Pen and Paper Legacies: Writing A Life Story - Help To Get Started and Finish - Softcover

Have you thought about writing your life story – or that of someone close to you, but wondered, “How do I begin?” This book is for you.Life stories contain the essence of who we are. They recount our history, share our insights and reveal what has helped mold us into who the people we have become. They recount experiences we have had, perspectives we have held and how what we have been through has given us a take on life that is uniquely ours.But too often, we don't share our stories. And if left to our own devices, those life stories may never see the light of day. If we don't share our life stories, we silence a part of our legacy.This book is an aid to getting the process of writing a life story jump-started. It takes some aspects of journal writing and morphs them with concrete ways to overcome some of what may stop people from finishing their life story.Thirty thought-provoking writing prompts are designed to spark your ideas on what to include, how to organize your material and how to meet common challenges so that you can cross the finish line. Your story is too important to you, your loved ones and generations to come, not to be told.
