creative non-fiction?

Hi Q. If you've made everything up as you go along then that is fiction. But if you are writing from life experience then it's non-fiction. It all depends on where the story comes from. If you add humour into the mix that is probably your genre. I can agree with Edward that you need to look in the W&A book for an agent or click on 'Editorial Services' on the information bar at the top of this site. Hope this helps.

Here is a new nutter here; having just seen the question the answer came immediately, consider the fact that when God made man she was only joking !

Then log on to the damned youtube and locate the lectric light orchestra playing Hold On Tight To Your Dreams !

Sorry, just could not resist it . . . .
