During times of grief, therapists recommend jotting down feelings, memories, and observations in a notebook.
Neal Motherwell takes this practice to the extreme, sometimes writing twenty-thousand words in a single day.
Neal thought he’d left an abusive childhood behind until his brother Mick dies, forcing him into a search for authenticity in a world of deceit.
A Parable of Lies is not a novel but an experiment in healing fiction, an illustration of writing as an act of redemption and renewal.
Writing prompts are embedded in the narrative.
