This is one of the reasons I never want to write non-fiction–so my writing doesn’t come under this kind of critical scrutiny.
It seems that many people are willing to embellish their life stories, or even make them up entirely, in order to get published. James Frey, Harvard graduates, and others seem desperate to get false stories published about their lives.
See what other literary hoaxes have played out, from legendy figures such as Shakespeare to Davy Crockett himself.
Then wonder why they are willing to write these stories. Is it to make their lives more exciting? To draw attention to themselves? Because they think they can get away with it?
Would you ever try to turn one of your stories into a true account of what you’ve experienced?
I see that smile.
that was the tee i was gonna get!
