New Lesson: Reportage/ Literary Journalism

Discussion of Literary Journalism
Literary journalism is another essay form that is best reserved for intermediate and
advanced level courses, but it can be incorporated into introductory and
composition courses. Literary journalism is the creative nonfiction form that comes
closest to newspaper and magazine writing. It is fact-driven and requires research
and, often, interviews.
Literary journalism is sometimes called “immersion journalism” because it requires
a closer, more active relationship to the subject and to the people the literary
journalist is exploring. Like journalistic writing, the literary journalism piece should
be well-researched, focus on a brief period of time, and concentrate on what is
happening outside of the writer’s small circle of personal experience and feelings.
How to write a literary journalistic essay:
To write the literary journalistic essay, do the following:
1. Select a topic.
2. Conduct Research.
3. Write a dramatic story.
4. Include a lead, facts/content, and ending.
You can write about anything. Popular topics include:
