If you're here, you have probably had an itch to tell your story. Your life is unique and what you've learned through your experiences feels powerful to you. We hear from authors so often who want to tell their story--but aren't sure anyone wants to read it. We hear the question all the time--is this story even worth writing?

The only one that can really answer that question is you, but there are things that may be standing in the way of finding a clear answer. Our culture has very powerful--and often harmful--concepts of "worth" that hurt our understanding of what is valuable and how we determine value.

Do you have a plan for actually finishing your memoir? If not, we know you aren’t making the progress you hoped for. That’s why we developed The Memoir Method Checklist. This free guide (and video training!) will take you through every single step you need from idea to published marketable book. Grab it now at https://pageandpodium.com/checklist
