Episode 5: More on Memoir - The Art of Semi-Fiction

In which Robynne and Jane head back to the super-popular topic of Memoir to pick up where they left off in Episode 3. Only this time, they balance the discussion by establishing that Memoir isn’t just a platform for dark, difficult topics. Laughter is a perfect ingredient in modern personal narrative! We talk about a number of works-in-progress and published works which use humor or address lighter topics.

Favs like James Herriott pop into the conversation, and we also talk about Kate Flanders’ “The Year of Less” and Marie Kondo “Spark Joy” as great examples of the lighter side of Memoir. Dear friends Michelle Cushatt and Kathi Lipp also make their way into the conversation with the way they open their hearts and lives through their Communicator Academy podcasts and Kathi’s Clutter Free books. This is a conversation worth joining us for!
