Autobiography

Even if you try and prove me wrong, your life has been interesting.  I know that you've had AT LEAST one really cool or depressing thing happen to you.  It's time to start the autobiography paper.  You've guessed it.  You will be writing about your life!  In no way, shape or form do I expect you to write ANYTHING you are uncomfortable about sharing or your family or friends would not want you sharing.  Don't write that!  Just write about events and ideas that are comfortable with you because I will be reading this and, just maybe, so will your classmates!  Here's the rules:

• Have your outline in to me by next week on Wednesday
• Do 1 interview with a family member or friend who tells you about YOURSELF-this will give you ideas of what to write about & show you how others view you
• Your roughdraft needs to be 4-5 pages
• Have an underlying theme or moral to your story...the reader needs that at the end to feel touched and inspired and feel like it was worth reading
• Have fun!  You'll learn a lot about yourself (:

And please...try to make it better than this!
