What We Thought We Remembered

What We Thought We Remembered: A Collection of Warped Memoirs is a book of short stories inspired by Dr. Daniel Schacter's The Seven Sins of Memory: How the Mind Forgets and Remembers. Each story explores the balance between vice and virtue, harmony in the company of duality, through stories depicting each of Schacter's "sins": transience, absent-mindedness, blocking, misattribution, suggestibility, bias, and persistence. Sofie uses evocative imagery to bring her warped memoirs to life in a surreal world beyond our seen reality. So let your imagination take flight and your feet groove to the ebb and flow of these twisted tales.

Sofie Mykiel Elliott was born in Seattle, USA, where she spent her childhood playing make-believe in the forests and training as a dancer at a performing arts academy. Sofie was encouraged from an early age to express herself through the arts, leading to over fifteen years in competitive ballroom dancing, a prolific ESL channel, and a budding writing career. With a BA in French and Communications, she developed a deep love of languages: spoken, written, and body. Sofie is now based in Germany as a full-time English language teacher to students worldwide.
