    Hi Patti -

    I've been doing a bit of research on memoir writing for my cousin. I figured I'd share some of my finds with my blogging friends. :)

    Blessings,
    Susan

    Both of your posts were very helpful. I like the part in Kathy's about not including jokes or phrases that only your famaily would get, and I love William's idea about writing small. I love the whole way he shows just what is important.

    And Susan, this is a happy day for me. The trick you gave me of doing tools and view compatability worked. I am truly excited. Have a great day.

    Hi Kristen -

    I love reading memoirs and biographies, especially when they have a great take away for the reader. :)

    Blessings,
    Susan

    Hi Nancy -

    Woohoo! I'm so glad the Tools/Compatibility View worked for you. I probably should include that in a separate post for others having the same problem.

    I'm glad the articles were helpful. There are some wonderful resources on the Internet.

    Blessings,
    Susan :)
