Biography Maker
Just what is a biography?
The story of someone's life?
A tale of accomplishment?
A tale of woe?
Or is it a boring list of facts
that nobody cares about?
A good biography brings
the person to life . . .
makes us care
about what she or he did
with time and opportunity.
Who wants to read
another boring biography?
Who wants to write one?
Certainly not you!
