Hello Memoir People, I'm relatively new here; I've been on the site for years, but am only recently more active. I'll jump in, and you'll tell me if I'm breaking protocol. I'm working on nearly two-year blog about my mother's twelve year journey...

Hello, I have been enjoying the articles posted on She Writes and thought it would also be helpful to join a group since I am not a professional writer. I have been somewhat alone these past couple years writing my memoir. I've been worried I will...

Hello, I am in the final stages of my memoir and feel as if it will never be perfect! I have hired an editor that has been working with me for sometime, but I feel I will need an additional pair of eyes to give a final review. Any suggestions on...

Hi all! I wrote my memoir (yay!) but I am this constant cycle of wanting to rewrite everything! I know I should get an editor or coach. Anyone have good experience working with someone?

Welcome new members. Please introduce yourself and your memoirs.

Hello! I'm 14 years old and hoping to participate in NaNoWriMo this year. I'm been battling writer's block lately, so any encouragement and/or tips would be greatly appreciated.

It's week 3 of NaNoWriMo 2019! And today's post is an update of how I'm faring so far. What had me stumped. And what has me worried about my progress for the rest of November. Who else is doing NaNoWriMo? How's your progress so...

I know there are a tone of memoir writers out there. I've seen them at conventions. I see shelves full of memoirs when I wander into one of the few bookstores left and I see pages and pages of them on Amazon. Hiding perhaps? Let's get this group...

Glad to see this group. I'd love to see links to your work on these areas. I am a meditation and yoga teacher, along with a writer, and I'm working on a nonfiction project that combines these areas. Would love to connect.

Hi all, I just posted an announcement to the group that I have returned to writing after a long hiatus. I am interested to see if anyone sees value in reviving this group and would love to get input on how we might make it useful! I have just...
