A work of creative nonfiction, if well written, contains accurate and well-researched information and also holds the interest of the reader. Creative nonfiction is contrasted to research nonfiction which may contain accurate information but may not be particularly well-writted.

Narrative nonfiction is a type of creative nonfiction which tells a story, for example, Black Hawk Down by Mark Bowden. Black Hawk Down began as a series of newspaper and internet articles. As an internet series the author had the benefit of extensive feedback from its viewers.
