s'truth, honest, really is.
As a reader I am not interested in the author at all or anything he she has to say, particularly before reading the story. I like to read and wonder about the story and the characters in it. Anything said by the author beforehand gets in the way of ones relationship to the story.
Possibly the saddest "true" stories are the ones where a writer claims they are true then writes a thinly disguised repeat a month or so later with regular repetition of the same truth in subsequent stories ad infinitum.
After the story the author can say what they like; it's too late then!
