A piece of inspiration here to plow through and keep on writing! I hate to hear writers say they quit a writing project because they didn't know where the piece was going. It's all the more reason to NOT stop. Memoir writing is a perfect example of practicing the religion of uncertainty. It's because of uncertainty that fuels the story to keep writing, to peel away the layers, to dig deep regardless of where the writing ambles. Eventually, a polished gem shines!
