Memoirs

Tomorrow, Saturday, Mar. 6th, I give a program at the Daniel Boone Regional Library, at 10:30 a.m. on "Get Started Writing Your Memoirs." Come if you can. I've worked on my own memoirs off and on for the last 8 years. First, I did a 50,000 word first draft, still unfinished, of my first 29 years. Twenty-nine vignettes over 29 years. Even though a single memoir has not been finished, two books of poetry have mostly come out of that first effort and numerous published essays and single poems have. So, you don't have to ever finish, if you have a well you can continue going back to!
