Watchers

I've actually got a fairly decent backlog of Demon'verse to post, and I thought I was basically posting as soon as I'd written the latest bit...

Well, you'll just have to get a double update as a Christmas/New Year's present. And ignore the fact that it isn't exactly Christmassy. You should know me by now - I'm not the fluffiest writer...  

Also, starting the New Year as I mean to go on. Actual updates, editing and writing, oh my. (parties? what are they?)

Edit: are the new pieces (28 and 29) showing up normally? I'm using Stash for reasons of convenience but I'm worried they aren't coming into inboxes like they should. Let me know.

I think of myself as rather an honest person. That is not to say I do not lie. I will happily misdirect the truth, or agree with a complete fabrication of the truth for honest and dishonest reasons.

I will often smuggle large portions of heartfelt truth by introducing one obvious lie into their midst. The receiver recognises the lie, and thus believes that all of what I have told them is false. I find it useful when you cannot bear to keep the truth to yourself, nor can you bear the consequences of anyone finding out.

Another technique, and a useful one at that, it to tell the absolute and utter truth, with a completely straight face, and then laugh as the receiver begins to believe it. They will assume that the truths are false, and that you have been playing them for a fool. Perhaps ironically, in this situation, they only become the fool when they disbelieve your words.

Lie, you may have realised, can be far too harsh a word for what I usually practise. Yet falsehood sounds altogether far too pretentious. Misdirection is merely a street performer’s code word for their art.

Like many people, I exploit human nature for my own gain, to weave a cocoon of truths around me that no one can see through. However, I have found a way to give my metaphorical cocoon physical existence. Writing.

In all my fictitious works, I place a vein of truth; in every truth, an element of fantasy. As you read, you will slowly find yourself encapsulated by my lies and you might be lucky enough to glimpse a fragment of the real me.

Who needs a cage when the mind is trapped?

If I haven't written today, obviously the words don't like me - I'll try wooing them more successfully tomorrow.
