My preference for all matters in life is truth and logic but
I love abstract ideas that can paint an idea in numerous ways. I think that is what appeals the most to me
about creative nonfiction. Being that it
is nonfiction writing the stories written are based on real and honest information and I love true stories. However, the best part of CNF is that there is the freedom of creativity. The writer uses literary techniques and their
creative styles to write real stories in captivating ways that is not typically
drawn out in nonfiction writing. CNF makes typically boring, true stories more entertaining to read. As a
reader I am drawn to memoirs. As a
writer I think I am gravitating more toward personal essays or opinion essays.
I agree, the best part of CNF is the freedom of creativity. You can write your story anyway you want! Its taking different ideas and putting them out in different ways and its definitely a refreshing and fun read and write genre. Its never boring (if done right) so it makes it so much fun to read and write. I too gravitate to personal essays as well.
ReplyDeleteI agree with you! It is great that there is freedom of creativity but it is also a true story. There is nothing like reading a true story or true information with a fun or creative twist to it.
