    Writing my life story but overwhelmed

    Discussion in 'Plot Development' started by Shane the writer, Nov 30, 2021.

    I have been trying to write my life story since high school. Years passed and I didn’t.
    now I found a ghost writer online who would help with editing my work.
    I really want to write my story before the end of the year.
    Lots have happened since high school lived in multiple places, major life changes.. etc so its really overwhelming and I don’t even know where to start anymore. Any advice

    As the King told Alice, "Begin at the beginning, and continue on until the end."

    Seriously, it's your life story. Life unfolds in a linear chronology, so I would begin by remembering and jotting down as much as you can, sorting it chronologically, and then sifting to see how much is worth actually writing about.

    Thank you I did what you said. I wrote everything I find related to my story on the computer then I recorded my chapters as voice messages. The ghost writer will write them for me. I think I finished my book in one week
