In journalism just one FACT that is false PREJUDICES the entire WORK. In contrast, in FICTION one single fact that is TRUE gives legitimacy to the entire work. That's the only difference, and it lies in the commitment of the writer. A novelist can do anything he wants so long as he makes people believe in it.

Hiding, secrets, and not being able to be yourself is one of the worst THINGS ever for a person. It GIVES you low self-esteem. You NEVER GET to reach that peak in your life. You should ALWAYS be able to be yourself and be proud of yourself.

If LIFE GIVES you LIMES, MAKE margaritas.

Digital communication is completely DIFFERENT from in-person, face-to-face conversations. One will GIVE you SURFACE insights, and the other really GIVES you depth.
