As I was reading your list of craft suggestions, Charlie, I was thinking about the memoir “She’s Not There” by Jennifer Finney Boylan. I use it to teach personal narratives to teenagers: if you haven’t read it, it’s such a good example of some of what you named here and great humor writing, too!
I am very proud of the fact that I have not been sitting on the goldmine of Bleecker Bombs and have listened to every single episode and I am so excited about this official transition to Memoir Snob! Apparently not knowing when you'll decide to stop reading memoirs and go back to Bleecker Bombs was causing me anxiety because when I read about Memoir Snob I just took a huge deep breath! hahah. Now I know it's not going anywhere anytime soon. Thanks for doing what you do Charlie. I have recommended the podcast to so many friends!
Hahaha Libby! Thank you so much for listening. When I told Sam he was like, I still want to do the podcast! Which of course he can, whenever we decide to, it just won't be as often.
Love this update! And really like the new name “Memoir Snob” - so cool, I’m super pumped about the recaps of the podcasts too. I re-listen to them a lot to remember the take-aways!
It’s of great importance that you pin pointed and gave an elaborate detailed description of your memoir.All I see is that they are always of good reference of what has happened to one at a time or another.Also,an idea or clue privilege for future reference.Waiting to see more!
Charlie, thanks for taking the time to lay it out there for folks like me - who weren't paying attention. I look forward to your podcasts and learning from them! And more importantly I look forward to your memoir.
You're welcome! GREAT picture with your peeps that was on Steven's post today. What a great lifelong group. The fabric of your lives together will get more colorful and richer over the years through your investment of time and yourselves in each others. It's a treasure. Don't let go, even as life pulls you in different directions.

Alissa, someone just recommended that book to me this same week! Adding it to my list, thanks so much.

Memoir Snob 😂
"Crying laughing face" must mean it's right.

Thanks, Emma! Everything else I came up with felt too nice. This was like, kind of provocative, kind of an asshole, kind of exactly right.

Thank you as always for your support, Olufunmi!
I laughed so hard on your review of a review. Solid gold 🥇
Lol I'm so glad, Elizabeth. I was just a tad fired up.

James, thank you as always for writing a comment that makes my day.

A great sentiment, James. It takes a lot of work to maintain friendships, especially when you’re not in the same vicinity.
