""Lita Kurth knows how to open up the mind's eye. Over and over, the prompts in Writing Memoir in Flashes jolted me into seeing what I hadn't even known was there."" -Stewart O'Nan, author of A Prayer for the Dying and Last Night at the Lobster ""Whether you aim to write memoir for personal growth, family legacy, or publication, Lita Kurth's Writing Memoir in Flashes can help. Prepare to be encouraged by her inspiring, often funny, sometimes poignant suggestions and prompts. What sets this book apart and makes it refreshing are the samples, not from the usual voices, but of everyday writers, many of them students. If these non-experts can write such beautiful pieces, so can you."" -Nita Sweeney, bestselling author of Depression Hates a Moving Target
