Format: OverDrive OverDrive Read. HTML:<p>A clear, engaging and practical 'how-to' guide to writing a memoir, by Australia's foremost teacher and practitioner of memoir and life writing, Patti Miller.</p> <p>We all have a story to tell - whether it is a story of a migrant childhood, a difficult past, adopting a child, riding a bike across India, or simply a contemplative year in a garden. With these stories we make sense of ourselves and the world around us.</p> <p>Memoir - writing about an aspect of a life rather than a whole life - expresses and shapes these stories within us so that the writing becomes more than a record, it becomes a creative journey.</p> <p>Drawing on Patti's extensive teaching and writing experience, and using examples and exercises, <i>The Memoir Book</i> provides invaluable insight on how to find your topic, develop narrative voice, find a balance between factual truth and vivid story-telling, explore creative ways of structuring memories, and helps identify the best form for your writing - whether it be literary memoir, narrative non-fiction, sojourn and travel writing, or even the personal essay.</p> <p>Written in Patti's warm, clear and conversational style, this book is an essential guide for anyone who wants to write memoir or extend the possibilities of autobiography and non-fiction. <i>The Memoir Book</i>, a companion volume to her highly successful guide <i>Writing Your Life</i>, provides inspiration and practical advice for both new and experienced writers exploring the popular genre of memoir.</p>.
