When writing nonfiction, an author has a responsibility to accurately convey information based on facts and research. While there is flexibility in how the information is presented and organized, the author must adhere to the truth and avoid fictional elements. This means that nonfiction writers have the freedom to explore different perspectives and interpretations within the boundaries of truth and credibility.
