How to find time to write a memoir
Don’t worry about that. First of all, there are no rules for writing a memoir, so the memoir police won’t be knocking at your door. Also bear in mind that most memoirs are only read by family and friends, and they will love your book.
You don’t have to be world famous to write a memoir –family famous is more than enough. You’ll be amazed at how much praise you will get.
But ok... it does take some time. And that’s why writing a photo memoir is a great idea. Even if you do have a busy schedule, then you can easily find time for writing a memoir, especially a photo memoir. It practically writes itself and will take much less time that you think. And it’s fun. When you’re having fun, time flies.
Like many projects the trick, or hack as many people say these days, to overcome memoir writers' block is to take action. You need to get an action habit going. The other memoir hack is to plan short sessions, say 15 minute sessions. Then you will probably do 30 minutes and that’s perfect.15 to 30 minutes a week and you will soon have enough material for a photo memoir. Here are some useful tips for making an action habit and finding time to write a memoir.
Use the Jigsaw method to write a memoir
Writing a memoir is a bit the same as making a jigsaw puzzle. So do it in the same way. Dedicate a table in the house and make that your memoir table for a few weeks. Do short sessions and soon you will make great progress and be eager to complete the work and see the end result. Also friends and family will probably join in and encourage you to keep going! They will want to see the finished result too.
Memoir cruise method
Try to find 15 to 30 minutes a day on a cruise and record the story of two or three photos a day. That will really get your photo memoir off to a fabulous start. Don’t let the wind blow your photos away though. Keep them safe or bring copies!

Just do your best and always remember that a photo memoir is for family, friends and maybe a few local historians. For them it will be one of the best books they’ve ever read. Think of writing and publishing a memoir as something that we all can do, just like we can all publish a webpage or a social media account.
