55: Why Readers Don't Want to Read Your Memoir

The Memoir Method Podcast

This episode is for the writer who has received some lackluster feedback. Maybe she’s already invested in an editor, but they didn’t tell her how to fix any of the manuscript’s problems. This episode is all about the importance of developing an author’s perspective and how that will translate into the work you do in revisions. Let’s get into it.

So, after I recorded this episode I actually changed the title to our next mini masterclass! Memoir vs. Autobiography is now Thinking Like an Author: The Mindset Shift to Unlock Your Memoir. It's this mentality that is really what I want to get into with you (and this includes differentiating between memoir and autobiography!).

Enroll in Thinking Like an Author for just $37.

(Or enroll in all four mini masterclasses here.)

Thinking Like a Writer will be held live on Thursday, January 30, at 1:00 p.m. PST. If you can't attend live, no worries! The replay will be uploaded later that day. If you're watching this after January 30, 2024, that same link will give you instant access!
