Creative Nonfiction: A Guide to Form, Content, and Style, with Readings
Eileen Pollack
CREATIVE NONFICTION: A GUIDE TO FORM, CONTENT, AND STYLE, WITH READINGS is a writing guide and integrated reader that teaches forms (such as the journey, the narrative, and the profile), not just content (such as writing about family or nature). Other books tend to leave students in the dark about the processes that creative writers of nonfiction use in approaching their topics or to focus on just one kind of writing--the personal narrative. CREATIVE NONFICTION introduces students to a range of forms so they can use the techniques in many different writing situations--from first-year composition or service-learning courses to creative writing workshops, feature writing, and memoir writing.
