Personal essays should impart a true story, written in a similar styling to (1st person) fiction. A winning piece of CNF @ Notes will include descriptions, dialogue, and characters. However, we like to see CNF that feels very intimate, that we come away from feeling as if we know the author personally.
Humor, poignancy, and thought provoking materials are always welcome.
