Suppose you want to write a memoir based on true, exciting events from your past life ... but, due to lapsed time, you have to fictionalize some of the 'in-betweens' to link the true events together.
How do you characterize the story?
"A fictionalized memoir based on true events."
"A memoir"
"A creative nonfiction memoir (or narrative nonfiction memoir)."
Actually, I wonder if most published memoirs don't in fact have a lot of made-up fragments to complete the story?
Any input will be a great learning experience for many, including yours truly, and greatly appreciated...
