In 7 Writing Prompts for Memoir and Family History
Thank you so much for the 7 writing prompts. I'm the family genealogist and my son wants to do a story for NaNoWriMo. We'll each write a story to end on November 30th. Oh boy! Your prompts will definitely help.
In 7 Writing Prompts for Memoir and Family History

The only one I had read was Looking for Alibrandi, but I would love to have seen Peach Season by Debra Oswald performed on stage. (If anyone else would like to see Adele's chain you can find it over on her blog: https://adeleboundinbooks.blog/2025/10/05/6-degrees-of-separation-2025-october-4/).
