Memoir Writing — Fact vs Fiction
The Tender Land: A Family Love Story
by Kathleen Finneran
Just a quick post today… I was researching dialog writing in memoir when I ran across this article: “Lying in the Land of Memoir: Straddling the Line Between Fact and Fiction” by Kathleen Finneran on the Writer’s Store website. It was amazing!
It should be read by anyone that is writing memoir. She tackles, head on, the ever-present argument about the memory of a memoirist. When I finished reading it, I smiled. She’s eloquent yet, to the point. If you have 5 minutes, click the link to the article above and give it a read. If you write memoir, you’ll appreciate her words.






Your post was also eloquent and to the point. Worth checking out!
