From what I've been able to gather, attributes of creative nonfiction can be a little varied. What I know for sure is that, obviously, whatever stories are told in this genre are ones that actually took place. They are either direct recollections of actual events or based on events that the author is attempting to remember as closely as possible. Originally, I thought creative nonfiction was just ones memoirs written more like poetry rather than just straight narration but there seems to be more to it than that. I'm curious about what different things comprise the genre as and look forward to learning about them.
