From Gary,

One of the great things about creative nonfiction is that it is open to everyone. All you need is a pen, some paper and a past.

Creative nonfiction uses a variety of creative writing techniques to tell a true story in a literary way. It is storytelling vs. reporting. We will define the basic elements of story structure, explore the style and substance of both narrative and expository writing, and discover how to combine the two.
