>december 2025>i am forgottenwill The Mack ever put out anything new or am I just supposed to shill this forever
>>24929343buy an ad
seems like he has a poem out, big day for mackaroons (which is what his fanbase is referred to as)
>>24929350t. the unpublishednta btw
>>24929358Self-publishing through Amazon is still not being published. And that's coming from someone with 3 years of high impact sales. Kek. Cope more.
>>24929367overplayed your hand with high impact
>>24929374Wake me up when you can get paid pro rates like 10c per word, chud. Oh yeah, no one wants your cringe prose borne of sub 130 IQ.
>>24929377>per word ratei'm sure your scintillating literature for the local rag about what happened in london last chewsday is very good
>>24929439You have made like 5 dollars self-publishing and I think Amazon took most of that 5 dollars.
>>24929446you are not hurting the feelings of The Mack (pbuh) since I am not him, but it's interesting that your hole is creamed watching people talk about him
>>24929451No one knows who is, retard. I've seen self-pubbed authors at conventions with more presence than him. You are obviously him or his friend.
>>24929343Thanks for sticking around. I’m about halfway through a new novel. It’s slow going because I really want this one to have more polish than CZ. I’ll have something shorter coming out in the new year, but it’s going to be a little while before the new novel comes out. I don’t want to say anything plot wise about the new book thematically its going to touch on immanence/transcendence and how modern man can’t have either. Lots of alcoholism, surrealism and kitschy history facets. I don’t think it will have the dark humor that CZ did but IMO the writing is leaps and bounds better. I wrote the first half of CZ when I was 27, broke and drunk. I think that gives it some charm, but also has a lot of the weaknesses that come from being young and stupid. The wait will be worth it, I promise. I post on my Substack somewhat regularly if you’re interested. substack.com/@wallacemack>>24929367What’s your book? I have no delusions about self publishing, but for an author just starting out it’s a good way to get your work out there. I don’t feel like I’m competing with you. I don’t know why you’re mad about my book. It doesn’t have to be a crab bucket. Btw, I’ve only done very light shilling here. I care more about the feedback than making money. Vast majority of the post on this board about the book were not me.
>>24929959Kill yourself faggot.
>>24929988Lol triggered.
>>24929959>What’s your book?That guy is not only not published, he has never written anything longer than a longform shitpost in his entire adult life
>>24929988Lmao
>>24929343This has been on my radar for a while thanks to the author's shilling. I'll give it a read today. Expect an honest review.
>>24930016Thanks for giving it a shot!
>>24929995Exactly
>>249299956 stories in pro markets and counting.
>>24930260Then why are you giving me a hard time?
>>24930364Because you're a self published author.
>>24930368You seem like a very bitter person.
>>24929959the plot details sound amazing, and as an alcoholic I hope it captures that part really well so I can read it drunk. cannot wait for it to drop :)>>24930260more like 6 cocks in your hole and pounding ahahahahaha
>>24931018thanks! It will be out in 2026.
>>24929959You probably don't remember me but I'm Walter. I published Six Days in the Life of David Valejo to which this board proceed to never give a flying polka dotted shit about. Give up while you're ahead.
>>24931546I've stopped talking about it on here unless someone asks for the epub or starts their own thread. I'm not anticipating or even wanting to become a /lit/ microceleb. I just lurk here. Did you get any good feedback on your book here?
>>24931602No. People here could not get over the cover. The most superficial shit and people won't give anything a try.
>>24931628ill read ur book walter (i read wallace book too)
>>24931628Lmao, then you get permanent faggots like these >>24931631 who read the first page and fill up the thread about how shitty it is instead of using the time to actually read and critique it well enough. This place is dead.
>>24931647I think he was saying that he was going to give the book an honest go. You need to have thick skin here.
>>24931668Don't believe anyone who posts they'll read your book. What they want is attention. Anyone who wants to read your book will do it in silence and make a long EFFORT post later detailing everything they liked or disliked.
>>24931671in the next reply either link an epub or ask your wife to post a video of you hanging yourself, otherwise don't bother
>>24931710I am sorry no one is going to read your book anon, that must hurt more than anything though.
>>24931735did I not say to not bother
>>24931778oh i forgot you own the board, what are you going to do next?
>>24931791I'll complain to John Forchan
>>24931839not him, you might as well take it up the arse
>>24932135looks like twilight fanfiction ahahaha
>>24931628To be fair the cover looks like one of those wordsworth classics covers
Bump
>>24929459The Mack Daddy is a legend in these parts
>>24931546>Six Days in the Life of David Valejoyou can post a link. i will take a look
I just finished it
>>24933480Thanks so much for reading it. I’ve had several readers tell me similar things about the preface so I think I’m just gonna get rid of it. I think all of your criticism stands and I’ve learned a lot from writing m this book. Again, thanks for reading it and taking the time to give your detailed feedback.Wallace
>>24933493When does the next one go out?
>>24933518Have a collection of poems coming out very early in the new year and then another novel later in that year. The new novel won’t be satire and its already much better written imo. I’ve reread Corndog Zen so many times now in the process of editing it and I totally agree that parts are too on the nose. I was much chuddier and angrier when I wrote it. I don’t feel that way anymore and I think the writing has improved dramatically because I’m writing more intentionally.
>>24933493i wrote a film treatment for a screenwriting class which was set in sort of a post corndog zen world and mikey and wrinkles were trying to get across the border, shit got me full marks in the assignment so thank you wallace
>>24933569That’s incredible. Can you post it or send it to me? I’d love to read it. iamsickofthis@protonmail.com
>>24933556>collection of poemsI sleep>another novelreal shit?
>>24933556I liked the part where the protagonists randomly went viral for getting cancelled. Seemed like wishful thinking on your part. Did some part of you hope something similar would happen with Corndog Zen?
>>24933588No to be honest I first started kicking this book around in 2021 when I finished it. At that time and the years before it, it felt like it was pretty easy to get cancelled. It’s kind of delusional to think that some no name author guy from /lit/ was going to get cancelled for playing with stereotypes, but at the time it felt real.Ultimately I wanted the book to be about the absurdity and cruelty of expecting regular people to keep up with the ever changing norms of contemporary society. It’s too on the nose in parts and maybe a little mean but I hope it at least gets that part across.
>>24929459Mack Daddy gave us the Summer of Corndog Zen. It was the best summer ever. I lost my virginity to a beautiful cheerleader under the bleachers. She was only half my age.
>>24933700forgot about corndog zen summer, what a glorious time. still remember my first read while lounging in my balcony in semi shade.
You guys are gonna make me blush
>>24933721Because of Guru Daddy Mack, I am now the proud father of a fifteen year old Bihari son.
>>24936596george orwell was bihari too, so if you're lucky you too might have a retard who can write subpar literature on your hands!
