I want to start off my memoir with a setting of where I was at with the person the memoir is about. If i do the one about losing my grandmother, I wanted to start off the story describing a Clearwater Phillies game because we went to those games almost every week together. If I do the memoir about my mom getting cancer, I would like to open it up with describing where I was when I found out the news, which was leaving my kindergarten class on my way to the car circle.
With the opening about my grandmother, I want to give the reader an idea about the relationship I had with her. I will describe how she spoiled me and how good she was to me. It will give the reader an idea of how close we were and how tragic it was for me to lose her. In the opening about my mom, I want to get across the point of how young I was and how shocking this news wasto my sisters and I. It shows how my life was dramatically changed in just an instant. It went from a regular school day to a tragic one in just a few minutes.
