Anyone know a literary agent I can contact?
Asking because cold-querying is now a losing game. I suspect this is true even if you have a fire novel (which I'm pretty sure @psychofauna is).
The flood of AI generated slop is messing with every creative industry. In this one, agents' inboxes are inundated with LLM-written proposals for LLM-written novels. Literary scholar Laura B. McGrath found that with one agency, cold emails lead to a 0.04% chance of representation. 😮
So I doubt I'll be able to find representation the normal way!

Heidegger advises his students that they should study Aristotle for 10-15 years before reading Nietzche

@UberKierk My classics professor made us read his work on Parmenides. It was fascinating because the very eccentric French professor also said he wasn’t mature enough to read Nietzsche yet. He was at least 60.

I've tried this like four times, I don't know how to explain "open source intelligence agency" to stripe. They keep saying it sounds like a "multi level marketing scheme" and that it's "not legal"

a very common, and helpful, meditation instruction is to completely release all the tension from your body you can. this is great but some haptic contraction can still be left over. one way you can release more contraction is by imagining phenomena themselves unclenching, like you would your body. imagine the quale, say a sound, lose its hardness and releasing its fist into a relaxed open palm. in doing so, the haptic contraction felt cognitively and physically has a chance to be released through externalizing the internal tension.
