The Memoir Roundtable

The Memoir Roundtable is a group of six authors (from top left, clockwise): graphic novel creator Natasha Peterson, quilter Linda Pool, memoir workshop and retreat leader Joanne Lozar Glenn, children's literacy consultant Nadine James, memoir teacher and scrapper Katherine Nutt, and food editor and memoir writing teacher Dianne Hennessy King.

While sharing stories at Natasha's table one Sunday afternoon, we realized that each of us was creating memoirs in interesting and unconventional forms--cookbooks, scrapbooks, quilts, and more--forms that haven't traditionally been considered "memoir." It was an "aha" moment.

Memoir wasn't just for writers. Memoir could be for everyone. And so we wrote this book.

Now there's a guide to quickly and easily creating YOUR memoir YOUR way, using skills you already have or would like to try, in forms you've never thought of before. We hope you find it inspiring!
