memoirist

A memoirist is a person who writes and shares their personal life stories and experiences, often focusing on specific themes or periods. Unlike autobiography, which covers a person’s entire life, a memoir usually explores particular events or insights that have shaped their identity or worldview. Memoirists aim to provide an honest, reflective account that offers readers insight into their life journey, emotions, and lessons learned. Their work can be literary, journalistic, or personal, serving both as a form of self-expression and a way to connect others through shared human experiences.
