It's bad enough (in an entertaining way, but still) when readers who are probably nice, reasonable, intelligent people think a fake story is real.
But today I had to edit a review of a non-fiction book by a nice, reasonable, intelligent person who thought it was a novel.
Striving to be a nice, reasonable person myself (I can't do anything about the intelligence), I decided I had no need to fire off an email saying, "Hey, that's a true story!!"
But the review needed some tweaking. Oh well, that's what I'm there for.
