Tfw writing the greatest work of the century and constantly worried I might die before its publication

>tfw writing the greatest work of the century and constantly worried I might die before its publication

why not kill yourself and replace that worry with a feeling of certainty

That's an oddly life-affirming post.

woah...

...

op if you actually do this, you would be such a madman hahahaha

Being published with great commercial/critical success isn't even a guarantee that you won't be irrelevant 40 years from now. Nobody ever knows for sure how important their work will be.

Holy... I want more

Some people are great and know it. Keats, for one.

It's weird how many people come in here to feel feels about writing the work of the century... like three or four times a week. And yet nobody ever links anything.

Not possible since that's what I'm currently procrastinating on right now. So go ahead and die. It'll be better than living with the shame of being usurped before you've even finished.

Don't you understand, Veeky Forums IS the greatest work of literature of the century.

If you put your fiction up on Veeky Forums it repels agents and publishers. Anyone serious about getting their work published would never put it here.

i can't imagine anything more lit than dying and leaving the greatest work of the century unfinished

You're in danger of pulling a Gregory Berrycone.

No one who has ever been on Veeky Forums will ever EVER create anything of any artistic value whatsoever

Why would you need a publisher if you're writing something so good, though? Especially since, as a new author, you're going to be receiving so little money from your work.

Posting on a mongolian basket weaving forum doesn't erode your artistic talent, presuming you had one to begin with.

Christ, the redditors have arrived. Fuck off, retard.

Last*

Too late, I already have

last greatest work of literature?
