No words?  You need a creative writing course!  :)

I didn’t know about Creative Writing in Non-fiction, but it does seem
to be a real thing.
I think it is basically trying to make boring facts interesting.

See: <https://www.tckpublishing.com/creative-nonfiction/>
Quote:
The term “creative nonfiction” tends to puzzle many writers and
readers. If nonfiction is supposed to be about the facts, how is there
room to get “creative” with it?

It turns out, there are many ways to present real facts and events
besides boring reports and charts. In fact, the best journalists and
writers are often the ones who can present accurate information while
also telling a riveting story.

Creative nonfiction combines 100% factual information with literary
elements to tell real stories that resonate with readers and provide
insight to actual events.
