Some thoughts Everything is fiction. I live my life according to my beliefs, and belief is fiction. I treat people according to how I see them, and my perception, more or less, is fiction. When I find something touted as truth, I will treat that as fiction. Time passing is fiction, because what has passed is only remembered, dimly. That memory is fiction. Even the way I think of fiction is fiction. Ergo, it is possible to live my whole life as a fictional being and, conversely, to write fiction that will stand in lieu of a life. I can always remind myself that even despair is fiction.
