I'm a little perturbed by the lack of interest in memoirs these days, even here on AW. I love a good novel--some sci-fi or a good mystery. But I like a true story, especially if it's stranger than fiction.
Is this James Frey syndrome? Do people immediately assume that all memoirs are exaggerated or made up? (I know he wasn't the only one)
If you go back in the memoir part of SYW a few pages, there were hundreds of views and dozens of responses to posted work, but now not so much.
Am I writing in a dead genre?
