Elena Gorokhova
"A famous quote from Chekhov that sounds better in Russian goes something like, 'If you are able not to write, don't write.' If you can live without it, don't do it, because it's painful and humiliating and an awful lot of work, especially memoir."
— Elena Gorokhova

"Figure out the hot spots in your story. What are the moments or events after which your life was no longer the same? If you write enough of these and put them in chronological order, this is your memoir."
