@PeterShor Yup, and I clearly mention that in my answer that while 'they' is a gender-neutral singular, the word to be used in the OP's situation is, in fact, 'we'. So I'm not sure of the point of this comment?
I don't think there's a consistent word in use, but perhaps something like pseudo-non-fiction might convey the intent? The phrases "creative non-fiction" and "literary journalism" are used to refer to 'real' non-fiction written in literary styles, but i'm not able to find anything more specific that pseudo-X for the opposite phenomenon.
