[quote=Anonymous]If she's writing poetry, I don't think anyone assumes that everything she writes is factual. Poetry, even confessional poetry, is still fiction. It's pretty normal for people writing fiction based on their own lives to change things in order to convey the feeling or message or story that they want to tell. And who cares if she "gets credit" for having had experiences she didn't have? If you're asked about an event, you can say that it didn't really happen, but that you admire your sister's talent for conveying emotional truths (or whatever). [/quote]
