@mischievoustomato okay I gave the book that inspired this post to fable and told it to take the ideas and general plot, make it a 50 page short story with new characters and setting and use the style of an actually good writer, the result is indeed better.

@mischievoustomato they probably can.
something i feel with many modern books i start is that even if they have some good ideas, the pacing and writing isn't really good. halfway through i'd rather read a synopsis on wikipedia.

@lebronjames75 nice stories. reminded me of https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/1966/04/16/the-balloon
The New Yorker“The Balloon,” by Donald BarthelmeFiction, from 1966: “It was agreed that since the meaning of the balloon could never be known absolutely, extended discussion was pointless.”Replying to @cell@shitposter.world
