From the Back Cover

Fact and Artifact focuses on the process of writing nonfiction. These processes are derived from the way real writers actually write; they are flexible and versatile so that they can be adapted to individual emphasis and aims. In addition, the book devotes separate chapters to the types of nonfiction most commonly written and published: writing about people, places, performance, humor, processes, science, and controversy.
