Hello,
I don’t want any sources in my essay. The basic idea for the piece is for you to get more comfortable writing about yourself. It’s non fiction, though — fiction is made-up stories, and this is creative non-fiction, so an actual story about your life but in a less formal way– being able to add sensory details and use metaphor to really put the reader in your shoes. We looked at memoir, which is a story from your life (maybe a person or moment that changes your perspective) literary personal essay (examining some outside phenomenon through the lens of your own experience) the open letter (ranting about something that bothers you) and familiar essay (using your own experience but zooming way out too — like the Fadiman piece). Any of these approaches are acceptable.
