I've known what right and wrong since I was 10
I have great hopes that James Frey will take what has happened and use this experience to improve his life. I would invite him to pack a bag, come back to St Paul, spend some time at the Fellowship Club, hang out on Grand Ave., hit some meetings, get a sponsor, perhaps a little job at Caribou or Starbucks, learn some humility. I might save his life. I was saddened to see how he was not able to accept accountability for his choices.
The good news is that there is a solution, and I don't think the solution is "just hang on".

Im a recent regular lurker, love your site, also followed the whole James Frey thing and just wanted to point out that it was 2 HOURS in a sheriffs bldg, not a prison or a 2 day stretch at all.

Recorded that Oprah - off to watch it in a couple of hours...
I certainly fee a bit duped. I've only read about half of the book and doubt I'll finish it. It's not what it was...

I have known the difference between right and wrong since I was 5 too. I just don't always do the right thing....

Bounced into your blog from another favorite read of mine, and I'm hooked. And I actually read the entries, too...honest!
