The Best Review of this Blog I've Seen!

We bloggers sometimes get the feeling that no one is reading what we write (hint: leave more comments). Today, I happened upon this review from "The Senior Surfer" (http://theseniorsurfer.blogspot.com/), a blog I'd not heard of. There's nothing like a good review or a kind comment to brighten a cold winter day in Chicago!

If You Ever Wanted To Write Your Life...

"Have you always wanted to write a memoir but never quite gotten around to actually starting the darn thing? If one of your New Year's resolutions is to get that memoir out of your head and onto paper, you might want to turn to
Write Your Life, an inspirational blog that just might give you the guidance you need to finally churn out your life's story. Created by senior blogger Marlys Marshall Styne, also a retired English professor and memoirist, Write Your Life is filled with the kind of useful tips and exercises designed to liberate the writer within you. For example, if you're "stuck" creatively or not sure exactly how to start writing about your life, Marlys suggests ten journal assignments to get you going in the right direction.A copy of Strunk and White's The Elements of Style on your desk and Write Your Life on your desktop might be all you need to get that memoir written in 2008! Best of luck!"
