Provided structure for memoir drafts: 1. Open with a lead. Try Dialogue 2. Tell the story. Remember: Use 1st person POV, (I) This is a story about you and your experience. Don't forget setting. Use imagery: appeal to the 5 senses. Slow it down, letting the story unfold. 1 incident will keep your topic in control. 3. Reflect on what you learned from this experience. Note: Reflection and feelings/reactions can be woven into the piece as well. HW: Work on memoir some more if you got a slow start with your writing. Also, read chapter 14 in Warriors Don't Cry.
