Write about the ethical issues have come up for you in developing stories this term and discuss how you have resolved them.

The following sentences is the assignment:

In this issue of Creative Nonfiction, editor Lee Gutkind, author of You Can't Make This Stuff Up, discusses the James Frey case and outlines the parameters of ethics in creative nonfiction. Reading his overview will help you respond to this discussion prompt.

Memoirist James Frey's name has become synonymous with unethical journalism because he made up significant portions of his bestselling confessional addiction memoir A Million Little Pieces. Another nonfiction writer, Annie Dillard, writes powerfully about nature and life but tends to draw a curtain over her personal life, saying, "I tend not to write anything that would be upsetting to my family." For the emerging nonfiction writer, some of the ethical challenges are more practical: "I know I should be rendering this part of the story using scene-by-scene construction, but I was not there when the event happened, so how can I plausibly reconstruct it?" or "I saw what my sister did, and I know what I think she was thinking, but she did not tell me this explicitly. How can I frame my description of her thoughts?"

In preparing your initial post for this week, consider what ethical issues have come up for you in developing stories this term and discuss how you have resolved them. Provide concrete examples from your own experience.
