Hi all,
I recently posted a biographical short story on the nonfiction show your work section. The problem is, the person is mentally disturbed, and the work is purposely disjointed and there is one small section that breaks into the fantasy world she has created in her mind. All of the sections beside that one are actual occurrences in her life, including the present day sections that are woven throughout.
I'm just wondering if there is a market for writing such as this? Is it something I should just scrap for a more mainstream approach?
I didn't want to post it in this thread, considering it's already posted elsewhere, but I'd appreciate any responses. It's the only thing that I've ever written that could come even close to being classified as nonfiction, so I'm really in the dark here.
Here's the link to the thread containing the short story:
