Overview
What you will study
As a report from the world – a mix of experience, observation, memory, opinion and hard fact – narrative non-fiction can be more dramatic, vivid and moving than any work of fiction. But what makes a book is the storytelling. Reporting, research, plot techniques, theme and tone of voice are your tools.
The Fact-based Storytelling course offered by City, University of London will look at the way narrative drives different genres including memoir, biography, travel and food writing.
