You can now access our best memoir-writing blog articles as YouTube videos. These videos bring you the most read and the most important posts on our site’s blog archives.
A different medium
Many people learn well—and perhaps best—when accessing information both in writing and by listening. For these writers, our the Memoir Channel is an excellent learning vehicle.
Others find that using YouTube videos as a review is what works well for them. Each of us has to review material many times before we really master it. Our YouTube channel not only contains videos and the spoken word but also contains links to the print article. Now that’s an opportunity to review material many times.
Still others listen to posts of YouTube as their primary source of information as they do mindless chores at home or while driving. It’s part of their Automobile University curriculum—and it can be part of yours, too!
What we have included so far
In this “YouTube Videos” category, we include a number of our best blog articles—that is, the most read. (As far as we are concerned, all our posts are “best blog articles!”)
These videos we feature do not have an organizing theme other than they are among the most read and the most important to helping people. It’s reasonable to presume, moreover, that you, as our other readers, will find these YouTube videos very useful.
In conclusion
Once you are on YouTube, please “like” the post. This will give both the post and the YouTube Memoir Channel ranking. This ranking will lead to more people viewing the posts as YouTube moves them up in its listing.
