Creative Non-Fiction
i just finished a class this semester called writing creative non-fiction. in it we discussed techniques for writing personal essays, nature essays, segmented essays, and memoirs (among other types of essays).
it was very interesting; i learned alot about a genre that i'd read many times before, but had never known what to officially call it. one of the topics we discussed was what constitutes "lying" in creative non-fiction? for example- the david sedaris controversy? or even the issue about the author of "a million little pieces"? does anyone have any creative non-fiction to put up? i'll put some of mine up soon...
