NOW ONLINE: "RECLAMATION" Our latest issue, "First Lede, Real Lead," has been garnering an excellent response from our readers; not only have we received a slew of emails saying as much, but the sheer number of online visitors has been astounding. It's great to see so many people getting involved and interacting, not only with the writing, but with each other.
So a big thank you to everyone who has commented thus far. The conversation surrounding Laurie Uttich's piece, "Crazy Talk," is engaging and insightful. As promised, we continue to post essays online in a manner that pits the submitted form vs. the edited form. New this week is Carrie Seymour's "Reclamation," so keep the conversation going and join the discussion today. Tell us: Did we ruin the essay? Did we make it better? Did we do anything at all? Share your thoughts with us and the rest of the CNF community. |

CNF'S NO-RESIDENCY WRITING PROGRAM Flexible schedule. One-on-one interaction. Customized courses. Here at Creative Nonfiction, we understand that not everyone wants or needs a degree to become a better writer. We also understand that in economic times such as these, there aren't a lot of people with the funds to invest in a two or three year MFA program or even a summer conference. And besides, who wants to pay all that money--travel, lodging, tuition--just to be one of many in a classroom or conference setting? CNF's mentoring programs offer writers of all levels one-on-one access to one of our accomplished mentors (who, by the way, aren't just great writers, but experienced teachers and editors, too). So save some money and get the personalized attention you want and deserve. All of our courses are tailored to meet your specific needs, whether you're looking for help kick-starting a writing project or putting the final touches on a manuscript. Our mentors can help you set realistic goals, illuminate your skills, address your weaknesses, and help build your confidence as a writer. We can help with book proposals, as well. Work with the organization that is the voice of the genre, and make an investment in your writing career now! For more information, click here. |
