I'm fascinated that there were hints of reality in past Katy stories, and like Bill said, this was very Katyish (I preferred her style of writing over Nas, mind you, though Nas did have a fun whimsy about her). <br /><br />Now then, please don't pull a Katy and just leave us hanging here, yeah?

I know you liked Nasreen better. <br /><br />I like Nasreen's writing, but her way of second-guessing every statement she says makes covering much ground in a story tough.

My old blogs included a lot of true stories despite the fictional narrators. <br /><br />Some of them, like the one where Adri kidnapped a radio DJ who referred to Peter Gabriel as Brit-Pop and made her listen to "Lamb Lies Down on Broadway" in its entirety, though... that one was complete fiction.
