Questions of Creativity: When writing memoir, how do you accurately remember what happened?

Without a diary, is there a way to recollect important parts of your life in order to write about it? Plus I discuss how memoir differs to autobiography.

This is how I am starting a way for us to talk about creativity on here, using a feature I’m going to call “Questions of Creativity.” The idea is this: you can ask me anything at all about creativity, and I’ll choose a question, then have a think about it, and post a video like this one, answering one of your questions, which you can post in the comments below.

This is a feature for my paid subscribers I’m really hoping as many of you as possible might contribute a question. You might want to ask me about creative writing and memoir - for example, how do I structure my work, how do I overcome self doubt, or how do I develop metaphor, or how do I write memoir without upsetting other people, or how many words in a first draft?

Please feel free to ask your questions below and it could be yours I answer next!
