Post #7 – Women’s Memoirs, Writing Prompts – Kendra Bonnett and Matilda Butler
I find it very interesting that the more authors Matilda and I talk with and the more guest blogs we post here, the more variety of experience we discover. As this week’s guest, Karen Walker, writes, “There is no right or wrong way to write a memoir.” I think you’ll find Karen’s 10-year effort to learn her craft and publish her story is interesting. I hope you’ll also be inspired by her perseverance and commitment. And I have a question for you: What’s your golden thread? You’ll have to read Karen’s blog to understand.
As many of you know by now, this guest blog is our way of introducing you to a memoirist and her work. It’s also the first phase of a four-part process that will include an interview with the author, which you’re invited to listen to live, a posting of that interview and, finally, a review of the book.
Read her guest blog below. Then take some time to write a Comment. Actually, write a question for Karen because this is your opportunity to interview her. Matilda and I will ask the question in your behalf when we interview Karen on July 22nd (details below). [click to continue…]
