[Not mindless power fantasy, not a wish-fulfillment story, no being reborn, no System. The setting draws on Norse mythology, and most locations are fictional, though some are real.]
In high school, I read a book that had a huge impact on me. It showed me what the pinnacle of writing could be. To this day, I haven't read another book as good as it. It gave me my understanding of loneliness, helplessness, and youth. I know my writing is leagues behind, but I still want to try writing a book of my own.
