Write Nonfiction: The Personal Essay
Details
This lecture will begin with a brief presentation on the techniques employed by professional writers to compose works of creative nonfiction (also sometimes called “narrative nonfiction”). It will then proceed to the main portion, in which participants will employ some of these techniques to produce a paragraph or two of writing, and then read their work aloud to get feedback from the other members of the group. At the end of the lecture, I will provide some brief tips on how to submit articles for publication (i.e., the query letter) to magazines.
