THE ART OF MEMOIR Kerry Kriseman Shares Holiday Memory Ideas & Gifts

Season 2, Episode 247,   Nov 20, 03:52 PM

Accidental First Lady author Kerry Kriseman consults on memoir writing, helps authors market their books and teaches workshops. Nanette Wiser caught up with her before the holidays to chat about how to share and make new memories, perhaps craft a holiday gift with a simple cookbook (recipes with a little story) or a family memory album (Shutterfly) that can inspire family to talk about their memories, and get to know each other again across the miles and smiles of the holiday table. Kerry also talked to the USF St. Pete campus newspaper staff (The Crow) about how good interview questions and researching people's histories can transform a good article into a great one! Kerry has been busy this fall, and appeared at the St. Pete Beach Library Author Showcase and the  Louisville Book Festival. "I enjoyed serving on a panel with 4 memoirists, met Hank the Horse, and enjoyed chatting with authors and readers. I love talking memoir, and the panel format allowed each of us to share our varied paths to memoir, what inspired us to write, and how we navigated the emotions and often-winding path to publication.
