Very interesting …

 Essay Daily: Talk About the Essay: Dec 9: Silas Hansen on Sarah Einstein’s “Self-Portrait in Apologies”. (Hat tip,  Virginia Kerr.)

This last question asks students to tell me the single essay we read that taught them the most about writing creative nonfiction, the most important thing it taught them, and how they did something similar in their own work.

     Every semester, without fail, no matter what other essays I teach, a solid 75% of students (often more) choose the same essay: “Self-Portrait in Apologies” by Sarah Einstein.
