What is We Love Memoirs Day?
We Love Memoirs Day was founded in 2013 by memoir authors Victoria Twead and Alan Parks to bring readers and writers together around one of literature's most intimate forms. A memoir focuses on a single, significant period or moment rather than the whole sweep of a life — The Diary of a Young Girl by Anne Frank is perhaps the most famous example. The day is celebrated with online writing circles, where new memoirists pick up tips, make friends and share drafts; by starting a personal memoir of one's own; and simply by recommending a favourite memoir to someone who hasn't read it.
How to celebrate
Mark the day with a poster made in Dayfeed — pick your favourite photo as the background, share it to your story or group chat, and set a reminder so you never miss it next year.
