Donna doesn't have computer access at the moment and asked if I would post this link to the book she mentioned on our last call. 

The Fourth Genre is the first teaching anthology to draw on the common ground both of the practicing writer and the practical scholar. It offers the most thorough, comprehensive, and teachable introduction to the cutting-edge and still evolving genre widely known as “creative nonfiction”. While focusing on the genre’s varying shapes and forms, it also highlights creative nonfiction’s literary qualities, as well as the singularities that identify it as an integral part of the literary spectrum that includes poetry, fiction, and drama. In an effort to bridge the gap between the teaching of composition, creative writing, and literature in English departments, The Fourth Genre points out the pedagogical connections between creative writing practice and composition theory. The selections represent the full range of contemporary creative nonfiction: personal narrative, essay, memoir, literary journalism, and personal cultural criticism.

Thanks, Donna!
