[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Writing a book about your family, for anyone, is always a horrible idea. The end of all your relationships. Accolades from readers/reviews will not matter, will never matter enough. Not compared to what the author has lost. By publishing, they have done the most intense, self destructive act possible.[/quote] Eh. Depends on the family. If your family is abusive, neglectful, or otherwise dysfunctional, ending some relationships, and shining light on your experiences might, if nothing else, provide critical support for the next generation. “What the author has lost” might well be the healthiest of the available options out there. On the other side, the Obamas and their books seem to be doing fine. My guess is that it’s not about the accolades for many, as much as it is shining the light of day on their experiences. [/quote]
