Turn a true story into an engaging page-turner by exploring interview methods, writing techniques, and character development for non-fiction writing
Through non-fiction, we can write true-life books that are as vivid and engaging as novels while connecting readers to stories of real people, just like them. Specializing in narrative non-fiction, writer and editor Duncan Barrett does exactly that. He creates testaments to lives and stories that might otherwise be forgotten while writing engaging page-turners. His bestselling work includes The Sugar Girls and GI Brides, and his book Men of Letters was nominated for the People's Book Prize.
In this course, he teaches how to mix interview methods with writing techniques from fiction. Discover how to build background and weave key themes throughout your narrative and your characters. Learn how to take the tales of ordinary people and translate them into powerful literature.
