Every wanna be memoirist needs this book
I read this book in a couple of days and found it to be incredibly helpful. I wrote memoir for my dissertation in creative writing at university and was looking for some guidelines and tools to assist me, this book has it all. Barrington takes the reader step by step through the process of memoir writing and highlights the do's and dont's in each informative chapter. Her greatest piece of advice is to read, read, read as many memoirs as possible prior to the task. This book is not for everyone, after all not everyone wants to write a memoir, but for me, the book did its job and will be a very useful tool. I would recommend this to all aspiring memoirists.
