4 reviews for Start Your Memoir Right

  1. Mary Anne Benedetto

    The book is a valuable resource for life story writers whether they intend to publish or only share with family,

  2. Justine Kuntz

    …provides a kick-start for those toying with the idea of writing a memoir but who need “actions steps.” The book is a great companion for Ledoux’s Turning Memories Into Memoirs..a good first read.

  3. JPE

    Mr. Ledoux’s style is warm and approachable. Although I have never talked with him personally, reading this book made me feel that we were conversing together by the fireplace. (This occurred even as I read the Kindle edition, something with which I am not completely comfortable.) This book helped me to break down memoir writing into manageable portions and freed me from remaining paralyzed under unrealistic expectations. The action steps were clearly written and encouraging. The book is short and concise, yet full of good ideas and new approaches.

  4. D.M. Verbov

    A great book…This guy knows exactly what I’m feeling and thinking!
