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.

“Honestly speaking, the literary world's obsession with 'authenticity' means my students with actual war trauma get published while my brilliant suburban kids writing about dragon economies get 47 rejection letters. Suffering has become our most marketable genre.”
