Interesting collection of essays about writing memoir, which came about from a 2007 U of Minnesota conference called 'Who's Got the Story--Memoir as History/History as Memoir' (you can see video of the panel discussions there). Includes essays by Patricia Hampl, Carlos Eire, D.J. Waldie, and many more. I imagine I'll return to this...
