How these memoirs are made

 






Many people ask me:

"How on earth do you write these memoirs I read everyday?"

To which I say with excitement and skepticism, "Wait, so do you read these every day?"

To which many people reply "Well, every few weeks I'll drop in, and it always seems like I missed a bunch!"




Yeah, I guess it is kind of a lot.


I used to have to just type my posts in purely from my imagination every single day, working out of my dark studio in a cold Minnesota basement. It required a lot of fortitude and imagination!

Nowadays I simply keep my stenographer with me at all times. He jots down everything I say throughout the day and night. 


The real challenge at this point is in the editing, and in the restocking of my aperol spritzes.

Post a Comment

If you were wondering, yes, you should comment. Not only does it remind me that I must write in intelligible English because someone is actually reading what I write, but it is also a pleasure for me since I am interested in anything you have to say.

I respond to pretty much every comment. It's like a free personalized blog post!

One last detail: If you are commenting on a post more than two weeks old I have to go in and approve it. It's sort of a spam protection device. Also, rarely, a comment will go to spam on its own. Give either of those a day or two and your comment will show up on the blog.
