My memoir is about my emotional life experience, it was a difficult thing to talk about and writing was also another thing for me. I did not know how to express my thoughts or emotions through memoir writing. But after the following readings and classes drilled Narrative Project, What is Creative Nonfiction? (Lee Gutkind), Making Scenes in Memoir (Lee Martin) and My Name is Margaret (Maya Angelou) Also Composing a Present Scene with Dialogue and Symbolism, Composing a Past Scene. I must admit that the English 100 class have thought me a lot when it comes to writing to make meaning and the process of writing. I am hopeful that at the end of the class, I will be able to writing a complete Narrative Project.
With the many emotional experiences I have had in my life, the decision of which one to write on was also a difficult one for me, knowing that all are so important. However, I selected my child hood torture by my step mother. Because it remain the most memorable and emotional period in my life.
I’ll be submitting two or more drafts of my memoir to the instructor and the class for review, I am open to doing as much as possible for clarity and the purposes of making meaning.
