Simply sharing a password method I was taught years ago that works well.
Granted I  never allow anything to choose a password for me, not ever.
Instead I create a sentence with aspects of the characters forming the 
password.
As an example, I will create one, not in use of course,  for the below 
sentence.
in 2012 I joined the Debian list.
Again everything above  is likely untrue, still it becomes the following.
ItlI#10t4l
I for the word in,
t is the twentieth letter of the alphabet,
l is the twelfth letter of the alphabet,
I for the word I
a # for the special character
10 for the letter   j in joined
T for the word the
4 represents the letter d in Debian, and finally
l for the word list.
Its  simply a method, but a fun one.  create a sentence that makes you 
smile to remember, finding creative representations for the letters 
numbers and needful symbols.
Yes  wise to write it down, but you can do that anywhere, with  it 
unlikely to seem like a password.
Hope that resonates,

Karen
