Show Notes:

(Hard things for Memoirists)

  • Making the truth interesting,

  • thinking of/understanding that a book is a tool in the publishing industry (reaching audience) Who are they talking to? Marketing can get in the way.

  • reliving, (self-care when writing hard stuff) (seek a therapist if needed for re-traumatization)

  • separating self from the character. (In order to receive feedback.)
