What would he be doing today?
What would have he thought of tiktok? The transgender issue? AI literature? current human literature? current american politics landscape?

He's still alive. He used to ghostwrite for Pynchon and did everything from VIneland to Inherent Vice. DFW just faked his death to avoid the pressure from being a rising author while also keeping the works of another alive.

He'd kill himself

He domestically abused a single mother poetess. His ass would've been cooked if he had lived.

I remembered reading "This Is Water" in high school. Meant jack shit to me then, but reread it years later and I was blown away.
And then the meme happened, again

Found out Le Guin died too like a month before I checked out Earthsea and Left Hand
