It hones in on the three key measures necessary for aspiring authors to conceptualize, sell, and market their memoirs. Written especially for those who don't happen to be celebrities, You Should Really Write a Book reveals why and how so many relatively unknown memoirists are making a name for themselves.

Full of current examples and in-depth analysis, this guide explains what sells and why, teaches writers to think like publishers, and offers guidance on dealing with complicated emotions-essential tools for maximizing memoir success.
