I am in the process of writing a memoir lately. I will be publishing it via an indie publisher as soon as it's finished. The only thing is, I am having a hard time coming up w/a title for it. I have been through quite a few ideas, but nothing that really seems fitting. To me, a title should get to the heart of what something is about, whenever possible. I have read and watched many biographies/memoir based things in my life, on several different people. Some titles were better than others at achieving the aforementioned goal.

Fave books

Hey everyone! If you’re looking for a good read, I thought I would put together a list of the best books I’ve read 1. The Alchemist - definitely my favourite book ever. Inspiring in a beautiful way and encourages the reader to follow their personal legend.  2. The messenger - once again an inspiring book as you watch a poker playing cab driver learn his role in helping others. Given it was set in Australia, really close to home 3. One of us is lying - predictable but funny book about the death of a student 5 minutes into detention 4. The gone series - definitely my fave series. Follows what would happen if adults disappeared in an apocalyptic world 5. Turtles all the way down -...
