Why has there been no truly great millennial author? Not one

There has been no truly great author since the 1950s. Something about our civilization doesn't produce them anymore.

I’m trying to hone my craft desu. Just u wait!

jon fosse

proved his point

The amount of zoomers reliant on pharmaceuticals says otherwise. I'm not punching down though, I genuinely feel bad for the zoomers. It's disheartening to see each generation degenerate further and further into a total lack of agency.

They will be discovered after the fact, if at all

Sufjan Stevens, if you're counting poets

what do you mean by truly great?

Truly great authors are those whose work stands the test of time. The oldest millennials should be around 41, which still gives them time to write something great, let alone be recognized for it.

Zoomers aren't even human, they're neutered lab rats hooked to digital dopamine dispensers

>looks for imitations of institutionalized authors
>disregards great authors who do something new
>"where are all the great authors?"
>"I can't see no truly great authors!"

jk rowling?

Rowling is Gen X, she predates millennials.

>too mentally fragile to sing in a band
do zoomers really

>he would celebrate his 60th birthday this year

Also he isn't great.

Who’s this?

It’s been really sad to see zoomers to be honest. You were never around to see the millennial backbone. People born on or after 91 are cancer.

when were you born grampa?

because we don't have perspective yet. or did you just want to complain about milennials?

When were you born puddin pop?

Bassnectar though

OP is a mess

fpbp

Cormac McCarthy

obv there's no hard cut off in reality but out of convenience I put millennial birth years as 1980-1996

gen x

He was born in the 1880s he doesn't count

Just zoomer cope

Brandon Sanderson

i could be the great millennial writer but im too stressed from being a creative

I will be the first and only.

deadass frfr no cap

?? He was born in 1933 and his first novel was published in 1965.

serious question, what would millenials write about?

Same thing any generation writes about.

comedic bromances between a master and his butler?

Change butler for sassy cleaning lady and actually, yes.

Our greatest minds wasted their talent on shitposting. Zoomies will be even worse given their smaller attention spans.

Iraq war, American decline since 9/11, being poor, internet addiction, FOMO, etc.

"I say, Consuella", said Ryan, the multibillionaire cryto investor ,"it seems my aunt doris wants me to visit during the holidays, which mean i wont be able to go to bet at the horseraces."

"...Si, senor"

millennials are burn out losers who are addicted to porn and the internet. there is no great insight to be gained from these people. there's no interesting stories there. no interesting lives led. zoomers are probably going to be even worse but i mean nofap is a big thing amongst them so who knows.

His first published work was in 1959. Technically counts as 1950's

>Iraq war, American decline since 9/11, being poor, internet addiction, FOMO, etc.
Sounds like terrible topics

No zoomers I know use pharmaceutical drugs. That's more a millennial thing.

why is it a 16 year period instead of 20?

FUCKING millennials

t. 1985

Sorry, but Tao Lin is good.
