Give me an idea what to do. If I have to prove all my stories, it limits the types of stories I can write. This story, for example, I could not have written, because the person may not want this information linked to him.
I have the choice between writing stories about people vaguely, and getting to select the interesting stories that fit, or writing stories I can source, which limits me to only a very few stories.
If I don't use any stories at all, then the posts are less interesting. Your comment puts me in a bind - I'm not sure what the way out is.
- TheSOB88 16y agoIgnore it, I guess. People should know that some people don't like their life stories being posted for everyone to see.

- cubes 16y agoWrite the stories you can source. Sure you'd write less, but it would have more impact. As is your writing is frequently vague and anecdotal, and easy to dismiss. I might be more inclined to believe the anecdotal stories if you had other posts with more meat to them. NB, I find it interesting that you refer to your posts as stories as your usage connotes that they are fiction.
