Writing Creative Nonfiction

I ordered this because I wanted something useful for when I experience writer's block. Along with the insight from writers whose work I love, there are exercises at the end of each chapter to help with revising/improving your own work. Highly recommend.

I like and learn with this book. It presents essential information for writers in a creative 'easy-to-read' format. Well written and worth the price.

This book approaches the subject differently from any other books about non-fiction writing. He covers important topics such as libel, legal issues, and writing about wartime and violent weather. Humor is difficult to put in non-fiction, but he makes it sound easy. This is a book for all writers.

I'm far from finishing, even retired people have lives. I've only read two of the essays and have learned that the stories (chapters) I've been writing but fictionalizing may be to creative to be creative nonfiction. The writing suggestions in the essays are still useful.

I am making a move from fiction into non-fiction. This book has well written articles that talk about the author's expreiences in writing non-fiction but did not contribute greatly to my understanding of the gendre.
