Creative Nonfiction

  • Hey guys, so this is a very short nonfiction essay-type thing that I wrote for a creative nonfiction course. The prompt was to state our stance on a controversial issue, so I chose sex education because as someone who went to a public middle school and a private Catholic high school… I feel pretty strongly

  • Hey guys, After spending months on a pretty depressing fictional story, I wanted to take a break from that and focus on something a little bit more lighthearted and not so R-rated. But this one won’t be as silly as the last one mostly because Sootie’s not a kitten anymore and I wanted to show

It’s another creative nonfiction piece, and I thought of this idea while I was playing with him the other day.  He’s had a pretty exciting

    (Disclaimer: This is going to be pretty long, so I’m going to list the section names and you can either read through the whole thing, or simply look under the sections that you want to read about.) I’m at risk of sounding too cliché (and possibly boring) with this nonfiction, opinionated letter to my younger
