Writing Your Autobiography
Raymond Flower


Everyone has one book that they are qualified to write – their own life story. But not everyone knows how to go about doing it. Now, with this little book, which will have them chuckling as they read it, they can get expert advice and finally get started.

Writing Your Autobiography is a blueprint for the would-be autobiographer. It takes you step by step through all the issues, from literary styles to practical matters such as how to get published. Since every autobiography is unique – both in the story it tells and the approach it adopts, the book uses a range of techniques. Parts are in prose; others are tackled conversationally; and some adopt a question and answer format.

Throughout, the examples the author has selected will amuse you. Even if you never get down to writing your own biography, you will have learnt to appreciate what makes a good one.
