Living Fiction: Cheeky Memoirs of How a D.I.D. System Became a Manipulator's Personal Puppet Show. Twice. (Living Fiction Duology Book 1)

“I can channel Arannan because he exists. Because he’s real! These people like Aberle that you claim you know— they’re not!”Maybe Rowan was right. Maybe I never had enough reason to believe about half of my friends actually existed. Maybe I was delusional. The kind of liar that doesn’t even know they’re lying. Except… “But you told me you met Aberle in person. And slept with him.”Your life is ruined, so you might as well write about it.No telling if it'll be a cult classic or manifesto, but writing is all you're good at anyway. God knows you'd outlive the sun to get the last word in.How did it end up like this? "The predictable story of how a hopeless romantic moved across the country just to be betrayed. Twice."? "The existential nightmare of how I found out the people I care about weren't real. Twice!" Then again, your attachment to reality was never a solid one, was it? Did it start with the faeries? Or maybe the one you dated that thought they were a vampire? (Which one?) "The tragic tale of how your dumbass dated someone who thought they were a vampire. Twice."Tracing your steps back, you start to realise that you weren't the only victim of the Faerie Cult. "Bitter memoirs of how my 'friends' broke into my room and read my journals. Twice. No, three times. No, four. Five---" "Startling reports of how the supposed 'faerie' Actually Poisoned Someone. Twice." Oh, so you're not the only one with bad habits.Maybe you have a chance to finally sort yourself out. Now that you know you have Dissociative Identity Disorder, now that you understand that these aren't 'ghosts' or 'interdimensional beings' or 'past-lives' you're channeling, but alters. And as it so happens, taking down an empire of manipulation is a group project. Say what you want about cults, but they do bring people together.But what happened to the old host? Why did they disappear and leave you with this mess? And, more pressing, how do you stop the same thing from happening to you? Read more
