I need to make a title and a topic for a memoir. I don't recall any events happening in my life that would be good for one. What are some good writing prompts for memoirs? (Since Google is bloody useless, at the moment.)
Was there something/someone that you read/saw/met that made you feel something deeply and forever changed your way of thinking? What was this feeling and can you elaborate on how it has affected your life? Possible answers include a quote, a motto, a book, a movie, a stranger that has made an impact on your life, etc. Is there anything you do that you feel like was developed by an earlier event? Possible answers include childhood events, dreams, etc. How do you percieve youself? What image do you want others to perceive of you? What image do you think others REALLY perceive of you? Do you think that people struggle to hold on to an image that they created for themselves? Do you think this is true for you? Why or why not? Has there been a time where you were deeply affected by a stranger? What happened? How does this continue to affect you and the way you live your life? What do you wish your younger self knew, whether it be one year, five years, or ten years ago? If your younger self knew these things, how do you think you would be today? What is the strongest emotion you have ever felt, and what was the situation? Hope this helps. Best, Oligarchy.
