Focussing on authorial imaginary, this article seeks to determine what leads American lawyers-turned-authors to project negative fictional images of their own profession. After a brief introduction to FASP (specialised fictional narrative) and other defining parameters of this discussion, we examine the vocation/avocation profile of the lawyer-author and the commonalities which facilitate the crossover from lawyer to author. We then go on to discuss the diegetic and extradiegetic foregrounding of the FASP author’s original status as a domain specialist. After presenting three broad categorisations of lawyer protagonists and the predominance of negative lawyer portrayals, we look at different reasons which help understand the phenomenon. To conclude, in a departure from customary denunciation of such negative portrayals, we attempt to find elements of a more positive fallout
