As mush as this appeals to me too, it is very hard to tell a character story in this fashion. Without characters we care about, most readers find fiction boring.
Just in general, I wish “fictional non-fiction” were a bigger thing. I would love to get a massive crate of random documents and clippings that tell a very complex, nonlinear story with lots of red herrings & easily missed detailshttps://twitter.com/webdevmason/status/986283423370113024 …

I actually think you can tell a much better character story, e.g. through personal letters — choice of stationary, handwriting, signature, whether or not there's a coffee stain at the edge. Could be very, very rich.

Ada, or Ardor by Nabokov has hundreds of red herrings and verrry easily missed details. You can tell VV was positively giddy while writing it. House of Leaves by Mark Danielewski is also like this (layered fiction/non-fiction), though not nearly as good a book.

Isn't that just Fox News? Or is that not a complex enough story?
