Yet another ...

Quote of the day:

“Listen, Mom,” I said. “I have to apologize. I think I was too hard on you in my memoir.”

“You think?” she repeated. The tone was sarcastic, but she was smiling. Her eyes confirmed she was kidding.

“Writers embellish,” she said. She tossed a manicured hand upward, as if to fling my apology away. “That’s what I told the crowd here. She had to have conflict, drama. What kind of an author would my daughter be, I told them, if it was blah. No fights.” Elaine Soloway

One day, maybe, I will be able to write like this. A person can dream.

Yes indeed, I feel it getting closer and closer ... my memoir.

I have the title already ...

I have the need all ready ...

Now I need ... the nerve ...

Suggestion, do you have a copy of Natalie Goldberg's - "Old Friend from Far Away". Eighteen months ago it was suggested to me by my therapist as a means of accessing memories. Found it really useful.
