Creative Nonfiction
Creative nonfiction is a genre of writing that combines factual accuracy with literary techniques like vivid storytelling and character development to engage readers emotionally. It bridges the gap between journalism and fiction, allowing real-life events to be presented in a compelling narrative form, which has gained popularity in modern media for its ability to humanize true stories without altering facts.
