My name is Malik and i'm a writer. This is my first year at LaGuardia and i'm studying writing and literature. I write fiction and poetry at the moment and my intentions are to learn more and write more. I'm taking several creative writing class at the moment but this is my first time taking a non-fiction class. I'm a bit enthusiastic of getting involved with this class for i don't read much non-fiction works and bits i did read i never found interesting so i expect to be surprised by what i learn. I write mostly fiction short stories and try to write poetry that i enjoy.
Creative nonfiction describes a form of nonfiction that allows for more freedom to search other styles of writing. Non-fiction like historical accounts, biographies and journalism, creative nonfiction takes more liberty on how those are written. It accounts for the imagination while also using true events which is the biggest difference between creative and typical non-fiction.
