Synopsis

If writing a memoir sounds daunting, there is a very simple reason why: You haven’t yet learned how.

In this groundbreaking book, author Wendy Dale throws out the advice, “Just write” and “Write a crappy first draft,” and instead teaches you a seven-step process for constructing your memoir from the ground up.

She compares writing a book to mastering an instrument, learning to knit, or even building a motor — all of these tasks rely on principles that create a desired result. Learn the principles and they work every time.

Instead of writing by trial and error, follow a step-by-step plan to engineer your memoir. You’ll have fun completing a great book and you’ll do it in a fraction of the time it takes everyone else.
