A trendy word in publishing recently is “autofiction,” short for “autobiographical fiction.” The term isn’t new. It was first invented in 1977 by author Serge Doubrovsky when talking about his memoir-sh novel, Fils.
And what about those Creative Nonfiction essays that fill literary magazines? (A goldmine for memoir writers.) Can you call them autofiction?

The Battle of Shepherdstown
The day started like any other. But little did the residents of the small town of Shepherdstown know that it would go down in history.
The sun had barely risen when the first shots were fired. The Battle of Shepherdstown, also known as the Second Battle of Antietam, was underway.
For hours, the fighting raged back and forth. The town was caught in the middle, and soon it was nothing but rubble.

The town of Shepherdstown would never be the same. And the residents would never forget that historic day.
