This is your roadmap for completing the memoir you’ve dreamed about writing.
Everyone has a story worth telling.
This isn’t just for people who already call themselves writers.
You have a story, my friend. Even if you’ve only ever dreamed of writing your story down, to pass on to kids or grandkids or that guy who thought you’d never amount to anything (that guy’s a jerk, by the way, and I’m not inviting him to my hot tub party for what he did to you), this is your instruction manual.
In this book, you’ll learn:
- What a memoir is, exactly
- Why you should (and why you shouldn’t) write a memoir
- How to start it, and how to get it done
- How to structure your story to make it truly satisfying to your reader
- How to tell the truth when memory is fallible or weak
- How to protect loved one’s feelings
- How to actually make yourself write
- How to revise it after you type The End
- How to get it published
This book isn’t just about memoir, though.
This book is a collection of every tip and trick I’ve ever learned about writing. If you’re only interested in writing novels or poems or short-stories, this book is still for you.
Based on the curriculum I put together when teaching this class at Stanford (which is a $650 class, y’all), Fast-Draft Your Memoir is only $5.99 in ebook, or $11.99 in print. It’s also awesome to order it from your local library (libraries are the best!) if you’re on a budget!
