In Brief: Short Forms in Creative Nonfiction

Can you tell a story in 750 words? The online literary magazine, Brevity, answers this question. With examples ranging from lyric essay, memoir, and other hybrid forms, we will take a closer look at how writers of creative nonfiction take on the task of creating narrative arc, developing characters, and capturing their lived experiences in a small space. Prompts will be provided as we try our hand at crafting big stories into their most essential parts on the page.
