A Question for the FAQ Page Perhaps
From a reader who also happens to be related to me, comes this question (edited for grammar and context):
I have been reading Love, Daddy and I understand some of the stories aren't true but to make it more interesting you have to add some ficition to attract people to read it. Right??
WRONG! 1,000% wrong. Have you heard of James Frey? I'm not a writer by trade like Mr. Frey. So while he is able to write about things that may or may not have ever happened, I do not possess the talent to do so. All the stories I recount here are true from my personal perspective and experience. Why would fiction need to be added anyway when the truth is so wonderfully rich?

Amen, Kambri. Life just is, and it would be wrong to embellish on it when it is already so deep. Keep it up, love your narratives!
