Five Percent Embellished: September 2006
http://five-percent.blogspot.com/2006_09_01_archive.html
The title refers to the famous statement by James Frey (my evil twin cousin), who wrote a memoir, A Million Little Pieces. That was a bestseller on the self-help circuit. Oprah denounced him publicly when the book was shown to be "embellished." Frey told the viewers of Larry King Live that an embellishment ratio of 5 percent was ' appropriate for a memoir.' If so, then why not for a journal? This journal chronicles my last years in Southern California, as I plot my escape. Tuesday, September 05, 2006.
