A Writer as a Friend?

A: I can't be friends with a writer

B: Why?

A: My secret can't be safe with a writer. A writer won't even think twice before using my life situations as a story.

B: And why do you think that he wouldn't use your life issue as a story if you're not his friend?

A: Huh?

B: Huh. You see, when you are close to the writer, even if it's your life events, no one reading it will know because of how he'd present it. But once you two are not that close, he has no reason to hide it. It will be glaring enough to any reader.
