…Journey
This post is one of 26 I am writing for the A-Z Challenge on the subject of writing a memoir. I’m not an expert in writing memoirs, but I’m exploring the topic with thoughts about writing one, and am happy to share the fruits of my exploration.

I love this song, which is about the difficult journeys the Jews of Ethiopia undertook to reach Israel in the 1980s and ’90s.
Writing any book is a journey. Writing a memoir is a journey that’s likely to be full of emotion. As you travel through the episodes that make up the memoir, you discover and confront truths you hadn’t grasped before. You have to be prepared for the journey to change you.
Note: I love to read your comments, especially when they’re attached to the right post. Please remember the Comments button is at the top of this post.

Life is a journey, so I guess it makes sense that writing about it would be one too.

Rhonda has said what I was going to say. Our whole life is a journey,or maybe a series of journeys.
This thing we call life is such an interesting journey all its own, I’m not sure I could imagine retracing the steps to basically “relive it” for a memoir. I commend those who do.
Yes, life is a journey, and writing a memoir can be an important part of that journey as well as a journey in itself.
Life is a journey with a lot of repetition, but I don’t want to repeat myself so I won’t reply to each comment this time. Thanks, everyone 🙂
