  1. Life Experience: Prewriting EOL Pgs. 27-28

  2. Choose an Experience • What is the one subject you know the best? Why, you are, of course. You have probably had many experiences that you can write about. The first step in writing an autobiographical incident is choosing one particular experience.

  3. Think about an experience that defines an emotion. When were you most happy, scared, surprised, sad, or angry? Brainstorm with your friends and family members. Ask them to recall a memorable experience that involves you.

  4. Look at your journals and at letters or pictures you have saved. • Draw a road map of your life. Start with your birth and list all the important events that have happened to you up to now, such as your first day of kindergarten, the day your little sister was born, and the time your baseball team won the city championship.

  5. You Be the Judge Once you have a list of experiences, you want to choose the one that will make the best autobiographical incident to share with an audience. The best experience is one that is meaningful, or important, to you. Ask yourself the questions below to decide which experience is most meaningful.
