Hi Wendy,

Thanks for your comment. I appreciate your interest. I actually have paused writing it for reasons not related to writing the memoir itself but more as a result of the pandemic and my general mood. My immediate priorities as an entrepreneur are more driven towards adapting to the new reality and what’s ahead for me in the future.

That being said, I do have the intent to publish my memoir in a book format one day! On the contrary, I don’t find I am even close to saying all I have to say. It’s more I can’t remember it all or I have to spend more time digging through how I want to structure my story given the many interesting events I have experienced in my life. Memoir is a very unique craft given it is non-fiction but adopts the storytelling technique of fiction. I find it is a challenge to get through it sometimes. It’s not so much the emotional roadblocks as much as trying to get the craft down. As a business person, it is a complete shift of gears. Writing on Medium is short and sweet but that’s a long project!

Indeed it’s a change of pace for all of us but I’d definitely say the pandemic is a challenge to deal with overall. I am finding that I have to change up some of the tasks I am working on to flow better. I hope to pick up my memoir writing again soon.

Hope you are well and safe. I hope I answered all your questions.

Kind regards,

Natasha.
