging your head against the wall
Try writing a conventional story. When you are unable to get that published, then you will realize that your stuff actually isn't actually that well written.
Borges' shit was pretty clear tho lol. Maybe you're not building the foundation of the myth properly (you need an anchor of realism).
But also: post some you enormous faggot.
