10 Memoir Titles For 20-Somethings Who Just Can’t Even
This April, I was humbled and delighted to be given the opportunity to write and submit a collection of personal essays for publication via Thought Catalog’s Book division. Mink Choi, a book publisher for Thought Catalog, is a godsend, an amazing editor/publisher, and all around great person.
Since April, however, I have been wracking my brain with how to illustrate my life in a way that’s meaningful for readers. I don’t want to be too reflective since I’m only twenty and how much can I possible have lived, you know? And I’ve been trying to organize my thoughts and writing into such a way that makes for a good story. In doing so, I’ve convinced myself, “If I could just decide on a witty a la Jennifer-Lawrence title, I’ll have struck best-seller gold and the words will flow from my mind to my keyboard.”
So, without further ado, here are 10 of my most “thought-provoking” memoir titles for the 20-something who just can’t even.
