Success Stories

Memoirs Ink wants to announce and congratulate Abby Sher, one of our previous contest winners for the release and success of her novel, Amen, Amen, Amen: Memoir of a Girl who Couldn't Stop Praying (Among Other Things).

We also mentioned Melissa Petro, in last month's newsletter, but will do it again here. A version of her winning story, Mexico, has been published in the anthology Hos, Hookers, Call Girls, and Rent Boys: Professionals Writing on Life, Love, Money, and Sex.

We love to hear about the success of our previous winners, students and clients. Please keep us up to date on your successes or interesting flops. Feel free to send us review copies and if we like it, we'll review it.

Oh dear. I just realized that I juxtaposed a book about praying too much and hookers. I think that is perhaps a great statement about how wide and varied the genre if memoir is-- and why we like it so much.
