Sheri Lisker asked T. Coraghessan Boyle:

Have you ever thought of writing a memoir?

T. Coraghessan Boyle I like to say that the truly dramatic events of my life occurred in infancy, so any memoir would be fairly uneventful. So: no. I like to write fiction, and only fiction, though you will see that a number of my stories, like "Up Against the Wall" or "Birnam Wood" have strongly autobiographical elements. See the Preface to T.C. Boyle Stories II for elaboration here.
