This episode is for the writer who isn’t quite sure what they want to write about. You know that you want to write, and you’ve collected stories and moments—but after that? You’re clueless. In today’s episode we’ll go deeper into why your memoir needs an actual topic and how to decide what that should be.

This episode is for the writer who wants to write smarter, not harder. We are continuing this conversation about how to amplify your writing time and energy, and this week I have three pillars of amplification for you to take and implement into your writing life right now. Why spend time figuring out all the things on your own, when you could learn how to work with your brain, with your support system, and with other writers like you so that you can make the most of every single writing session. All of these pillars feed wonderfully into my memoir fundamentals course, North Star. You don't have to do this alone, writer.

This episode is for the writer whose creativity is off-kilter, who has fallen out of their groove and wants to find a way to get back to what they love. I share a bit about what’s been going on behind the scenes for me and how my first writing session went after being sick for a few weeks. I also share my secret to how I outlined seven essays in less than an hour (😱) and what can expect coming out of Bookish Edits this spring!

This episode is for the writer who is looking for permission, who is unsure if they are allowed to write or even share their story. This episode is for the writer who may describe themselves as “not a good writer” or wonder if anyone would really want to read their story at all. More than anything though, this episode is for the writer who wants validation. You want to know if your story really matters.

Today’s episode is for writers who aren’t really sure what their memoir is supposed to do. They know they want to write their stories, but that’s as far as they’ve got. Or maybe they dived head-first into writing and now feel lost—and they don’t know way. Today’s episode will help you figure out exactly where you’re losing the thread and what you need to do to get back on track.
I mention the memoirist Jenny Lawson (she's equal parts dark and funny).

These conversations are always a delight, and the different insights that we each have into the book prove just how versatile and personal memoir is.

Let's talk Main Character Energy. This is a term prevalent in twenty-first century vernacular, but what does it actually mean and what does it have to do with the writing life? In today's episode I break down what Main Character Energy actually is and exactly how this applies to memoir writing. I come ready with examples and ways that you can apply this concept into your own writing right now.
Sign up for my FREE masterclass/workshop combo, IDENTITY, to understand these concepts even deeper and with even more application: https://bookish-edits.thrivecart.com/identity/ Your writing and who you are as a writer won't be the same (in all the best ways)✨

At the end of 2023 I had the wild idea that this year is the year I write my first memoir. While I’ve been working with memoir writers for years now and write my own essays, I hadn’t had the right spark to write my own actual memoir—and this idea is nothing I expected. In today’s episode I’m inviting you into my head as I grapple with the validity of this idea, starting from square one, and how to craft a plan moving forward. As this writing project unfolds over the next twelve months, I want to bring you into the process, so let’s get started.

Today we dismantle the idea that there's only one "right" way to write, because the truth is that your writing life is inextricably connected to your regular life. What that means for you is that 1) you don't have to stress when living your life takes prominence over writing about it and 2) everything you live in your life you can start to see as a writer. Don't forget about the Bookish Edits shop where you can explore the Bookish Edits digital library and buy discounted enrollment vouchers for my live programs and classes in 2024. I'll drop all the links you need here:
