Writing a memoir based on family history can be an extraordinary adventure, one I highly recommend undertaking. My just-completed manuscript is based on my grandfather, an aviation pioneer, who died when my father was only four years old. Like many who have written family-based stories, I initially did not set out to write a full book.

My inspiration came from my grandmother. When she passed away at ninety-nine, I inherited her collection of never-before-seen photographs, articles, and an extensive array of newspaper clippings. What began as a casual attempt to learn more about my ancestors for a short Shutterfly project turned into an eight-year journey of discovery.
