This is the first comprehensive guide to what social fiction is and how to write it. In an engaging, personal tone, Patricia Leavy explores the unique contribution that creative writing--such as novels, series, and short stories--can make to addressing qualitative research questions. In-depth discussions of narrative models and elements are accompanied by excerpts from Leavy's published fiction, reflections on the writing process, and technical suggestions. The book offers evaluation criteria for social fiction as well as practical publishing advice. Instructive features include "tip bubbles, " end-of-chapter exercises, and an appendix with suggested readings.
