>"I couldn't have done it without a Freewrite!" says authoress of World's Greatest Novel
Sounds about right.
>not touching the home keys
it's people like this that touch screens were invented for and yet they buy typewriters. i blame that movie secretary.
>>7818581
hipster shit.
HIPSTER FAGGOT SHIT FUCK THAT INVENTOR WITH THE GAY BEARD HE'S ALL SMILEY LIKE HE'S MR. INVENTION
>authoress
yep, sounds about right
>>7818635
yeah but can you imagine if it didn't click loud? then who would know that you're writing?
$499 for this piece of shit. Jesus Christ.
If you crave shit like this you probably also:
-buy physical books (muh smellz, muh eye //strain// etc.)
-download and hord internet porn, i.e. fill up harddrives with videos of people fucking.
If any of these things apply you should neck yourself tbvqh smgdh rmgde

MODS STICKY THIS

what is "rmgede"
>>7818815
How out of touch are you if you think that the alternative to tree shit is the amazon or w/e ecosystem??
It's reading shit on your phone/tablet/computer in epub /mobi/pdf w/e
Drown yourself if you just thought "but muh eyez" pls!

>bitch is mad I haven't scanned all my physical copies
keep raging bby, it's why I add a six month delay to some of my first and only editions, just to fuck with bitches like you on lit when i mention it in an obscure books thread your hipster punkass thrives on. stay less read than me, that'll get me hard.
>>7818836
Mein Gott it's the obscurity spook.
what?
I don't get why someone would buy this or somthing similar to it. Don't you have a paper and a pencil? Is enough for written down the ideas that you had in the place you are situated. "I feel more inspired if I write my long novel in front of someone". Come on
>>7818844
>it's obscure if I've never heard of it and Penguin didn't make a translation
>amazon's not pumping out self published ebooks and it'd be totally better than the olympia press' back catalog if it was

maybe stop huffing your smelly books
not really clear what you're trying to communicate here

Are you still trying to shill this piece of shit here? Get a life, faggot.
>>7818867

You're the worst kind of poster and reader. Acting like reading is a competition? Who can be the coolest and read the most obscure shit? Your insecurities are glaring, Anon. Try shutting the fuck up and stop gloating to try to impress strangers on an Indonesian fishing enthusiast forum.
>>7818893
>nigga's still upset someone reads more than him and not because they smell books
you make a fool statement which limits the amount of canon you can read, people should call you willfully ignorant because you _are_.
>>7818836
Ok, name some of these great books you own...
>>7818901
lmfao.
so now this bookhuffer is looking for some obscure shit to impress me...
>>7818899
>still
Try again, I'm not the same anon you were arguing with, just a concerned /lit/-izen.
But it has become clear that this thread is compromised and you're a delusional maniac who only talks about reading for status and recognition, so I'm going to hide and report this thread and pray for your soul.
>>7818901
>>7818908
>>7818916
wow are you so mad you posted three times in ten minutes. despite your claims of not samefag, y'all are either samefag or one of you's samefag and the other can't quotechain. to the nigga who want a list of books that aren't going to be reprinted, work your way back up to the olympia press comment. it's a shame a lot of that catalog hasn't been picked up though everyone who could get rights, besides based jp donlevy, did a reader's digest version of the best of the best.
go run and educate yourselves about that large hunk of 20th century publishing and royalties history and then come back and tell me how your kindle license makes everyone else just a bookhuffer when you're clearly inhaling your own farts as your total source for knowledge of literature.
>you're a delusional maniac
trop bon est trop con, ma cherie. you'd die of basic shame in most cosmopolitan areas because you'd realise this isn't arrogance:- it's basic competence to know these things
>>7818581
Oh this. It was on 'special' one-day-only sale before for $500 or so, I think.
>>7818932
>>7818932
It's perfectly obvious that most of *anything* printed in the 20th century is not available for download...
Your argument does still rest on obscurity...
Telling also that you chose to refer to a "kindle license" again, as if digital reading/publishing is in any way reducible to amazon.
I win.
Don't respond to this,
>>7818972
Of course my argument doesn't rest on obscurity, you absolute tard, I've been arguing that just because retards haven't heard of shit does not make that shit obscure. You're so mad you don't even know which side of the argument is which.
The prize is who has access to and understand of more books, and I think by that measure of winning there are even Stephen King fans in other threads which have beaten you in this argument just by the magnitude of your ignorance being too large for a thread about the worst invention ever, you back tracking little faggot.
This is easily the most retarded thread on /lit/ right now. I hope you faggots are proud of yourselves.
>>7818996
It was not obscure in the time it was published but it certainly is now, you "tard"?
I only superficially scanned the google results and I concluded your basically talking about erotic pulp shit? Do not correct me if I am wrong...
Judging by your last sentence sperg-out you are french?
>>7819008
're
>>7818992
yr not me fuck off
this is for the whole thread
>>7819008
>i haven't heard of it, it must be obscure, right, mom?
>the reading after 1950 meme is obscure to me so it doesn't exist, right, mom?
i'm not your mom, go ask her if you're still a special snowflake even if you don't like books. personally, i think you're a faggot.
>erotic pulp shit
>Miller, Burroughs, Beckett, Donleavy, Nabokov, Genet
kek, your pleb is showing, prude.
>French
did you expect to be right about anything when reality keeps trying to hit you in the face with your retarded nature?
*munches popcorn*
>>7818729
Wait, whats wrong with physicals?

he doesn't own any. it's like what's wrong with women.

Everything by the authors you named is downloadable...
My understanding is that there were two publishing "lines" in that publishing house or w/e
Erotic pulp shit refers to the line which does not include works of these popular authors...
The french thing was an innocent joke... pls stop calling me retarded
>>7819065
+ do I really have to give you a definition of "obscure"?
My mistake was actually thinking you to be more sophisticated than you actually turn out to be...
Just neck yourself. If you respond to this I win!
>>7819065
you called Olympia Press "erotic pulp shit" >>7819008. that's funny as shit considering they're the first publisher for those well known authors even you have heard of but you're retarded enough to assume you wouldn't be called out on that shit. how fucking dumb are you you did not see that coming? i'm calling you retarded because you need to know you are before you hurt yourself plugging in your kindle.
>>7819079
why would i take advice from a retard?
>World's first smart typewriter
>10 kg of keyword
>10 cm of eyekiller screen
Its not like personal pc already exist, retards.
>>7819096
*I clarified what I called 'erotic pulp shit'
>>7819096
KEKEKEKKEE are you saying that Anais Nin was lying when she called Miller and her group's work erotic pulp shit? so retarded you can't even backpedal straight. all those authors got published by Olympia precisely because they were writing erotica and avant-garde lit. it was the mandate of the press.
>>7819108
Straight tard bait. Should be obvious by that display of idiocy that I won this argument.
You could have just named one of the books that can't be found on the internet from that publisher.
Plus make it's author relevant by whatever tenuous relation he/she might have had.
It's possible, I just searched for some of the titles/authors...
So that's how stupid pretending to buy books does make one.
I have to do other things now.
>>7819145
>maybe if i just pretend the person who knows shit is retarded, nobody will notice i've been retarded in history, taste, and general
no, kiddy, it's not the way it works. you get to go feel inferior about not knowing shit about something you want to be so arrogant and judgmental over. well, that's if you don't want to continue this narcissistic spiral. i'm okay with info dumping about major movements of literature which prove you not just wrong but moronic forever.you can check the whole catalog against the reprinted catalog and the books that aren't reprinted have no reprints. it's literally that simple, retardoboy
>>7819176
you basically have no reading comprehension.
you just repeated what that guy said you should have done
>>7819176
lmfao
esl fedora pls go
>>7819176
No reprints does not mean that they were not scanned and can not be downloaded :^)
smellz included :^)
>>7819190
i told him to check it out, because if he's interested in finding out which books he can't get on the internet, it's basic legwork. if he really is too retarded to manage that and too ADD to read any of them, why would I bother checking my lists? he can show some initiative instead of just hoping nobody else reads. he's a pretentious fuck. not pretending to be interested and actually doing some reading is the solution to that, not me re-reading shit or spoonfeeding him. i told him to check it out, because spoonfeeding him that much allows anyone else with a genuine interest to find the info easily, along with further tips and info like "how to recongise an olympia edition from 20 yards away"
>>7819196
lolutkhim2dbar? as a first language please [s4s]
>>7819211
now if we apply the same principle to "have been uploaded to lib.gen/archive.org etc" what do you think you would find yourself with?the answer isn't reprints before you go full retardo again
>>7819218
you were meant to demonstrate the non-downloability of content and not the availability via publishing now or whenever.
if you had any awareness you would realise that you are publicly shamed by your own immense stupidity
*tips*
>>7819240
yeah i doubt it since i outright stated fedora tipping hipsters who are in it for the namedrops like you i use as an excuse for not sharing the love >>7818836 and ever since that your entire argument has been
>BUT MY MOM LETS ME WIN ALL THE TIME
you've brought less than shit to this conversation, little buddy, and everyone can see how you're sperging out info-free and full retarded. too late to selfdelete too, baby.
Message to the esl fuck itt:
It's obvious just namedropped that publisher and were in the mood for 4chan bs.
>you can check the whole catalog against the reprinted catalog and the books that aren't reprinted have no reprints. it's literally that simple, retardoboy
Could you please share some more wisdom, more knowledge about literature movements and publishing and booksand smellz
>>7819280
meh, make a publisher thread. you'll probably get a lot of NYRB, dalkey, daedalus, atlas fags, but don't trust the folio fags for english works because most of them aren't worth it. [these not-even-obscure name drops should keep you in good shit for years]

Not all books have an official electronic version and pirated e-books are full of inconsistencies. Poor scan quality, missing pages, fucked up formatting, etc. are all problems that occur when trying to go fully digital.
Also I like the idea of being able to read when the power goes out.
