“What to write about in a memoir?” is a basic question. The right answer will keep you writing and the wrong may lead you to believe that writing a memoir is too hard and not for you.
Write about something important to you
My answer to what to write about in a memoir is always to write about something important to you—not what you think is important to others.

My memoir will be about my life with Ataxia – a degenerative nerve disorder.
I would appreciate suggestions on how to approach the subject to make it interesting. I have several ideas but I’m interested in what others think.
