The Nieman Program on Narrative Journalism at Harvard University runs a wonderful site for writers, the Nieman Narrative Digest.

The site is updated with new features about narrative journalism about every two weeks. Recent pieces include “Stories Are Everywhere” by author Adrian Nicole LeBlanc and “14 Tips for Building Character” by Rick Meyer, a narrative editor at the Los Angeles Times.

But my favorite part of the site is the database called “Notable Narratives,” a collection of scores of examples of excellent narrative journalism.

You can search the database by topic, by publication or even by format (long feature, short feature and serial).
