This workbook was developed alongside bestselling author Amy Liz Harrison's 10-week Eternally Reflecting Memoir Class. Using her experience publishing two successful memoirs, Harrison created this workbook as resource to guide other writers through the process of sharing their stories with the world. A message from the author:"Memoir writing has been an amazing journey for me-I get to share my experience driving this road, while encouraging and connecting with others. I get to take the lessons I have learned from all the detours and wrong turns and leave my own guide book, forever emblazoned in my own words. Join me in this adventure! Think of writing a memoir as a gift to yourself. When you realize the dark past is actually your greatest asset, you give yourself a priceless treasure: true emotional freedom."

Before she was the quirky mom of eight, Amy Liz Harrison was a California kid, growing up in the 1980s, obsessed with Madonna and Moonlighting. Her first book, Eternally Expecting, navigated the bumpy ride of Harrison's early adult life. We followed her marriage, the birth of her first four children, and the ongoing postpartum depression she tried to numb with alcohol. Ultimately, the touching story of her first decade of sobriety was revealed. In Eternally Awkward, we find another culprit at work. Depression had an accomplice-one that was difficult to catch. This hilarious mystery of self-discovery tracks the author's childhood, delivering mounting clues that lead to the missing piece of her mental health picture-ADHD. Each chapter reveals "clues" in the form of embarrassing, ridiculous, and ultimately very relatable stories of growing up in the 1980s. But there's also another story at work: Woven through the pages is the aftermath of a panic attack triggered by a rubber doll smelling of alcohol. Was it a curious foreshadowing of Harrison's drunken days to come? Choose your character: Will it be Colonel Mustard or Miss Peacock? We've got a case to solve. Instead of a suspect, weapon, and room, we see Harrison's trifecta of mental health challenges come to completion. For her, anxiety plus depression equals ADHD. Grab a can of Tab and come help us place the last piece in the puzzle.
