Blog 6.5 Creative Non-fiction

I think that what Frey did is uncalled for. I can't say that I've read any of his books, but reading the article made me angry. I know that I wouldn't want to be misrepresented in the way that he did that to the people in his book. I also think that it is crazy that he tried to at first sell it as a fiction novel and then got away with saying it was nonfiction. The sad part is that Frey is making so much money off of his books but no one knows what is actually true. I think that saying you spent three months instead of the reality of only a few hours should not be allowed in nonfiction. Hours in jail is completely differant from months. I don't think that the charectors in the book reacted to the falsehoods like I would. Honestly I don't think they reacted strongly enough. If it was me I would probably try to write a book exposing Frey and make millions off of him.
