I love your definition of “faction”

Hmm, thought I wrote on this one, but don’t see it. Yes, I love your definition of “faction”. One can easily say, “facts are real, fiction is not,” but it’s not always as simple as that. What is pure fiction one year, one moment, can become fact the next. Look up Jules Vern, “2,000 Leagues Under the Sea,” for example, and there’s many, many more like that. But in Miss Anabelle’s case, her story is fiction, meaning made up in its details, but the idea behind it, the “line of logic,” as Mark Hamilton puts it, makes perfect sense–it’s very logical in its progression. And creating works of this sort has long been a traditional mode of teaching, of pulling the student into a way of thinking, and allowing them to ‘step into another world’ by use of imagination.
