Created April 16, 2026 · Updated April 16, 2026
Description
Create story openings with carefully crafted unreliable narrators, complete with their deception patterns, tells, and the truth hidden beneath their version of events.
Instructions
Select the source of unreliability to determine why the narrator distorts the truth. Genre shapes the kind of story being told. Voice quality defines how the narrator sounds on the page. The tell pattern controls how clues are woven in. For psychological depth, use self-deception with literary fiction. For thriller energy, use deliberate lies with high stakes. The gap between the narrator's version and reality is where the story's power lives.
