For years, I've had the saying "The World Needs More Love Letters" next to my desk. (See image below.)

I found this card 20 years ago, when I was struggling to write my first memoir, and I put it next to my desk, where it's remained since.

Every time I'm questioning myself, this card reminds me what I'm trying to do with my work: help and inspire.

To me, the best memoirs are love letters.

They inspire. They acknowledge our vulnerability, our gifts and our flaws, and our shared humanity.

And they light the way for someone else.

What's Your Love Letter?

What is the story you -- and only you -- can write?

And WHY do you want to write it?

In other words, what's calling you about this project?

Those two simple questions can be enough to inspire you and get you started.

If you're looking for additional support, I invite you to join us for the fall cohort of Memoir Mastery.

If you're looking for strategic memoir support, a community of writers who have your back, and mind/ body/ heart support to make the memoir-writing process safe and enjoyable, I invite you to join us for the fall cohort of Memoir Mastery.

If this calls to you, you can learn more about the Memoir Mastery program here.

Please note: Cohorts are limited to 8 writers. Once those seats fill up, registration automatically closes.

Wishing you a wonderful week!

Tanja
