In his novel "Illusions: The Adventures of a Reluctant Messiah," author Richard Bach (best known for "Jonathan Livingston Seagull"), writes, "If you will practice being fictional for a while, you will understand that fictional characters are sometimes more real than people with bodies and heartbeats."
That idea is taken to an extreme in the drama "Cult," premiering Tuesday, Feb. 19, on The CW.
The idea of a story within a story is not new, but in "Cult," there's the "fictional" world, the "real" world and a world that lies somewhere between the two.
When the events and characters of a tale enter the mind of a reader, listener or viewer, they blend with the memories, attitudes and personality already there, creating a version of the story that exists for that person alone.
But some stories, for whatever reason, have a strong influence on many minds. While it's usually benign, there's always...

When Justin Bieber was spotted on vacation in Hawaii with girlfriend Selena Gomez earlier this week, he showed off more than his beach body -- he debuted a new tattoo.
The tattoo in on his left rib cage (near his arm pit) and is a vertical inscription reading "Yeshua," which means "Jesus" in Hebrew. The Daily has a picture of the Bieb's new body ink here. Bieber reportedly got his new ink in Israel where he performed in April as part of his "My World" tour.
This is the 17-year-old pop star's second tattoo. He has a small bird tattooed on his lower hip. The bird is actually a seagull from the Richard Bach novella "Jonathan Livingston Seagull." Bieber got the first tattoo on his 16th birthday.

With the movies Dawn of the Dead, 300, Watchmen and the upcoming Legend of the Guardians: The Owls of Ga’Hoole (a.k.a., “The 3-D Animated Movie That Looks Like Lord of the Rings With Cool Owls”), Zack Snyder has become one of Hollywood’s most important and successful directors here in the current Geek Renaissance era of entertainment. Snyder has embraced the role of pulp cinema poet laureate (specialty: lyrical, slow-motion studies of punched faces or kicked bodies flying through the air), and, as such, has made it a priority to do the Joss Whedon and Kevin Smith thing...

Miley Cyrus might have sullied her squeaky-clean image (again!) by performing an impromptu lap dance, but Justin Bieber isn't too far behind.
Yep: The dream boy of every tween has gone and gotten himself inked. According to reports, Bieber, 16, got the tattoo because of his love of Richard Bach's famous book, "Jonathan Livingston Seagull." This teen-idol tat is bad news for parents dealing with their kids' unabated Bieber-mania. The Bieb's latest move could start a new trend of underage tattooing ... or a rush on "Jonathan Livingston Seagull" books.
Even though he had his dad's consent, isn't baby Bieber a little young to get a real (not rub-on!) tat? What do you think?...
