Memoir, Biography & Autobiography, The Book of Myself, and Struggling Writers & Artists Gather Group members,
NEW BOOK ANNOUNCEMENT: I have just updated our The Book of Myself Gather Group image to reflect the ten-year anniversary revised edition of the book which was released on January 9, 2007 by Hyperion Books/Disney. The green cover with burnt-orange trim replaces the original gray cover with red trim.
Since 1997 the first edition has helped families capture life histories to pass on to future generations. Many families have written me to say how glad they are to have the stories down on paper, in personality-rich handwriting. Some have also shared what features made it especially easy to remember and write about their lives. I am pleased that Hyperion Publishing gave me the chance to draw on these comments to update the journal. In the new edition you’ll find:
- More space to write
- Elegant new interior design and “family tree” green color
- ow-to instructions for genealogy enthusiasts
- Many of the same great questions about family friends, education, work and the world in the early, middle and later phases of life
- More questions about siblings, relatives, and special relationships
- Fun new questions
I'll publish more life phase questions from the book soon, and add some of my own answers. Please send your feedback to me at Gather or to my website: www.marshallbooks.net. Thank you.
Happy memoir making,
David Marshall
