In this expert from my Writers’ Room interview with Merryl Tengesdal (which is actually S2E2), she shares her lessons learned from pressing to get her memoir published on a tight timeline driven by her appearance on the reality TV series, Tough as Nails, and she tells all of you out there who are on the fence about writing your memoirs to Just Do It!
