In writing a memoir I believe that the authors should be faithful to their readers and keep their stories faithful. If writing about their lives they shouldn’t feel the need to tell the readers something that didn’t actually happen because why write the story about yourself if your going to lie to make your lives look interesting to the reader. And that’s exactly what Glassco did. He used his lie to make it seem to the readers that he lived a very dramatic and entertaining life to bring some entertainment and spark to his stories. Furthermore, when proven facts actually showed that this author wasn’t telling the truth about past occurrences in his story or people that he had come across in his life. It brings a lot of thoughts to many about his memoirs, like if any of it is actual true or is his whole story a lie.
