Writing an autobiography.?

Question

Im writing an autobiographical narrative.

last semester i wrote a narrative about something that happened in life that changed me.

now the autobiography one has to be something that changed us too.. so is there much of a difference between the two?

Answer 1

The only difference is in who is speaking. A biographer says the following about ME, "He was born at 1030 the morning of July 13th, 1948 At Saint Veronica's Hospital in the city of Chicago. At the time, his family lived in a 2 story walk-up on Diversey Avenue." In my autobiography, I would say, "I was born at 1030 the morning of July 13th, 1948 At Saint Veronica's Hospital in the city of Chicago. At the time, my family lived in a 2 story walkup on Diversey Avenue." The only difference is in WHO does the research and the talking, you yourself, or another party, the biographer. You talk in the 1st person, your biographer talks in the 3rd person. Either way, the story is the same, your life and times, the only difference is who speaks your life story.
