Yes, the hardest part will be organizing SO MUCH material and deciding what to include and what not, and drilling down to what your angle/plot will be. But it's also such a gift to HAVE all of that material at your fingertips. You can do anything you wish with this.

Once you get words on paper(no matter how painful) you'll be able to revise where needed or find your voice. If you write this book/story, you automatically succeed. You will have told the history of your father's life--for you, for your family and possibly for others to learn from. If it's published, that's all to the good. Yet the writing process is also illuminating and cathartic. Margarethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17197599882756386184noreply@blogger.com
