Genres of Writing, For Dummies

Here's is how writing works:  there are many different genres of writing.  Fiction, nonfiction.  Poetry, drama, memoirs, biographies, autobiographies, short stories, novels, science fiction, and so forth.

Please take note of the fact that these genres can be mixed; in other words, some fiction has a basis in fact, and some nonfiction takes liberties with truth.

Don't judge people (and their subsequent writing) on what you do or do not think is "REAL".

It's all up for interpretation.  Just read and enjoy.  Don't insert your own reality or your own biases on a writer's message.

Drink it in, and let it be independent of you.
