Lol... yes, plenty of plagiarists on steemit haha.
Yeah, some of the old stuff is tiresome to read. They got away with writing long, drawn-out sections on scenery, making it a bit slow for me. Shakespeare: oh, he's awesome but difficult to read. I remember the torture of this at school. His stuff was written for performance and I think that's how he's best enjoyed. Reading him is just painful for me :D
Sci-fi. I hear ya. I love the stuff, and speculative fiction. Maybe there'll be some early examples around in Guttenberg. Have you read any Philip K Dick or Margaret Atwood? They're great in their respective genres.
cheers
