Keep It Real: Everything You Need to Know About Researching and Writing Creative Nonfiction
The one guide every creative nonfiction writer needs to turn to when being "creative." Writers of memoir and narrative nonfiction are experiencing difficult days with the discovery that some well-known works in the genre contain exaggerations--or are partially fabricated.
