Creative Nonfiction--whatever the heck that is

In my Creative Writing class we're starting Creative Nonfiction. I had never even heard of this genre until I started the class. Simply put, it's nonfiction that's written similar in style to fiction. Mostly it's personal things that have happened to you and you can apply outward to humanity in general. I'm looking forward to getting into a new genre, although I know that my life hasn't been terribly interesting so far.

And I'm really excited, because I've had an idea in my head for nearly two years now, and I think it's finally time to put it onto paper (or computer screen). I'll need a few more weeks to prep for it most likely, but I can feel the moment of concentrating on it is right.
