It's already back. There's like a trillion indie publishers accepting S&S short fiction.

sword and sorcery fantasy was almost entirely derivative slop. this is a common pitfall when writing to fit inside of a preexisting genre

Actually better than "real" literature, which was mostly written by homosexuals and Jews as a way to demoralize you.

Just go read everything Robert E Howard ever wrote, its free. If you're looking for something a bit more recentt try David Gemmell. Legend is one of the best fantasy stories ever written.

You wouldn't want it back from the people who'd make it now.

Just start reading pulp novels, anon. There's a whole world of material you probably haven't encountered yet, even if you've been through Howard's own books.
