Fiction writers
Tell lies for a living
And it means they never
Have to apologize
Politicians do too
But they have to pretend
That their lies were
True when they told them

But fiction writers are *always* more interesting ;)
o my gosh I'm a little embarrassed some of the posts on this blog have gotten a little raunchy of late I guess if there's going to be a reading public I should seek to edify rather than simply give vent to my tragic curmudgeon voice from within
you're right about novelists though
it is the craft of the elegant lie
rather than a lie for some assumed power grab
or financial good
the elegant lie
always the better choice
welcome to de gustibus
which is short for de gustibus non disputandem est
which means
in matters of taste there is no disputing
anon
jh

Thank you for the welcome. This won't help your embarrassment any, but I've been reading for quite some time. I do enjoy the blog.
However, as far as writers go, it's not so much the lies, but the truths told with grace and understanding. At least that's what I've been thinking lately.
