Comment on Have anyone here actually published a memoir or know of someone IRL (as in, you've met them face to face) that published a memoir? Do people actually read these?

Required to be published as a memoir.

Corroboration from others, photographs, medical/police reports, receipts, travel documents, the normal ways.

No, you have to bring receipts.

Medical records, photographs of bruises/marks, checking with friends or teachers you might have told about the abuse at the time.

If its required, how the fuck did “A Million Little Pieces” get published?

Also, I could just Kindle Direct Publish it… whatever… its not like I care that much about money, I just want my story to be heard.

  They began requiring it after and in response to that- that’s the James Frey scandal I mentioned.
