Here is the link to my newest fanfiction.

The Liberty Of Lies
By Jo Z. Pierce

Elwood was the quiet one, but at least he knew how to write a letter or two. Sometimes they even contained the truth.

WARNINGS: T rated, but will soon be MA. Strong language. Major Mary Sue. Go ahead and flame. I don't care. It's a Mary Sue... by definition, bad...


Only chapter one is up. For those of you who like this sort of thing, I would recommend signing up for author alerts, so you will know when new chapters are posted. The reason I say that is that it may be fun to receive these in the mail...

Also, it is currently rated at T. But it will eventually go to MA. That means it will at some point disappear from the list of BB stories. So I reccommend bookmarking it, or story alerting it.

Read it, and you will figure out why...

Thanks, Bro! I've already got about 5 chapters (don't worry, they are shorter), and a few more in the brain....

Just read and left a review...

Part of the comment was erased by FF.net. Don't bullsh*t me and promise me you'll write some more...

Yes. I already have five more chapters... but I am spacing them out... and will post a bit at a time...

It will add to the drama and suspense.

Trust me.

Just like waiting for a real letter to arrive.

:D

I remember 'Out of Africa' with Meryl Streep and how she'd make up a story on the cuff while sitting around the bon fire. She captivated her audience...

As is your gift...

Jake: You were outside, I was inside. You were supposed to keep in touch with the band. I kept asking you if we were gonna play again.
Elwood: What was I gonna do? Take away your only hope? Take away the very thing that kept you going in there? I took the liberty of bull****ting you.
Jake: You lied to me.
Elwood: Wasn't lies, it was just... bull****.

Work with me, Blue... work with me...

Nah. I have never lied to you. I love mimes and midgets, or at least the stories we tell of them. I am fascinated by nomads.

The only lie is about the paper bags. In reality, I turn a few heads. A few stomachs, too, but that's something else.


So tell me, is there a difference between lying and weaving tales?


I have to say one of the best tv characters IMHO of all times was Garak from Star Trek.

Best Line Ever
Garak: The truth is usually just an excuse for a lack of imagination.


If you're still reading, I'm doing my job...


But the Best conversation is this:

Bashir: So of the stories you told me, which ones were true?
Garak: My dear doctor, all of them were true.
Bashir: What about the lies?
Garak: Especially the lies.

Followed closely by this one:

(Bashir tells the story of the boy who cried "Wolf")
Bashir: If you lie all the time, no one is going to believe you, even when you're telling the truth.
Garak: Are you sure that's the point, Doctor?
Bashir: Of course. What else would it be?
Garak: That you should never tell the same lie twice.

KIRK: "Everything Harry tells you is a lie -- remember that! Everything Harry tells you is a lie!"

MUDD: "Now listen to me carefully, Norman laddie; I - am - lying!"

"You lie, but if everything you say is a lie then you must be telling the truth, but you cannot be telling the truth because everything you say is a lie... you lie, you tell the truth, you– Illogical! Illogical! Please explain! You are human! Only humans can explain their behavior! Please explain!"

- Kirk and Mudd, delivering the final coup de grace to Norman using the old Greek Liar's Paradox

Ok. Chapter 3 is up.

I have other work and writing to do, so that will be it for a little while. It's a little bit of a cliff hanger, so maybe you will be excited when I get back to it.

I just read Chapter 3 - I loved the remark about Elwood's name... more original to come up with ! LOL

Elwood would have made a good detective - but we all know he's on the other side of the law.

**Wondering whether Vinnie knows that a private detective is also called a private d*ck**


I know he's on the wrong side of the law... but he's not really a bad guy, is he?

Ok. What do people think? Bad or good?

Or good, with a little devil around the edges?

Jake is just the devil inside... with a little angel around the edges... Thoughts?
