""Victoria Twead opens a window into the world of a bestselling author and shares the insider secrets that helped her get there. How to Write a Bestselling Memoir is a must-read not just for memoir writers, but for any author hoping to take their book to the next level."" CJ McDaniel - CEO of Adazing Book Marketing and author of Beating the Bestseller. Fawn 5.0 out of 5 stars Reviewed in the United States on March 4 I loved all the suggestions the author makes for promoting. This book gives a lot of resources to help out first time memoir writers or writers that may have made expensive mistakes in publishing. I loved all the suggestions the author makes for promoting. This book is great for getting an idea of how to publish your memoir - giving more options to publish than going through a publisher. I had no idea all the different ways available to publish. Joybell 5.0 out of 5 stars How to Write a Bestselling Memoir Reviewed in the UK on October 13 I had already read 3 of Victoria Twead's books in the ""Two Old Fools"" series (adored them and eagerly awaiting the 4th in the series). It whetted my appetite to find out more about possibly writing my memoirs. Having kept notes for several years with the intention of ""one day I will write . . ."", it was too good an opportunity to pass up on reading ""How to write a bestselling memoir"". What a superb self-help book with great ideas for guidance, practical information to help a person make informed choices and pitfalls to avoid and why to avoid them. Highly recommend this book - I was delighted to have purchased it and have already recommended it to 3 more people.

She is also the creator of the charming Sixpenny Cross cosy mysteries, the darker, twist-filled Dead of Night crime series, and the delightful illustrated Mrs Arden children's books. Victoria and Joe finally retired to Australia to watch their new grandchildren thrive amongst kangaroos and koalas.
