A few minutes ago I finally realized that the epic I'm working on contains all (main (at least)) types of conflicts.
Man v. man
Man v. self
Man v. fat
Man v. society
Man v. nature
Man v. supernatural
Man v. technology
Well - ok. |

That sounds like a cluttered mess that wouldn't be enjoyable to read in the slightest.
(And Man V fat..? What? Did you mean "Man V Fate?") |

That's what I thought at first but it's apparent that it's actually pretty organized. I somehow managed to mesh it into one beautiful thing unintentionally. |

(It's also apparent that the way I'm wording things is bad due to the fact that I'm using most of my brain cells trying to finish my review and look over it.) |

Well aren't you humble? |

Erm. I was just stating that I hadn't even realized that they were different types of conflicts and I just didn't even think about it. Yes, I did subconciously merge them together. Is it a bad thing that I'm telling the truth? I was not trying to be proud. I don't even like talking about pride because it ends up in a sort of loop. |

Right now your self praise means nothing. Perhaps you could post a snippet of the story so we can judge this for ourselves? |

Right now I don't really have much of the actual story written but I do have some random (for lack of a better term) excerpts here and there - for now it's just in my head and I'll just tell it to people if they care to listen and ask for their feedback. Also, as a genuine question (I'm not trying to accuse you of anything) - how can I know that your feedback would be honest? (Again, not trying to be offensive) |

"Man v. man

I'm trying to figure out how you fit so many complex themes into one piece.
What is he fighting a giant druidic ghost cyborg fortune teller doppelganger that also judges you if you wear polyester?
I'd like to read it, but my advice? Stick to one or two main themes. |
