What would you name your autobiography?

Brilliant!

@IdahoRose: There's actually a soundtrack for your "End Of Summer" Bio. The song is "Wait Until The Summer's Gone" by Zebra.

"...And That's Not Even Half Of The Story"

"With leaden feet towards the end"

Wow, I'm amazed that somebody actually wrote a song about committing suicide when summer's over.

*looks it up*

Though that song sounds too hardcore/awesome for my life - the soundtrack to my autobiography would more likely include stuff like "Through the Rain" by Mariah Carey and "(There's Gotta Be) More to Life" by Stacie Orrico.

I would call my autobiography, "A Seat at the Bar."

"Southern Gothic - Surviving Where Insanity Is Normal"

[Moved from General Autism Discussion to Art, Writing, and Music]

"It's all, s**ts and giggles"

'All Downhill From Birth'

But to be fair, if you're on a downhill ride, what can you do but stick your arms in the air and enjoy the plunge?

Nah, seriously, I've had my downs, but also plenty of ups to even it out; I shouldn't complain.

Sometimes, I've actually come up with stuff before that would make pretty good titles for an autobiography; but I can't recall them now.

Also, IdahoRose, cool that you're giving Stacie Orrico a nod.

Probably "Book".

I think I once thought of a name to one... I'd love to write one. I'll probably pick a catch phrase from inside the book, if/when

this is similar to what I was going to suggest: "Born at a tender age, and all downhill from there."

I always wonder about the figurative use of downhill/uphill and which one I should use... "downhill" conveys the sense of descent/degradation but makes it sound like such an easy ride, while "uphill" sounds appropriately like hard work but also makes it sound like things are improving. I'm never quite sure how to take it when other people use such phrases, either.

Other possibilities- "Death: An Asymptotic Approach;" "Grendel's Guide to Quaffing and Other Mirth-Hall Etiquette."

"I, robot."

or "Oh, so that's not what you meant!".

I may've posted in this thread already saying I was going to call my autobiography something like""Some former preemies later go to university". This is a quote from a newspaper article about saving preemies' lives when they're deemed to ill to hav ea good quality of life.

Then again I'd have to write a sequel about my struggle with DID. I'm not sure yet what its title should be. Any ideas?

"Cockletweet"
