copyright Taylor and Francis, Group, LLC., published
"Stories Behind Life Stories: Musings of a Memoirist," by Mary O'Brien

observed during 15 years of assisting more than 250 elders (from all over
the country and even into Canada) with writing and publishing their life
stories in hardcover books that are distributed at a family book-signing
party. Subtopics within the paper include: resolution, family dynamics,
gender differences, joint memoirs, book distribution, risks, and
conclusion.
Copies of the article can be purchased from Taylor and Francis.
