I found it interesting that Terence thinks that everything has already been said. I guarantee he has not said some stuff that I have said. #realityhunger

I am confused as to what the numbers above each paragraph mean. #realityhunger

Honestly to some extent I am confused by this. This could mean when people tell fiction stores the main theme of the story is true. For example a fiction story shows a bad king meaning kings are bad in real life. Not entirely sure though. #realityhunger

I feel like the raw artistic movement is still happening, the more I look around the more barebones and raw art is. I guess its becuase its modern. Especially art tailored towards consumers, like app logos and food packaging. Its very barebones and raw #realityhunger

This in my opinion goes with the idea of the fact shrinking. People no longer know what is real and fake. Therefore causing people to spread false information they think is real. This is a never ending cycle everyone has took part in at least once. #realityhunger

So many allusions in this book. I have no clue who these people are. #realityhunger

"The life Span of a fact is shrinking". Back in the day facts were all people had and they held much less information. Today though everyone has so much information and we constantly are given real and fake new information that facts value dwindle. Kinda scary #realityhunger

#realityhunger as of right now, my truck hitting me song would be "i wanna be adored" by the stone roses, because i think even in death i'd wish for the comfort of adoration

The idea that fiction infected history is interesting to really think about. It is certainly true, as many historical events are exaggerated to sound cooler or more fascinating than they actually were. However, I think this originated far before when it is written here. #realityhunger

I really like this quote about artists just tryin to interpret their reality into art. It makes ou wonder how all these famous crazy artists thought about life. Like how was van gohs starry night a representation of his reality? #realityhunger

#realityhunger i dont know if it's just me but some of this comes off a bit pretentious

The novel today is perhaps the most popular book type for many adult readers so to learn it originated to amuse upper class ladies and provide them a sense of importance is pretty strange. It gave them importance when they could not find it from others. #realityhunger

Another book with a really cool front page. #realityhunger

Reading part B was very fascinating. To see the timeline of storytelling history was both interesting and cool to see how it evolved throughout time. #realityhunger

#realityhunger reminded me of the debate of if a tree falls in a forest and no one is around to hear it, does it make a sound

This made me think about the commonly used quote today that is we never have original thoughts. Everything we can think has already been thought before. To hear someone be saying this in the second century has made me realize its likely true. #realityhunger

#realityhunger i kind of disagree with his feelings about fiction, some of the fandoms i've always been heavily involved in are SOOO fictitious (harry potter, fullmetal alchemist, etc) but i've always felt like i can escape into them better than something like, f1 for example.

In part b it circled back to how authors pilfer from others and call it tradition. I again relate to this because others inspire things I might write and many famous authors have said they got inspiration from another story. This perfectly normal in my opinion and works well. #realityhunger

I relate heavily to the first paragraph as I have experienced this while doing some writing for a story. I attempt to try and convey a message about how I perceive things or just something happening in my life into the story. #realityhunger

#realityhunger whole shift in tone took me EXTREMELY off guard compared to the history lessons i was reading about in b. but it works because he's doing exactly what he's saying, being honest, no bs.
