Turning Yourself Into a Character

For this last quarter of the year, I’m focusing these Memoir Minutes on creative considerations and devices that novelists and writers of fiction are familiar with.
Two words for today: character development.
Yup, this is pretty damn important.
Especially considering that you’re not just the narrator of your own story but a key player in it as well.
You’re both the current you sharing from your wisdom of today and the prior you who experienced the thing you’re now writing about.
Given a memoir is a 360-degree view on an aspect or period of your life, how you come across on the page as the protagonist is a pretty big deal.
The other players in your life’s drama are also important and how you write them in is also important.
