Learn to Write Creative
Nonfiction like a Pro
Memoirs. Blogs. Biographies. Creative nonfiction is more popular than ever.
We all have a story to share, but most of us don’t know where to start or
how to tell it in a way that’s compelling to others.
Writing Creative Nonfiction is your chance to tap into your inner writer
and find your voice. Taught by New York Times best-selling author and
award-winning writing instructor Professor Tilar J. Mazzeo of Colby
College, you’ll explore the entire writing process, from brainstorming for
the perfect idea to getting your final product noticed by literary agents and
publishers. These 24 inspirational lectures are packed with exercises, tricks of
the trade, and practical advice you’ll continue to draw on every time you sit
down to write.
