There's skill in that thar keyboard, that's to be sure, but but where I'm feeling cheated is that now I wonder ... are we hearing you, or hearing a persona carefully crafted for the audience? Are these things which have happened to you, or are they crafted out of whole cloth? One of the things about The Cellar is that most of us here post as ourselves. We write about our experiences, our joys, our sadnesses, sharing ourselves with intimate strangers.
A fiction flag would be helpful.

Well, what I post is non-fiction unless it is obvious silly shit. I really don’t see a need for a label.
Do I decorate the truth? Certainly I do. Sometimes, check that, most of the time life is plain and ordinary. The truth needs help at times to sustain interest in this type of medium. I could write and post brutally honest non-fiction about my bowel movements complete with time color size consistency and shape if you would prefer, I have extra time.
