Tell It Slant: Writing and Shaping Creative Nonfiction by Brenda Miller

5.0

Oh! Detailed in both heart and craft, this book lays out resources and experiences in writing that both tell story, and tell how to story. But then, stories teach best, and Miller and Paola hold that fact true, and then demonstrate its truth. Through the liberal integration of excerpts, author quotes, and the authors' own writing and personal challenges and reflections, SLANT brings its reader concrete and clear guidance and grounding in the work of word-craft, and a diverse array of examples to draw from. I especially enjoyed the prompts and challenges closing out each chapter.
