    More pertinent advice would be "Find out what it is that you don't write about well... and then don't write about that thing." Specifying rape in this sentiment is gratuitous; nobody HAS to write a book about ANYTHING, so the option of not writing about rape is always there, so the logical conclusion of this injunction may as well be "NEVER write about rape." I see no reason why any subject matter, however grim, should be precluded as a literary theme. Any thoughts?

    He never got over not living out his hero and romantic fantasies during high school, and failed to realize afterward that that's all they could of been. He knows that he peaked in high school, and also knows that his peak wasn't very high. And since that was the peak of his existence, he refuses to mature beyond that point. He is stuck in the mindset of a sophomore in high school, and he is allowed to maintain that mentality through the existence of the internet and the people on it. He lives out his high school romantic fantasies by doing what he does rating, looking at, and talking with his fans. They are mostly teenagers who are just like him: social outcasts at school, who live vicariously through his success online, and dedicate themselves to him because they see themselves in him. Edit: Now that I reread this, it sounds REALLY pretentious, but I spent like 5 minutes on the comment, so I'm leaving it here.

    I feel like a book called “Stones to Abigail” could be a mystery novel about the protagonist being close with a girl named Abigail, and then she suddenly goes missing. The protagonist then receives some weird notes attached to rocks, and the notes give the protagonist hints on where Abigail is and how to find her(aka Stones leading to Abigail).

    In my head I just came up with a possible mini arc for this hypothetical rewrite: James goes to Abbi’s father when the notes reveal to him about his abusive nature, and his wife who apparently abandoned him and his daughter. James decides to interrogate her father, who is still like this hateful drunkard, but we soon learn that Abbi’s mom never left. She was an alcoholic like her father, only she had unfortunately died thanks to her addiction. He did his best to have the funeral pass under the noses of anyone else involved in her life, and twisted a lie that she ran way, because he was aware they were addicts, and didn’t want the last memory her friends and family to have be that she was an alcoholic. And it has a sorta chilling line like, “Ya see James, Abbi couldn’t have left to find her mom...because she really didn’t go that far,” implying she’s buried in the local cemetery

    when i heard about this title it first reminds me of a rock grave Abigail is already dead but her death is violent and mysterious ( probaly cause by a serial killer that on the loose and the police fail to catch). MC is someone close to Abigail and try to solve her death and revenge the killers. Each piece he able to solve is like a stone set to build her grave and let her soul and himself really rest in piece.

Like, typical and definitely not actually threatening high schooler talk. So I got in trouble because the comment was on a website I helped run that was critical of the school administration and I potentially knew who posted it (I did in fact know, but the administration wasn’t aware that I knew). Really, I’m pretty sure it was just an excuse to shut down dissent because the website made the admin’s shady actions publicly available

    There’s nothing wrong with having an protagonist with a superiority complex and more than a chip on his shoulder. Flawed characters are interesting characters. However, if their flaws aren’t treated as such or they down change then you have a shitty self insert at best. All of Gregs protagonists are like if Peter Parker was bitten by the spider but never lost uncle ben and never learned that important lesson of responsibility, just abusing his power to take what he wants.

I'd refuse to see her-the mark of a good counselor, of course. Pretty much everybody assigned to her felt the same way. It's baffling how these people get these jobs. While your experience is far, _far_ worse than anything I went through, it's depressingly unsurprising to me.

    44:48 I performed music for the FLOTUS when she made a campaign appearance at my university back in 2016. Secret Service was there 48 hours in advance and locked down the sports arena. We couldn't bring our instruments with us on the same day but instead had to check them in and leave them with the Secret Service 24 hours before the event started. The ONLY things students (including us) were allowed to bring to the event were our wallets and our cellphones (both of which were checked again upon entry). And of course, there was the general rule of thumb that for every Secret Service Agent and canine we could see, there were three that we couldn't.

    I flew through the nondescript halls on my Heelys through a sticky sea of blood. There was no time to put on my knee and elbow pads as Abbi's life was maybe, possibly on the line. I arrived at the cafeteria to see carnage. There were body parts everywhere and I could hear the sounds of the crazed monkeys that escaped from the Zoo getting ever closer; there was no time to waste. So I wasted time, and decided to watch my teacher almost get shot, the raging, sociopathic, hate-boner growing in my Jeggings. Mrs. Stanley screamed at him again, "You are an embarrassment! A disgrace! How dare you, you scum!?" Upon hearing her verbal condemnation without hesitation, I watched her increased perspiration and agitation turn to desperation, as she saw his perturbation; she couldn't see the differentiation of her irrationalization within this provocation that would lead to her life's discontinuation, or at least result in hospitalization. I stood by to watch this altercation on a distant table, the elevation giving a better acclimatization for the coming domination that filled me with jubilation. Seth whipped his MP5-N toward her like a sword being unsheathed, time again felt like it had drastically slowed as his weakened arm struggled to steady his aim. Anyway, Jason at this point runs in and beats Seth into a coma and stares intimidatingly at the aforementioned, unrelated monkeys and they decide to leave calmly, giving a polite, synchronized bow before exiting. All in all, I can definitely say that it was a pretty eventful Tuesday.

    "[T]he speed at which she attaches [etc...] suggest prior sexual abuse"-- good for you for knowing that BPD etc. are trauma disorders. It's amazing how few people see any connection between early trauma and lasting behaviors / personality traits / etc.

    Yes and victims are often shamed (you "wh0re") or left alone and the cycle of abuse goes on. It is easy for a group to mock vulnerable people- especially when they are isolated and don't speak up due to severe trauma, guilt and shame.

    Partly blame the people that lie about having those sorts of disorders, or at least use those disorders as sympathy romps and for exploiting other people. It really is a vicious cycle because both sides suffer because of people like them. The latter lose their empathy (and likely other things like cash) to con artists who prey upon them, and the people who actually have disorders and aren't entitled end up being pushed away because of it. Then we try to spread awareness, but we can't get enough of it right and hurt the cause. And then when we finally gain back empathy for those sorts of people, the con artists come right back to start the death spiral all over again, but worse each and every time. The only way this bullshit will end is it people like Onision are put in their proper place and aren't allowed to keep milking the public while driving the people they're impersonating to suicidal depression or homicidal rage.

    You can't have a "guns make school into a living hell" scenario *and* a "badass saves the school" scenario. If the main character can take out the shooter without *also* having a gun... then that suggests that anyone can take out a shooter without a gun (and just didn't because they weren't the main character). No: to drive home that guns should be controlled, you have to present them as *overwhelmingly unfair.* That, no matter how much of a badass a person is, they lose to *anyone* with a gun. Present an extremely fit sports star, with training in multiple forms of martial arts, and yet they're reduced to the status of "everyone else" when faced with a machine designed to inflict lethal damage at long range.

    After watching a recent video on greg's written web rants about his highschool years it made me realize that he's more unhinged than some would've thought. He got rejected one time for a creepy letter he sent to Abby and instead of moving on, he decided to make up a fanfic where they got together, and as a form of revenge, he made Seth, an abusive douche. No wonder one review mentioned a "continuity error on someone's vocabulary", yikes

    he refers to people as "humans" or "creatures" to detach himself from everyone else and to seem "woke" by looking at everything from a broad "philosophical" (if that makes sense) perspective instead of a focused social or cultural one. he wants to relate everything he observes back to the way he thinks the world works and the way the FoOLiSH people around him act. it makes him seem DiFFeReNT.

    I don’t know why Onision calls others humans, though I imagine he’s looking down on them, but I can personally say why I call people humans in my head or to other people. It’s because I’m on the spectrum and as such I feel so out of place with those around me. I don’t understand neurotypical people and categorise them as something that’s not me. The people I *do* understand are people, those I don’t are humans. It’s hard to define but basically… I don’t see myself as similar enough socially to consider myself “human”, at least from a social standpoint. Now don’t get me wrong, I’m nothing like those otherkin folk, but I recognise myself as exceptionally abnormal. And there are times when it *is* a derogatory term, but only insofar as that I’m frustrated that *I* don’t get why other people do the things they do. It’s a jab at me in an indirect way. Anyway, I just felt the need to defend my strange way of talking, despite knowing my reason for saying humans has nothing to do with why James/Greg/Onision says humans.

Its so disrespectful to view a person only as an object - something to be fixed or saved, especially when this person is still a child and the world is still very confusing. Being mentaly ill teen isnt pretty or mysterious or emo... Its fucking tiring, neverending nightmare and it would be great if authors could recognise it for what it is and participate in destigmatizing mental ilnesses.

    My mother temporarily worked as an editor, and she got a couple such books. One such book was about a guy, sitting in his bathtub, contemplating dropping his hair dryer in, while reminiscing about his life. The book apparently describes, in excruciating and anatomically incorrect detail, how he shits in the bathwater. Another such book was written by a man who she claims to know for a fact has literally only read one book in his life, called "Robbi und Robba", a book that I couldn't read far in, despite being a children's book. In any case, he tried to write a children's book of his own, with predictable results. Run-on-sentences and words that a) are far too advanced for children b) probably haven't been used in a couple of centuries plagued the book. Those books now seem leagues better.

    Honestly the first one CAN be a good concept of well executed. If you go as far of a subject as to contemplate suicide and being so hurt that there's no way out, might as well go full on reader disgust and throw the ugly parts of suicidal thoughts out there (yes, every part of suicidal thoughts are bad; but some people romanticize the sleepless nights and social awkwardness, not thinking about the lack of hygiene or self care, for example). If this was overall well written, it'd be a disturbing reading experience that would stick with you. This guy is so hurt and broken that he can't manage to get up from the bathtub. He just figures "well, I'm gonna die right nkw and no one will see me. Maybe I deserve this filth and this hurt. I deserve to suffer more and die alone, forgotten and surrounded in my own filth". This is something that can be well done. It scars in the readers mind. They can have some sense of understanding what the final, depressed thoughts of a dying or suicidal persons thoughts are. They may have never thought or considered taking their lives, but this superlative level of self abuse is a good introduction to how altered a suicidal person's thought process is. Thay being said, if it's bad written, it's just a guy bathing in shit and i'm not about that lmao
