This post will illustrate the opening scene to my creative nonfiction essay. Hope you enjoy. Creative nonfiction essay
As I desperately stomp on the brake pad to stop my car's momentum I beep my horn frantically and apply pressure, as if the harder I press, the louder the horn will get. It to no avail. I clock my wheel sharply, at least 200 degrees. The wheels move. The car does not. It just simply proceeds against my will. That feeling washes over me again. that feeling that any human being can relate to. That imminent feeling of impending, potential doom. A beige van with a family of 5 residing inside is also in a predicament. They are in front of me and not moving at all. Angrily to myself I wonder, "Why can't they hear my damn ?" The reasons why didn't matter now. Boom! The van gets pushed like a small toddler, at least 10 feet. On the good note I lived and everyone was alright. On the downside, my car suffered the equivalent of a broken orbital socket to a human. I was absolutely livid and the first thing I remember doing was confronting the other driver for his lack of driving.
