Welcome to A-Bit True Fiction, real life stories one step removed.

Maybe you have a story that is too personal to share as a memoir? Or perhaps you played a role in a story about someone you know. Find freedom in disguising yourself and them as characters in a story based on real life. Gain anonymity, mix it up a little, develop an instinct for getting inside other characters, and keep the reader guessing!

Above all, engage us, make us think, make us laugh, make us feel!
