PREFACE Welcome to my narrative project Whenever I was asked to write narratives in school in the past, I have felt I could write a whole book. Yes, I did a little bit of writing in high school and College back home in Nigeria, I didn't really discover much about myself, who I really was and as a writer, I didn't know how to write a memoir. It all started in our English Composition I class when we were asked to answer the PROUST QUESTIONNAIRE. In answering those questions, I started discovering another part of me I never discovered before. Answering the Proust questionnaire made me see another part of me as writer, which I explored more when I wrote a letter to my author self. As I explored more about writing, I encountered an interesting aspect of memoir writing that is fascinating, which describes writing, as a process and not a product and this was achieve through a round table discussion which I also learnt to give quotes in writing process with three other authors, it was really fun. Writing a memoir in narrative form was another interesting but emotional part of my writing. Composing an Emotional scene with Dialogue and symbolism exposed another part of me as a writer I never realized, I wrote this memoir, I felt the emotional impact I never felt in ten years since I lost my Dad, this part of my writing brought back memories and I could picture in my head where he was buried in our sitting room. When it was time to tell my self a different story known as a memoir counterfactual to my blog posting number 5 (Emotional Scene with Dialogue), I didn't know what to write, I couldn't imagine any "what ifs" I couldn't rap my head around any other thing that would have apart from what had happened already in my blog posting number 5, but with the help of my Professor, Sabatino Mangini I was made to understand and to imagine a different way my story could have happened or ended and still portray the emotional scenes with dialogue and symbolism. With this, I was able to modify my story in a different way with a different ending. Writing a "true story about a past experience" as my narrative project memoir was quit challenging, how and where to start, ability to remember every scene and writing them the way it all happened. Also, I have a lot of past experiences that I would love to write about, so it was a bit difficult to decide on which to write on, but after I reading Narrative Writing, Creative Nonfiction, and Memoir (questions to deepen genre awareness), I ended up writing about this;
