    Abstract

    This article explores and shares the creative journey and interpretive process I experienced when creating fiction as a qualitative researcher. I seek to accomplish three things:(a) to articulate the process of creation and interpretation; (b) to revisit the burgeoning literature that argues for the use of fiction and other poetic, artistic writing as useful contributions to scholarly research; and (c) to show how the creation of fiction can usefully show other truths and different viewpoints.
