John Fox 50 CNF Prompts

Creative Nonfiction (CNF) is my literary home. I love the art for the sake of art, and I love the story of other people's lives, struggles, and successes. This is by no means a comprehensive listing and does not constitute an endorsement. It's meant as a resource for emerging writers of CNF. If you know of a resource I have yet to list, please send me an email or Tweet it at me (ha, the one time I won't say, "don't @ me").
