All writing is a work of faction. I have said it and I stand by it. A letter from a fellow blogger, Flabbergasted, questioned if my work was autobiographical? The answer is Yes and No. Firstly it is not work, not by 'work's' current definition, it only writing. In my opinion, fiction provides a certain flavor to a fact that would otherwise appear 'fantastic'. Imagination, like the Pandora, unleashes ways in which you can re-write a fact without cold-cutting it.
Zum Beispiel - When you meet that perfect man/ woman, you seek to find that one blind spot where he/she will fall. That one glitch in the making will assure you that he/she is human and therefore worthy of love; till then your suspicion will run rampant. That glitch is imagination, which holds life through all suspicions.
