Yesterday I went to visit a friend who is recovering from a severe heart attack. He was weak but is improving and seemed in relatively good spirits.
His sister was spending some time with him. We all had a very interesting chat for a couple of hours before he started to tire. But in that time I discovered his sister is a biographer by trade, which I found really interesting. I've never met a biographer before, and by the time I left, I had become interested in telling my own story. Even if it is never published, never read by anyone, it might be cathartic for me.
Just wondering if anyone has written their life story, or even considered trying? And also whether there are biographers here, or if anyone knows a biographer?
