If you were reading a dead guys biography, what would you want to know about him?
Not just the usual, like how he died, where he was born and so on, but the stuff that would really let you, as a person, know him, as a person.
As the title suggests, help is greatly appreciated.
Just ask if you need clarification. |

I'm keeping a journal(manly i know) and I want to know what things to put in it that will let people in the future, when I'm dead, know about my life, times and thoughts without any need for conjecture.
Think about it, interpretations of peoples works have created so much strife, I want none of that, just plain flat out truth. |

Some insight into your decision making process.
A clear concise well written easy to interpret list of you views, values, and other such things.
So people won't go around yelling you something you are when it turns out you aren't. |

I agree with Anym
a look into one's thoughts and thought processes.
"I chose to go this route in my life because of this and this only. I felt influence from this subject but they weren't the primary reason that I chose to....."
get it? |

Come on how hard is it to explain why you do the things you do.
In fact that's probably the best reason to write an autobiography.
I did this and here's why..................................................................................................................... |

It is impossible to know how a person was as a person. The only thing you can go on is other peoples' version of how they were. Chances are, though, the guy was a real dickhead. Or, she was a total whore. |
