SouthWest Writers presents memoirist Kathleen A. Hessler, discussing how&nbsp;everyone has a story, but not everyone wants to share it. If you want to write a memoir, or have written one and are deciding whether to seek an agent, a publisher, self-publish, or set it aside for later, this talk is for you. This is not a how-to speech; rather, it is an opportunity to learn from my mistakes.
