Episode 305: WTF #5 | WTF Do You Do to Write a Memoir? (with Molly Roden Winter)

Alli and Abby are BACK for the fifth installment of SSR: WriTing Friends, this time for a conversation with memoirist Molly Roden Winter about the personal, vulnerable, intimate experience of putting one's own story on paper for public consumption. They put their heads together to consider the similarities and differences between writing fiction and writing memoir and tackle some specific aspects of the former: the nature of memory, the ethics of reviewing memoirs, how to edit your personal experience, reading your old journals, having hard conversations, and what we can learn from someone else's story.Molly's New York Times bestselling debut memoir—More: A Memoir of Open Marriage—is available wherever books are sold.
