This is me - Graeme Smith. Professional liar. I tell people - readers, I mean - that things that never really happened actually did happen, and that they happened to people who don't really exist. And, if I do it right, for a while, even if just for a moment (or a page, a chapter, a book) - they believe me. Readers, I mean. They believe. Heck, if I'm lucky, if they bought one of my books, I get paid to lie to them! Samuel Taylor Coleridge (who got to be famous, at least in part, by not even _finishing_ a lie) called it the 'suspension of disbelief'. He thought it was a Good Thing(tm). Tolkien - dragons and hobbits and elves, oh my - thought it wasn't. He believed in 'secondary belief' and thought suspension of belief was for wusses. But really, that's what authors - fiction authors - are. Professional liars. Well, the ones who manage the 'getting paid' thing :-). There we are. Or, possibly, here we are (blush). This is me - Graeme Smith, Fantasy author. Time was, I worked on a psychiatric ward. Now I write about people who believe in magic and dragons, and who live where the folk who _don't_ are the ones who need help :-). Welcome to my worlds! Sit down, pull up a chair - and I'll lie to you some :-).
