6. Setting Up Your Diary With Memoirs In Mind
If writing a memoir sometime in the future is high on your To-Do list, your daily diary is a perfect way to start laying the groundwork. With guidance, your daily posts can commence infusing story-telling structure today.

"How is that possible?" you ask. "When you have no idea what to write about?"

Simple. Set a major goal in your life. Next, post in your diary about daily efforts to achieve it, along with any life-lessons-learned in the process. Progress achieving your #1 objective gives forward movement to your story.

What you end up with falling into place is the skeleton of a story in the Hero's Journey genre, capturing your journey without knowing how it ends. The lessons-learned gives you your theme.

This is the story behind My Hero Diaries.

If you are interested in assistance transcribing your Hero Journey moments and lessons-learned into an engaging plot and theme for your eventual memoir ... your enduring legacy ... visit:
