You'd think after 15 years of writing it would be done. It feels like ive made more progress in my head than i have on paper. The story never extends pass that dark, quiet street. Its not about what i created, its about what i could never finish.

Alice Reimagined
She fell Like a flower, through the world that beheld her. Into a dream, that danced on the tops of Baobab trees; Where rain fell as teardrops, from the Great Sahel. Truth exchanged between stolen glances, and sun baked smiles. Red earth between toes for miles and miles...
 She left with bliss or her lips, That turned to ash on a cool summer night. Â

This word is scribbled on a post-it on my writing desk and Iâve been working around it. Disconnect from reality, from ourselves, from our truth. From our past. From our insecurities and from our biases too. Iâm thinking about what that truth means and Iâm thinking about those who uphold this truth, for or against us. At the moment, disconnecting from the discourse is helping me cope with it better. Itâs giving me the time to process what Iâm seeing and decide which side of history I want to be on and the most effective ways to add my voice to the cause. ⢠We are living in a time that calls for social activism and engagement. Weâre required to connect and empower our truth. But hereâs a reminder to disconnect if you need to. Your mental wellbeing is important. Now more than ever, we need to take care of ourselves. We need to stay strong for the fight ahead. Have a cup of tea, unplug for a bit, read a book, call that old friend you havenât spoken to in a while, cuddle. You got this. â˘
Ways to turn a non-fiction to a fiction!
From Reality to Imagination: How Non-Fiction Fuels Fictional Worlds
Stories have always been a bridge between reality and imagination, but some of the most compelling fictional works are rooted in non-fiction. From historical epics to science-inspired adventures, the real world offers a treasure trove of ideas waiting to be reimagined. But how does this transformation happen, and why is it so fascinating?
The Power of Real-Life Inspiration
Real events, people, and phenomena have a unique weightâthey carry the truth. When woven into fiction, they add authenticity, grounding the story even in the most fantastical settings. This mix of fact and fiction creates narratives that feel both relatable and extraordinary.
Think of bestselling novels or blockbuster films: many started as whispers of truth. A scandal, a scientific breakthrough, or even a fleeting human experience can ignite an entire fictional universe.
Why Non-Fiction Makes Fiction Stronger
Authenticity: Fiction based on real-life details resonates with readers because it feels plausible.
Emotion: True events often carry raw emotions that can deeply affect audiences.
Endless Possibilities: Reality provides a solid starting point, but fiction gives you the freedom to ask, âWhat if?â
Fiction Inspired by Non-Fiction: Examples in Action
Historical Fiction: Stories like The Book Thief by Markus Zusak take historical moments and explore them through fictional characters, offering a fresh lens on familiar events.
Science Meets Imagination: Michael Crichtonâs Jurassic Park used real genetic research as the foundation for a thrilling dinosaur resurrection tale.
Memoirs with a Twist: Novels like The Kite Runner by Khaled Hosseini are deeply influenced by personal and cultural histories, blurring the lines between reality and imagination.
When Fiction Enhances Truth
Sometimes, fiction allows us to delve deeper into truths that non-fiction alone canât explore. By creating fictional characters or settings, authors can address sensitive topics, build empathy, and present perspectives that might otherwise remain untold.
For example, dystopian novels like 1984 by George Orwell use fictionalized societies to critique real-world politics and culture.
The Magic of Transformation
Turning non-fiction into fiction is an artâa delicate balance of preserving the essence of truth while letting creativity run wild. Itâs in this transformation that some of the most profound and entertaining stories are born.
So, next time youâre inspired by a documentary, a historical figure, or even a news headline, remember: reality is just the first draft of a great story.

Fifteen years later and im still on that dark road This Entity in front of me, an amalgamation of all my Sins; past, present, and future.
It all started with a nightmare...
This infection of my mind.
Fifteen years later...
"Thy Storm Cometh..."
New from @angeliamenchan!!! #JustLOVE #TruthinFiction - - Two months before her fiftieth birthday, Ameena Mitchell sat in her car, tears racing down her face. It was December and the past eight months had drained her. The culmination was burying the man she loved, two weeks earlier. Menton was the love of her life, the man she married weeks after she graduated college. - - He was twenty eight to her twenty one at the time and seemed to love her thoroughly. They accomplished great things in almost twenty nine years. She realized her dream of a PhD in spiritual counseling and he after being a high school principal got his dream job as a local college president. It was a job he loved and was where he was found slumped over his desk, at fifty seven, dead of a massive heart attack. - - She recalled their last conversation. âBaby, youâve got to take better care of you. You spent all this year running interference, trying to heal my family and your patients and you broke yourself.â Menton said, staring down into her face, his eyes filled with love. His words resonated because it was true. - - She felt broken and wasnât sure how to put herself back together. âPromise me that no matter what happens youâll focus on you.â She smiled at him and promised to start at fifty. They had gotten a chuckle out of that before he kissed her and headed to work. The next time she saw him, he was lying on a table, cold to her touch. - - Drying her face, Ameena got out of her car and made her way inside wondering if it would be better or different if she had become a mother. She and Menton tried but gave up after fourteen years when Ameena turned thirty five. By then they were both successful and living out their dreams. Now it all felt like dreams deferred. - - https://www.amazon.com/YEAR-THAT-CHANGED-HER-Fiction-ebook/dp/B082WKSW5F/ref=sr_1_1?keywords=Menchan&qid=1579906147&sr=8-1 https://www.instagram.com/p/B7uIMP0D_L4/?igshid=190bmpt7jt3vf
Tip #172: GET THE FACTS RIGHT. We know that truth matters in documentaries, news shows, instructional videos, and other nonfiction genres. But telling the truth can also play a crucial role in storytelling. Even in a fanciful horror picture or action-filled thriller, you donât want your audience to view a bit of action and think, âThat canât possibly happen.â Take the image here from âThe Movie Star,â a very clever comedy directed by Blake Calhoun (@watchifilmmakers). The wide-eyed look of the recently deceased protagonist is totally consistent with biological science. Because muscles relax following death, the eyes usually remain open and the pupils will dilate (grow larger). The director offers more insights into this scene and the rest of the movie in an interview published at MobileMovieMaking, where âThe Movie Starâ is featured as a Mobile Movie of the Week. #mobilemoviemakingtips #iphonemovies #smartphonemoviemaking #truthinfiction #death #filmacting https://www.instagram.com/p/B4Vz9VAgX8u/?igshid=98wqy7yptazh
