Alphabiography

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

An alphabiography is an autobiography consisting of a set of twenty-six short stories or chapters about the writer's life.

Each story or chapter has a title starting with a different letter of the alphabet, for example: "Apple growing", "Baseball", "Cynthia" etc. At the end of the writing of the alphabiographies, the whole thing is put together to sum up the writer's life. This may be tricky, but the main goal still is to select appropriate titles so that overall the completed alphabiography sums up the writer's life.

Teachers sometimes use 'Write your alphabiography' as an English studies project for school or college students.
