Abstract

Journalism
Metaphor, detail, and human appeal, which are generally considered writing techniques 1 used in fiction, are the methods I found to be most useful in making a piece of nonfiction ) interesting to a general readership, and therefore making it 'literary journalism,' part of the creative nonfiction field. These points show that literary journalism has a high standard to uphold, being exciting and interesting while still adhering to factual evidence.
