Blog #3


I enjoy creative nonfiction because it has to do with real life, true scenarios, that could happen to anyone of us. I enjoy the blunt, straightforward language that is used in most of this writing and especially when there is a sarcastic tone to it. My favorite creative nonfiction to read is probably about love and relationships. I believe it is the interaction and feelings between two individuals that catches my attention. This love or relationship does not necessarily have to be with a significant other. It could be a relationship between a mother and a daughter, two friends, a father and a son, etc. I believe that as a writer I also gravitate towards this kind of CNF. It is something that I could easily write about and enjoy at the same time.

  1. I also enjoy reading about relationships. I think the universality of the topic (everybody interacts with other people) and the emotional weight of it have a great appeal. I would also attribute some of my interest to schadenfreude; if I'm in a bad mood, I love nothing more than reading about someone else's relationship woes. Yes, I am a terrible person, hahaha.

  2. When reading about relationships I like who I can relate to the reading or even get an insist into a relationship I don't have. I also find it fun to read the "blunt and straight forward laungage" because it feels familiar and somewhat personal.

  3. I love that creative nonfiction is straightforward and when it has a sarcastic tone, it always makes me giggle. I also love writings about relationships. There is something so raw about real life stories being retold with such intense emotions. CNF is definitely fun to read and write as well!

  4. Reading about relationships is one of the best things! I feel like many times I can relate while reading about relationships. I also like reading about all relationships, relationships make up our life. We interact with people on a daily basis.
