I was checking r/writing and every single thread is about how magic can impact the worldbuilding of orcs or something similar. Not a single thread asking for advice on how to write a couple in love.

It's never a single book, it has to be a trilogy. No one is interested in prose or poetry, so it really feels like a bunch of people there have autism and instead of obsessing about trains or whatever they just want to write the next LOTR/GOT/Wheel of Time.

The fantasy genre also has to be set in medieval times. Archery, wine, music, all those are available, but never a bullet. Why not change the timeline?

It's millions of twenty-three and thirty-two year olds who have read three Brandon Sanderson books and each come to the realisation that "I could write this myself"

that's surprising cause romance is a big seller and you'd figure redditors are reading it. maybe there's a narrower board there targeting that type of lit tho
