I see on your notes that The Shawshank Redemption is one of your favourite films - mine too.If you are writing a memoir about your Inn I wonder if you have heard of the book Crestmont by Holly Weiss. She has written a historical memoir about that hotel that reas like a novel. It might be worth a look if you are borrowing techniques from fiction. Best of luck with your re-writes.Deborah Swifthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10594174632573628818noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2829720626383125595.post-49009471684161013322011-03-08T07:16:33.659-05:002011-03-08T07:16:33.659-05:00Kathy, thanks so much for your supportive comment....Kathy, thanks so much for your supportive comment. So what are you writing now in the way of large works? Have you thought about memoir? <br /><br />So far, the rewrite is going well. I have two Beta readers who are really helpful. As long as I can keep a regular schedule and get something done every, I feel good about it. I think I finally caught on to how to unleash my own unique "voice" onto the pages.Nancy Hinchliffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12720207101341835900noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2829720626383125595.post-55544334826652246222011-03-07T22:49:07.892-05:002011-03-07T22:49:07.892-05:00I, too, am a writer of non-fiction - mostly essays...I, too, am a writer of non-fiction - mostly essays. I even began a non-fiction novel a few months back and haven't made much progress for the very reason(s) you mention here. <br /><br />I once read an interview with Truman Capote after In Cold Blood was a best seller for many weeks. He said that there was as much, if not more, work involved with non-fiction, because the reader is expecting factual accuracy. (sigh) <br /><br />My heart goes out to you, Nancy.
