A Micro Memoir Project

Micro memoir means think small.

That’s the guiding idea behind this project. Capture moments of your life in short pieces of writing. You’re not writing your life story. You’re writing about a day, an afternoon, a half hour, maybe just five minutes you don’t want to forget.

Sometimes the moment is happening right now. You think: I want to remember this.

On the next page, you’ll find prompts that invite you to remember and write. Each prompt includes a short example.
