Do You Have a Story to Tell? Share Your Wisdom in a Memoir

The urge to leave

the house. And because personal reflection is a natural occurrence with age, writing a memoir can be the perfect way to spend your time. As you gain enough distance from life events to grow useful perspectives, the stage is set for self-discovery and transformation. Even more so, your life experiences can give valuable insights to readers of all ages and circumstances. That’s why biographies and memoirs are such popular genres — reading about real people helps others understand the world and how they can live in it. To get started, pick a theme. Ask yourself these questions, “What message do I want to leave with my readers? What do I want them to feel or understand by reading my words?” From there, select anecdotes that support your theme. Make sure they’re clear and cohesive. Then, write like you would a fictional novel or story. Show, don’t tell, and keep readers invested by having a narrative arc, whether it flows chronologically or jumps back and forth in time. Remember, this is not a time to air dirty laundry; it’s a time to reflect, grow, and share your experiences with the world.

behind a legacy is an inherent

human instinct. Whether you

accomplish this by raising children, building

a successful company,

or starting a charitable organization, the desire to share your wisdom should not go unfulfilled. If none of these options work for your

lifestyle, writing a memoir may be a good option. A memoir not only tells your story but

also passes on the wisdom you’ve gained from your many experiences and offers a unique perspective to inspire future generations.

Writing can be a therapeutic exercise at a time when your life may be changing due to retirement or your kids growing up and leaving
