Writing a memoir or a memoir-like story or blog can seem daunting. But remember,
you are the protagonist in your own memoir, the tour guide. You must find a narrative trajectory, a theme, for the story you want to tell and never relinquish control.
You don’t have to rummage around in your past — or your family’s past — to find episodes that you think are “important” enough to be worthy of including in your memoir. Look for small self-contained incidents that are still vivid in your memory. If you still remember them it’s because they contain a universal truth that your readers will recognize from their own life.
(Paraphrased from how to write a Memoir by William Zinser)
Enjoy!
