Christian author Debra Gaskill gives practical advice about writing a memoir as she shares with host A.J. Swift from Swift Publishing.

Can your painful experiences become a powerful memoir that helps others? Everybody has a sad story, but author Debra Gaskill explains why a memoir must be more than a cathartic rant about what they've gone through. It must share valuable life lessons, help readers avoid the mistakes you made, and reveal the redemptive outcome of your journey. 

What about the legal ramifications of including others in your story? What is your responsibility as a writer if someone challenges the validity of your story? We cover it all!

You can start writing while healing, but wait until you’ve healed to finish your book so your story reflects wisdom, growth, and redemption rather than  pain and bitterness. And if the topic is heavy, be sure to inject a little humor along the way!
