The Oracle Code
“Tonight, she worked on the true story, the one about the scrolls and her role in absconding with them.
She’d promised Lourds that she wouldn’t send it in without his approval—of the release, not the words. The only reason she had agreed to that was because she wanted the whole story, not half of one.
The frustrating thing was that the half of a story she had was really exciting. It was also daunting to write. Nearly all of it was autobiographical, with her firmly in the main viewpoint. She wasn...’t comfortable doing that, and most news stories weren’t written in such a fashion.
But this one necessitated it.
The honesty she was forced to employ to get the story told was draining. It was much easier to tell a story outside herself, to simply group the facts into a fashion that made reading and understanding easy for a reader.
Taking the reader along as a co-adventurer was much more difficult. She didn’t like the proximity between her and the story. In many ways, she was the story.MoreLess
