Everyone in a retirement community has a story to tell and life experiences to share.
Think of writing 500-word descriptions of various parts of your past life.
Early childhood experiences: School choices; awards won along the way.
Current life choices: sports, marriage, and college, for example.
Fellowships and friendships won and lost.
Start with a paragraph. Do not think in terms of a book.
Pictures of family and events sprinkled in now and then add to the reader’s enjoyment.
Go to Kindle Direct Publishing for their templates—I suggest the 6×9 template.
Font size is recommended as 12, but for large print, I use 16 Times New Roman.
