Book excerpt: With the growing number of writing groups in genealogy societies, this book should serve as a guide to help overcome some of the roadblocks some genealogists experience with their writing skills. This book is about writing family history with special examples to help the nonwriter get started. It outlines a simple process that will aid your research and create pages of information that can be read and understood by all family members. The process has a dual focus. First, it makes research more efficient, and then it creates a readable family history. As a result, your research will become faster and more accurate, and your family can enjoy the family history. Don’t be afraid to begin. Concentrate on finding one story and then another by doing the research. You will find small pieces first that will make the task easier. Eventually, the small pieces will begin to fit together, and the overall story of your family history will appear. Do the work and get the details to organize and save it for future generations.
