It made me feel good that you never tire of reading memoirs (especially those of people you know, even just a bit.) I was doing this search because I am in the process of writing memoirs. I just listened to a recorded webinar about marketing one's book, and the speaker (an author himself said, "Don't sell your book - sell its benefits, what it does for the reader." Great. My memoirs are doing a lot for me, but I don't really know what a reader will get out of them! Will they improve an older reader's memory by getting them thinking about their own experiences? Will they give anyone a good laugh? I guess I need a few good memoir lovers to read them and tell me what they got out of it. Or maybe I should just go back and write a How To book. Sorry for the wordy comment; thanks for your blog.<BR/> -StanMAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
