  2. What is a memoir?

  3. A memoir… • Autobiographical writing • Captures certain highlights or meaningful moments in one’s past • Contemplation of the meaning of that event at the time of the writing of the memoir • Much more emotional and connects the writer to someone or something that had and impact on their life

  4. Memoir Leads • Descriptive memoir ‘sets’ the scene by painting a picture in the reader’s mind. • Suspense leads create curiosity in the reader’s mind and leave them wondering what will happen next. • Question leads immediately draw the reader into the memoir, inviting the reader to ponder the events that lie ahead. • Conflict leads present the central conflict to the reader for immediate consideration.

  5. How will you invite the reader into your memoir?
