(2023)A Little White Lie 2023
Shriver tells the story of a small liberal arts college that is desperately trying to make a splash in the literary world. Thinking they have found a famous writer who has been hiding for 20 years, the group invites him to a writers conference and the story begins. Unfortunately, the man they find is an unfortunate mechanic who has never read a book in his life and cannot distinguish between fantasy and reality. With nothing to lose, the man accepts an invitation to attend a college literature festival, but things take a turn for the worse when a "real" writer arrives to bring him out.
