The next novel was published on a local magazine its name was "SHE WILL COME, I DO BELIEVE THAT SHE WILL COME" now i am writing an another novel on my current life and struggle. Thanks didi.

I've never done it. But I do love to read autobiographies, true story articles on a person with illness, sad and heartfelt stories and many more. I would always keep my life at a considerable pace; that means not being too secretive and not too open either. I mean, just like a celebrity, their life is out there on the platter, but they do deserve some form of privacy to themselves. So, if say I have an idea to be able to write my own story, I'll not keep anything a secret as long as it doesn't involve my self respect and family ones too. But if it's a personal well lesson learned and something that I can share for others not to make the same mistakes again or to share my joy, laughter and experiences over the years, I won't hesitate to write them down. Good one from you here, jaiho..

I also love to read real life story,particular stories from reader's digest. Of course,no one wants to disclose some personal matters in public,even celebrities do have the rights for some reservation about their private life,not everything to be published in public.They also wants some privacy and freedom like ordinary people do. And you are right,if something about out life is worth to give the public some lesson,or awareness,then...it won't hurt if we will published that part of our life,if it means helping other people. thanks for your response and have a good day always friend

I couldn't agree more; everyone has a right to retain and give out information that they want to. I love Reader's Digest too; awesome..

Hi Jai! I have not written my life story. Though it would be seemingly an interesting idea to write an autobiography, yet I do not intend doingit in near future. Let my life be secret for the time being and when at any stage I feel that my life story should be made known to others, I may consider writing my life story and I know it would indeed be a great fun recalling all those past events.

You are putting me in the dock by saying that how colourful or secret could be my life. It is not so. I am a simple human being and I am living a life as an average person would lead. You please definitely implement your idea of writing your life story, you will surely enjoy reading your own story and please do not forget to send me a copy of that so that I could also know more about you. It is always fun to know about dear friends' lives.

my life is not a simple next door story...it can be like any ordinary stories too,but the twists makes it exciting and interesting,that you could say "aha...i never thought there's a fantastic story behind that simple gurl" (hehehe...just kidding dear) i will send you a copy once it will be done,and you can send your story too..like "exchange paper" after an exam (nyahaha) smile dear and good evening! :)

At least you have made your life open with the public,thu some part of it is missing. I guess,some personal matter in life is the most interesting part of every real life story. Keep writing,and who knows,one day it will published in the market soon. Thanks for your response and have a good day always

No way Jaiho, not a chance in HELL. but there was a user who started posting a lot of everything in his life through the blog, after that he started putting other stuff, he has starte earning a lot of money. and then one day he was interviewed by people in Mel and joey about the gimmicks of blogging. but he was kinda disappointed because the show host made a bit short cut of it that left him explaining everything in his blog. the guys name is abe colandres.

hello mylotters, plan to publish my life would be a good idea. Because I believe that the "ups and down" I went through my life would be inspirational especially to those people who can relate their story with mine. I hope that would motivate them that having a dark past is not our fault (because some people blame themselves for no valid reason at all) but we have to accept it so we can go on with our life. And inspire them that having those kind of "not so good past" should not prevail them for achieving their goals and dreams or to be the best person we all can be. xoxo!!! sweetsacrifice

i agree with you dear,some people with dark/bad past feels being condemned always. Of course no one want's to have bad memories of the past,everyone wants to have a happy and memorable life. But life is uncertain that,we can't hold some things in our hands and not everything is beyond our control. Waiting for your book dear friend,have a nice day always

I have started to write my story. I started a little while ago, but I'm usually on it and off it. I want to write my story because I believe my story to be a very interesting one. I don't plan on making the story to where everyone knows it's my life story fully. I know there will be bits and pieces that my friends would probably pick up on themselves but hopefully they didn't come to realize everything is the truth. Everyone has a bad time in their life, well at least I believe so, and so I'm a little scared. But I've always enjoyed writing stories. I use to write stories when I was younger and I even remember placing in some contest I wrote on for. It was so much easier winning when you're little. But I hope one day to be able to put my book out there. I want to be able to touch people's heart with my writing. I don't plan on doing it for the money, but of course they money would be nice if I'm still in the situation I am in now. Only a few close friends know that I'm trying to write a book. It can be hard to write, especially when I'm picking with my words that I use. I pray one day to be able to make it.

You just keep writing dear and we will be waiting the latest news from you,that ...you will be soon launching your life story based book... I think in every true to life story,there's always a mystery,not every details ever told,there's still some secrets that remains kept for privacy and personal matters. And that makes a true to life story exciting and interesting. Good luck on your writing and have a nice day always friend

i had lot of failures in life that the moment i become a successful guy, il be writing one but il think twice if im gonna publish it or not hihi. but prior to that, ive been wanting to write a life story of my grandma. although it didnt have a happy ending, its a very nice rags to riches love story. you bet coz its really a very inspiring one! it has a very good moral lesson that everyone will surely not forget it as they meet the ups and downs of their lives. just cant get things started

Well, I personally feel that people would be interested to buy an autobiography of Mahathma Gandhi or Obama rather than an unknown and anonymous person and I feel there's nothing great in my life to talk about,I mean to say that I haven't achieved anything in my life yet.But would definitely do so when I"ll be successful, not for money or fame, but since I believe, that these autobiographies are great success stories, imparting the knowledge and inspiring many others to follow their steps.

I think so,but,there are other publications that printed true to life story...like pocketbooks,they only had to change personal info and add some twist,but the entire story is based from true to life event. I don't think only the rich famous has story to tell. Thanks for your response and have a great day always :)

writing our pain and difficulties is life give some peace of mind. And,reading it after will make us realize some better things in life also. I find writing when we are angry or upset helps me unload so many burden in my heart.And after reading it,i let it burned and throw away all the worries too. Thanks for your response and have a nice day always dear
