David Henry Sterry presents The Art of the Memoir: Writing, Reading & Selling Your Life Story
Find out what it takes to write, read and sell your life story from writers who have done just that. Listen as memoirists read from their own work, then discuss the process of writing a memoir. Making a narrative of events of your own life, dealing with issues of privacy and family, figuring out how to navigate the stormy seas of the publishing world, and bringing your story to life as you read it before an audience will be among the topics addressed by this panel of memoirists, a book doctor who has helped dozens of first time authors get published, and the author of Putting Your Passion Into Print, the definitive book on how to get published. This will be followed by a Q&A session.
David Henry Sterry (author of his own memoir, Master of Ceremonies: A True Story of Sex, Drugs, Roller Skates & Chippendales) will be leading this discussion and will be joined by fellow memoirists, including Chelsea Handler, author of Are You There, Vodka? It's Me, Chelsea.
