What to Do After Spilling Your Guts in a Memoir

The ending starts a new beginning

Feb 26, 2024

Book cover from author’s book, “My Stroke in the Fast Lane: A Journey to Recovery.” The author (left) is driving with her mother in hat and red floating scarf (right) in a car running over the green hills with trees. They are about to crash. Mother’s extended arm says it all: “STOP THIS CAR!! HELP! MY DAUGHTER HAD A STROKE!” Sunshine in the distance indicates that it’s a long journey. This profoundly moving memoir is about the author’s recovery and what she calls her “magnificent life.”
