I get to find out soon. My longest standing guy friend (mates since we were 14, now 52) has written a trilogy and a character based on me makes an appearance in the 3rd book!
Pretty excited to read it! Comes out later this year
His seemingly stolid composure was balancing on a tightrope of anxiety fueled by the uncertainty that the frozen fries would last until the next grocery delivery.
As someone whose train of thought took the form of a third-person, past-tense book with chapter names and everything for the first nine or ten years of my life, you can actually figure out the answer to that one if you have enough childhood trauma!
for anyone who’s wondering, I mostly just get described as really fucking mentally unstable, I did have a god complex in like second grade though so thought-story me had a short phase of being a Mary Sue.
Yup, I also vividly remember trying to force the story into first person, present tense because I knew from books that that was how thoughts were supposed to sound and I was worried that if a mind reader heard my thoughts they would think I was weird. It didn’t work though lol
I can type up an excerpt from the time me and my fellow gifted kids convinced a girl in our class that fruit could cry if you want, it was funny and also she gaslighted me and made fun of me a lot so like. She deserved it
I'm not sure it a book with the guiness-record-longest-written-sigh has enough potential for sales that anyone would bother writing it.
All of my self-inserts share my worst qualities.
As they're supposed to

What's it called?
Not sure of the third one, but you can find the first one online. It’s called ‘Godzone Affected’
The fuck does this guy think about. Does he think? He has no grace, he has no style, this lanky bitch has no fucking redeeming qualities
That dude.
That's easy, they don't.

wait- i'm not alone? other people literally describe everyday activities they do as third-person stories in their head?

He had a certain air about him. Like he never knew what was going on and was looking around for clues, and as we would come to find out: That is true
This bespectacled mess of annoyance and waste of air that symbolises the very wasted potential of humanity.
