Writing about Your Life: A Journey Into the Past by William Zinsser

3.0

A great book for those who love to write and tend to gravitate towards personal stories. Be forewarned, though: this is less of a "how-to" manual and more of a "memoir with a few guidelines on how to write memoirs". Zissner gives some writing advice, but mainly shows you how memoirs and personal stories are best crafted by sharing his own stories. Those who really want a step by step guide wouldn't gain much from this book, but I enjoyed it.
