Crafting Truth Reviews
-
I was surprised I loved this book as much as I did due to it being a textbook. My favorites were Thanks for the Memorex by Sarah Vowell and The American Man at Age Ten by Susan Orlean.
-
Although this is a textbook, it is much more readable than the typical text. Ballenger focuses more on specific genres of creative nonfiction than I do in my classes, but he is still a compelling author whose advice could be very helpful to anyone who wants to enhance her or his writing skills.
