situations.? I am trying to write a creative nonfiction book that retells events from a past abusive relationship (domestic violence, spiritual abuse, verbal abuse, etc). I have written most of it, but have encountered concerns about defamation of character. So, I wanted to read how other women and/or men have written books about abusive relationships where the situations are detailed out. This way, I can see how others have been able to retell the horrific stories of living through abuse without getting into legal issues of defamation of character. But I have had no luck finding any such books. There are mostly self help books out there but none that retell the events. The only books I can find are fiction books. Can you help point me to some books that would fit this description?
