Have you ever wanted to record your life for your kids or your grandchildren? Do you want to tell your life story for fun, even profit? Ever wanted just to make sense of your life through the written word?

Whatever your level of expertise, Rob Parnell will show you how you can easily turn your life story into a manuscript to love and cherish, or even sell on Amazon or submit to publishers.

Life has a way of catching up with us. One moment we're living it up, in the prime of our lives, carefree, full of joy at possibilities, the next, we wonder where all that time went! We like to think we grow wiser and more informed as we age. So why is it nobody wants to listen to us? It's about context. We may have a lot of important, fascinating and profound things to say to people, based on our wealth of experience - but most times, it never seems quite appropriate to tell others how we think, what we've learned over the years, and how they might benefit from what we know. Unless it's within the context of writing.

In your own autobiography, you have free rein, You can entertain, enthrall, dazzle and perhaps most of all, teach others the profound truths you have encountered on your journey through life. Writing your own autobiography is not just a dry recitation of facts about the events in your life, it's an opportunity to explore one of the most diverse and exciting of all subjects: YOU!

Everyone is unique. Everyone has a different perspective. Everyone has something important to say, to record for posterity. Most of all, everyone has a right, perhaps even a duty to record their lives for the benefit of others.

Writing your own autobiography can be an immensely cathartic experience. For perhaps the first time in your life, you can look back and make sense of everything you've done, everything you've achieved. Even failure can teach us valuable lessons if we make the effort to catalog our lives into meaningful stories. Along the way, you may even discover your true purpose, and how close you are to fulfilling your destiny - spiritually and materially.

Do you want the world to experience your loves and losses first hand? Do you want to tell the story of an ancient family feud, or forever unearth that dark secret from your past? Do you want to tell the story of how you became rich and successful? How you fought the odds and won? Or do you just want to relate your childhood - in all its wonder? Or to reimagine your experience of life during boom, bust, peace, and wartime?

Even if you've never written very much before, Rob Parnell will show how to write smooth and effective prose that will sparkle! He will show you what to focus on and why, because writing life stories is not just about the facts, it's also about how you tell the story.
