The Godfather of creative non-fiction: Lee Gutkind
"We have become writers to help make a change in the world and by capturing the meaning of what it is we see and hear, what it is we observe, we can help change a very little bit of how a reader perceives an idea, a human being or a situation." This quote came from Lee Gutkind's website.
