I have no idea why I took so long to create a Substack but I'm really happy to be here! So many of my lovely writer friends launched their own Substacks years ago and I just plodded along reading their posts and enjoying the platform but never jumping in. Maybe I was afraid of the commitment, maybe it was performance anxiety, maybe I decided with so many writers adding brilliant and encouraging content to the world, I could sit this one out. But then last week I realized something.
I’m practically bursting with support and advice for memoir writing. I’ve got new memoirs to recommend, writing prompts, answers to Let’s Talk Memoir listener questions, ways memoirists can survive their self-doubt, and lots of opinions on crafting memoir.
I’ll post every few weeks or so with takeaways from my latest guests on my podcast Let’s Talk Memoir. If you have a question about memoir writing, thoughts on the genre you’d like to share, or want to connect with me about covering an aspect of memoir craft on an upcoming episode, please get in touch!
Until next time, happy writing and reading and thanks for stopping by for a few memoir moments.
Congrats on starting your Substack. I’m sure you’ll be successful however you define it!
