このコンテンツについて
In Part 1 of this two-part episode, I dissect the modern obsession with writing fiction built entirely out of tropes: plots, characters, and emotional beats engineered from formula instead of imagination. This is a precise, dryly mocking, philosophical critique of how commercial fiction became predictable, repetitive, and creatively lifeless.
I explore the rise of trope-driven storytelling, the cultural and educational forces that encourage it, the cowardice of writers who rely on formula instead of introspection, and the publishing industry’s addiction to “safe” derivative books. Part 1 is the diagnosis, or, rather, the surface-level disease.
Part 2 goes deeper into the psychology, mythology, and spiritual origins of storytelling.
As always, sit back, relax, and enjoy.
