2025/09/05

This episode is for the writer who wants to make sure that the reader will be on her side and know what she’s thinking and what she’s experiencing.

80: 4 Things I Had Wrong about Memoir

The Memoir Method Podcast ·

2025/08/01

This episode is for the writer who has had to refine what they think memoir is. We’ve been sold a specific concept of memoir through publishing, and you’ve likely gone into the process with certain beliefs and ideas about the genre and the writing process. And then, to no one’s surprise, the experience of writing is so much different from what you had thought it would be. In today’s episode I’m going into four things that I had wrong about memoir and how reframing my beliefs about writing and the

This episode is for the writer who thinks (or used to think) that self-publishing is, for whatever reason, less than traditional publishing. When you think of self-published books you think of Comic Sans, cheesy covers, and awkward marketing. You’ve been taught to consider self-published as lower quality, that traditional publishing equates to “good writing.” In this episode I want to debunk the skepticism around self-publishing and invite you into a new way of seeing your memoir within the
