How do writers publishing across genres walk the delicate line between the management of narrative and its invention? How do they resist twisting the truth in their personal narratives, and sharing too much of it in their fiction? All three writers on this panel have written extensively across genres, publishing in the novel, the short story, investigative journalism, memoir, personal essay and biography. Author Antonio-Ruiz Camacho, writer and journalist Amitava Kumar and author, journalist and writer-at-large for Vanity Fair, Marie Brenner, bring their vast and varied experience to bear on a lively discussion of walking the line between fact and fiction. The panel will be moderated by Jan Ellison, award-winning author of short stories, essays and a novel.
