Editor's Disclaimer

To be very honest — nobody actually said this. AI wrote it in the style of the archive to keep this page from feeling empty while we chase down real quotes. Enjoy the fiction responsibly.

“If I'm being honest, half the books we publish as 'groundbreaking literary fiction' are just MFA thesis projects with three sex scenes added and the protagonist's job changed from 'adjunct professor' to 'artisanal beekeeper.' The reviews write themselves because the reviewers all went to the same workshops.”

Editor's note: Cynical but accurate takedown of insular literary publishing ecosystem and formulaic trends
