You do know that authors spend years writing a book, right?

thats unacceptable
I want my first novel published in less than a year

If you want to write a novel, you have to force it. Don’t worry about getting the language perfect the first time round. You can draft it for eternity once you’ve actually got something finished to work with.
(though you sound like a bit of a bitter wanker in that retort)
>>7710943
I hope this is bait. Either way, you're being a massive shitstain, just stop talking.

i got you senpai. my secret technique is to just madlibs other people's shit. it's a lot easier than writing from nothing.
with enough practice it will be less plagerism and more like using an efficient template to further your creative genius

That’s what I’m saying, you need to find it in you to leave the sentences that you hate and keep going with the work as a whole.
And if someone’s being an ass you’re better to ignore them and move on. You’ll be happier for it.

good idea. im gonna try it
how is this senpai?
>Early one morning, during an exceptional morning in the beginning of spring, an old man walked out into the street from the cottage he rented on Marina Grove. Slowly, as though he could not make up his mind, he began to move in the direction of the old lighthouse.
Can I get published like this?

You... Want to write your novel because you have more intellect than the average idiot? I'm not seeing the connection. (I'm tempted to ask why you should even bother publishing it since it'll just be served to the average idiots who will never comprehend your raw intellect and sheer brilliance.)

>Complaining on a Polish potato processing plant pictureboard.

this desu senpai
shit isn't easy, get the fuck over it. There's a reason you go back and edit your work. My published pieces I have always done at least 6 drafts.

You're the man now, dog.
