I turn to fiction because of the hubris of non-fiction's posing as fact when, in fact, fact is in the arty-facts.

Most of us (usual caveat) are "boring-assed people."  However, we are rounded by our very/actual existence, (if not well-rounded).

Face it, with few exceptions, we're all boring-assed people leading stultifyingly dreary lives (I'm guiltier here than most), with nary a well-developed character, plot line or theme in sight.  That's why we turn to fiction ...
