1 y separately published work icon In Life There Is Luck : A Memoir of an Ordinary Life with Reflections on Memoir Writing Graeme Gibson , Kyogle : More Than Just Talk , 2023 26047135 2023 single work autobiography 'Everyone has a story to tell & writing a life story is something many people plan on doing one day. Lacking confidence and knowing how to approach the writing are major hurdles for many. And for some there is self-doubt that their life has been interesting enough. In Life There is Luck demonstrates there is no need for fame, glory or a particular fate. An ordinary life, if there is such a thing, has a story to tell and other lives to enrich. This is a story of personal growth, from the dismal and disinterested to the aware and inspired. In the way of a sociological memoir that unpacks the social, cultural and historical context of events, this book links personal experiences with the universal, offering connections to the wider world. In Life There is Luck is in part a memoir on memoir writing, designed to inspire others to write their life stories & through example, make memoir writing readily accessible. Commentary on the craft of memoir writing is integral to the story. Guidance comes from the author's experience writing and presenting writing workshops along with the wisdom of a range of literary greats.'
