How do I Write an Autobiography?

January 10th, 2010 by admin

“I want to write my autobiography,” new students often declare. Invariably they mean they want to write their memoirs. An autobiography is a narrative of a whole life of a person, written by that person. Memoirs are written memories clustered around a theme. The theme may be life on a farm, travel, career, a city, the theater, any aspect of life. Memoirs tell of particular times or episodes throughout life. They are selected parts: the trips, the farm, the jobs, the stage, the war, and of course the people. A memoir can be as long as a page, a chapter, or a book.
