Synopsis

While I was writing my memoir I notice some lessons that could help others and me. One of the lessons in my memoir is that you can have relationships with people related to you. For example I knew that Bobi was my god father, but in my memoir I learned new thing about him and at the end of my memoir I could notice that I knew more thing about him.

     Another lesson that I learned is that just knowing the people in your family does not mean you can know them completely. For example while I was writing my memoir I notice that I could no more than what I know about Bobi.

         While I was writing my memoir I learned for the first time how to write a memoir using mentor text from other memoir. Also I learned that I can extend and stretch a memoir as long as I want. Another thing that I learned is that a memoir is written in a way that you can understand what you want to say to the others.        

         The craft move that helped me the most while writing my memoir was the flashback and the research. Also the research because I could tell my memoir but also I can support it by asking someone what they felt about the topic. In my case I asked my mom and my grandma to tell me in their owned word what they felt about Bobi. Also the flashback helped me because I could show the reader what moment I remember.

         The mentor text that most helped me was from the story When I was Puerto Rican because they use lots of flashback. In my memoir I put twice a flashback so the reader could know a little about the background.
