Plot > characters >>>> themes >>>>>>>>>>>>> proseMurder all literary fags
Oh and pacing goes before plot
>>25420233You must enjoy plot summaries above books, then.
>>25420233I love poetry and I agree. However bad prose can kill a good plot (gravity Rainbow)
>>25420233At last, someone with the courage to tell it like it is.Let's do part of speech next.Verbs > Nouns = Pronouns > Prepositions > Adjectives > Obscenities > Adverbs > Alternatives for ‘said’
>>25420233There are currently 3 threads about plotfags manchildren seething about prose on the catalog
>>25420899But plotfags are retards and prosefags are pretentious retards though.
>>25420901Characterfags win yet again it seems
>>25420233>>25420432>>25420893The highly dubious theory that a work of art is composed of items of content, violates art. It makes art into an article for use, for arrangement into a mental scheme of categories. And is often the case that the ones who adhere to this theory are women and redditors.In short, someone who only sees the content of a work is a brainlet.
>>25420272often the summary is better than the book, yes.
>>25420951Art is just pornography that activates different parts of the brain. The more of your brain that lights up from the porn, the more 'art' it is. If all you light up is the sex part, then it is considered 'mere pornography'But all forms of entertainment are basically just pornography. Simulated experiences of life not being had, which make the brain think it's surviving.
>>25420984trying too hard
>>25420985Not only am I completely serious, I'm also entirely correct. Far more correct than you will ever be.
>>25420988lame
>Literary fiction
>>25420984Pornography has a “content” and is designed to make us connect (with disgust, desire) with that content. It is a substitute for life. But art does not excite; or, if it does, the excitation is appeased, within the terms of the aesthetic experience. All great art induces contemplation, a dynamic contemplation.

>>25420233Structure > Themes > Prose > Characters >>> Plop
Im more into poetry.i used to be real into over complicating things, i would get the theme, theme statement, subject, tone, meter, rhyme, and i would think about all this stuff and think of a bunch of other things.But then i read Kerouac's rules about writing, first thought best thought, instead of thinking of words, think of a movie in your head then write down the words to describe it, to blow on the topic or theme or memory or subject like a jazz player and write a stream of consciousness now when i do write im writing super fast, and its just flowing out. i do edit later though
>>25421920bro listened to garbage advice from a garbage author im dead
>>25421924its allowed me to "just write" without any hesitation, so it is superior to anything you would offer
What he said:>Plot is most important.What he meant:>I need constant rising action to keep my dino-brain engaged.>I need cliffhangers to encourage me to finish the book. >I don't care how ridiculous the plot twists are, just keep them coming: evil twins, faked deaths, betrayals, sudden deaths, split personalities, rubber masks, it was all a dream, etc.>my favorite book definitely has a character with amnesia >what the fuck is a denouement? >I'm easily impressed by series that go on and on well past their prime and never finish.
>>25420233plot springs from the character, just like semen springs from the penis; themes are where it landsyet prose can kneecap characters (or any of the other elements) if it's like a repulsive, disgusting, hag
>>25420233I find it funny that you believe that you can meaningfully separate and judge those things individually, like characters don't exist to serve the plot and a plot is not defined by particular themes. Any attempt to judge them separately of one another ends up with nothing more than meaningless noise
Prosefags are so tasteless that they would gladly praise tiktok goonerslop if only the author had used a thesaurus
>>25422068is it really a capital sin to demand better writing than whatever Frank Herbert produced?
>>25422107Yes
>>25420233Characters > Themes = Prose > Plot
>>25420233You are a woman
>>25422068>Prosefags are so tastelessKek, on top of being an oxymoron thus was said by the indian who reads slop like >>25421026 thinking he's reading scientific articles.
>>25422068This. They suck off the worst writers imaginable and are actively degradeding the medium by constantly screeching "it's actually le good" from the rooftops.
>>25422834>Themes = ProseWtf?
>>25420233And people shit on me for my TAG threads
>>25420984>Art (undefined form of entertainment) is just pornography (undefined from of entertainment)I haven't read the rest of your shit but I'll stop here. It's akin to me saying>Food is just french fries which...Or in your case>Food is just crayons which...Yeah I've used a food anology- since I suspect you are retarded it should suffice
>>25422068Good prose can be minimal too. The fact that you don't seem to know this makes me think this whole thread was a waste of time.
>>25423413>Good proseDoesnt exist
>>25423789No, it does. If you ever read something by a child you'd know.
>>25423789>t. slopsist
what the fuck is prose? get that faggot shit out of here.
>>25420233>endless wars and famines>dig giant hole>throw writers and readers of books into the hole>thousands of years of prosperous civilization ensue
