Define autobiography writing

People expect an autobiography to be written in the first person since it is about you

When discussing events, you might use ‘I,’ ‘Me,’ or ‘Mine,’ rather than she or he

If you’re sharing a story about a key person in your life, you’ll naturally refer to them as he or she

What is an Autobiography? The word ‘autobiography’ derives from three Greek roots: the prefix, auto (self), the root word, bio (life), and the suffix, graphy (writing)—self-life-writing

In essence, an autobiography is a first-person narrative detailing the highlights of one’s life

Towards the end, an effective autobiography often includes reflections on lessons learned, changes in perspective over time, and the wisdom acquired along life’s journey
