I've been writing a on going memoir of sorts centered around my
impending Lung Transplant...

I would sure appreciate some feedback from people who are practicing writers.

I am thinking about publishing as a book, especially if I come through the operation.

Please check it out...

thank you...

1. A book would be a great idea
You might have to do it yourself, because agents and publishers are generally wary about memoirs from the non-famous.

Self-publishing is fine if the author doesn't have high expectations. However, a book like yours could be advertised on various medical sites and blogs and might find a good niche audience.
