No, no - I'm not drunk. Well, on meds for a migraine but that's not usually that dehabilitating... usually.
I was just wondering exactly what qualifies as "good material", for lack of a better word, for a memoir. I mean, everyone's had interesting lives - I can't think of anyone I know who hasn't had to deal with some sort of trauma or ordeal that's affected them.
The reason I'm tossing this out is that once again my inner muse is poking me with a sharp stick to write about my time as a member/leader of the Guardian Angels (yes, those guys with the red berets). It was only two years, but... it was an interesting adventure for me.
I just don't know if anyone else would care. I mean, what's worse than writing something to find out no one's interested in it? Other than the obvious part about recording for history and family, etc etc etc...
your thoughts?
please and thank you!
(and apologies for the confusing language. Need more meds.)
