I'll try your approach...one of these days. :-)<br /><br />FWIW, I think Nabokov wrote the best memoir title ever: Speak, Memory.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6265428284848727164.post-88817811145824762009-10-29T14:07:06.611-04:002009-10-29T14:07:06.611-04:00Like Judy, my memories come with emotions.

I loved to climb trees when I was a kid. I loved the feeling of being up in the air, hidden among the leaves, the rough bark beneath my legs.

I may still need therapy for that one!J.A.
