Maybe you should give him the address to your Eragon sporking website and advise him to just have a read. Not to be mean, but to help him realise his flaws and hopefully become a better writer for his sake. Though you have been a bit mean in some of those sporkings. And chances are he won't "waste his time" with reading them (it is quite a long read) and will disregard any criticism and continue to think he's so great a gift to the world of fiction. It's one thing to think you're a good writer when you're not but it seems like he thinks he's like the best there is. Yeah he's probably a pretty nice person but I just feel this air of smugness to him or something when I see him in videos. Of course this is all my perception of him. I have no idea what goes on in his head and I probably shouldnt judge.
