Creative Nonfiction

Winter 2019
Magazine

Creative Nonfiction is the voice of the genre. Every issue includes long-form essays blending style with substance; writing that pushes the genre’s boundaries; commentary and notes on craft; conversations with writers; and more. Simply put, Creative Nonfiction demonstrates the depth and versatility of the genre it helped define.

What’s the Story?

What We Don’t Talk About When We Talk About Drinking • Contemporary drinks writing will tell you a lot about pairings and flavors, but not very much about the effects of what you’re drinking. That wasn’t always the case, BETH KRACKLAUER explains in this potted history of cocktail coverage.

De-Mythologizing the Drunk Genius • LESLIE JAMISON on the differences between the narrative demands of a good story and the narrative demands of a good life.

The Lesson

The Cherry Birds

Bone Bread

A Righteous Bender

The Last Waylon Party

Starbucks and Shipwrecks

A Priest Walks Into a Bar • SARAH SHOTLAND makes the case for including more humor in addiction memoirs.

The Boozy Muse • SHEILA REGAN conducts a not-very-scientific investigation into the effect of drugs on writing (for the better!). KIRA COMPTON considers how sobriety has changed her writing habits (also for the better!).

EXPLORING THE BOUNDARIES

TINY TRUTHS • from winners of the daily #cnftweet contest
