Ten Writing Prompts Through a Tapestry of Memories
These ten writing prompts are designed to guide you in curating your memories. More than a recounting of events of your journey, the prompts will enlighten you about the themes that have shaped your life’s story.
Identifying themes is crucial in structuring the narrative of a memoir. Themes are frameworks that will help weave individual memories into a cohesive story. Authors write their stories around themes so readers will be able to access the memoir’s insights and experiences intimately. Moreover, life themes such as ‘love’ ‘adversity’ and ‘resilience’ can leave readers emotionally and psychologically invested, paving a way for personal reflection.
