Stories have engaged humans throughout history—just think of the rich treasury of legends, folklore, and myths from cultures around the world designed to teach moral and societal lessons. The human brain has an affinity for narrative—it actually remembers more from narrative than other styles of writing. Narrative, or creative, nonfiction is a growing method for experts to share their knowledge in a way that readers can embrace. It balances substance with style and uses stories to engage readers and convey facts. In this portion of the workshop, we will explore narrative nonfiction, its use of scenes, and the balance of the creative and the factual. And most importantly how participants can integrate narrative into their nonfiction writing.
