memoir moment
when a tragic or insightful life experience causes a writer to think “i could write about this,” and subsequently “that’s awful/narcissistic. why would i think that?” it seems that the whole thought process should invalidate the experience’s potential as writing fodder but can instead make for a nice modernist moment in which the author’s role is explicitly recognized.
mother: “maurice died.”
writer: “oh, that’s terrible.”
writer’s brain: (what luck! my strange and unique relationship with this person will make for a compelling chapter in my yet-to-be-written memoir!)
writer’s heart: (you are a b-st-rd.)
writer’s brain: (i know. what a memoir moment.)
writer’s b-lls: (write about it anyway.)
mother: “have you been taking your medication?”
writer: “huh?”
