I'm so glad you stumbled on my site! Which blog does your sister-in-law write? I love love all your book ideas. We could probably talk for hours to outline all your ideas into chapters. That is my favorite thing to do! And a tough one for people, too - you are not alone. So let's try a little exercise here that I normally do in my consultations. Maybe I'll start a new blog post for it. OK, first things first: prioritize. Name the story that feels most urgent to tell FIRST. Tell me a bit about it and why it's important to you. You only get one to start with. :) -k. Melissa! I’m so glad you stumbled on my site! Which blog does your sister-in-law write?

I have a million different book ideas right now. Do you have examples of chapters? I want to do one for each of my children and give it to them on their 16th or 18th or somthing like that. I also want to do a "Me" book kinda as my personal history. And am really wanting to do a couples book for my parents anniversary. Shoot and ones for my mom in law. Chapter ideas would help so much because besides knowing I want to make books I don't know where to start with how to organize the memories. P.S. I totally found you on flickr and wrote you a note thinking you WERE my sis in law because I searched her blog name and you had a pic of her blog banner on there I think. hahaha! Sorry. I'm so so so happy I made that mistake though, I LOVE your books! Good tips! I have a million different book ideas right now. Do you have examples of chapters?

And I know from experience how overwhelming the project can seem! With all of my grandfather's war letter I wasn't sure where to start. For my mom and I the best thing was to pick out our chapters--it totally helps to organize your photos and memorabilia in a way that is meaningful to the story you want to tell.
