I will file it away for when I am working on my novel. For now, though, how would this apply to a memoir? I'm having trouble getting started. I have thousands and thousands of words, but no real start. How do I find the start that will hook a potential agent/publisher/buyer?

Any advice for non fiction novels? I am currently rewriting for the third time a book about the curse of traveling and would love some guidance. Thanks
