I think a 'delayed recap' would probably be better then. And I think since I am so worried about somehow being stalked or even messing it up for myself, I may just change all the names to a 'code.' Does posting the houses out of the order I visit them help significantly?

I think if I added one or two fake chapters it could be better but I am just not sure I feel comfortable with it? It feels dishonest to me and even though I'd be lying to a bunch of women I have never met, I'd still feel like I was lying. I think it is a nice thought, though, but hopefully my measures will help at least to some extent? Maybe I am being naïve though and I should take even more measures to protect myself. I read 'Barbie's Guide To Writing an Honest Real-Time Sorority Recruitment Story' and there were a lot of tips in there, like not revealing campus (I wasn't going to do that til the end anyway), and even your class standing. Can saying 'I'm a senior rushing for a third time' help identify you? (I am not actually a senior rushing for a third time.)

The other thing is, in a general consensus, a story is more meaningful if it is more honest, right? As long as I am tactful, I would like to be as candid as I can. Do you think this would be a mistake?


Thank you both for all your help I really appreciate getting my questions answered!
