Thanks so much for writing this series! I only just found it and had to finish it. Rationalist fiction is so addictive.
This summary has inspired me to give light novels a go after having failed at NaNoWriMo a couple of times, and the one time I did finish the end result was .. not good. I have also bought Impro, but will do my best not to get stuck in Anxious Underconfidence and Status Regulation. I finished Inadequate Equilibria a few days ago and also found it to be eye-opening.
Thanks for all of your posts—many of the most interesting sounding ones on LW2.0 that I pick out from my RSS reader are yours.
Yea, I only recently found the fiction subreddit r/rational on reddit and my week is probably gone.
I find it kind of shocking that the standard progression for fiction writers is something like: keep writing full-length novels until you git gud. Light novels seem to be a good transition stage for training (at least). It’s still an open question for me whether light novels are better full stop.
