Yesterday’s book mention was Love Sick, a memoir about a woman’s struggle with sexual addiction. Today I’m mentioning another book by the same author, Sue William Silverman, although I haven’t actually read the book yet. I learned from one of my email newsletters this morning that she’s just published a memoir writing guide and that she’s starting a blog tour today to promote that new book. It sounds really interesting so I figured it was worth sharing in spite of the fact that I haven’t yet read the book.

Silverman is the author of two different memoirs (Love Sick, of course and her first memoir – Because I Remember Terror, Father, I Remember You – which is about her experience of sexual abuse). Her writing, at least as far as I’ve seen so far, manages to take the beautiful language that you find in good fiction and personalize it with her own story. I imagine this makes her book about memoir writing a good one.

The new book is called Fearless Confessions. She’s doing a blog tour all month long where she will be featured on different blogs. These blogs will offer giveaways, chats with the author, etc. Details are available here. Today’s blog that she’s on is the terrific WOW – Women on Writing Blog where there’s a video trailer for the book as well as a comments section giveaway.
