Section A BIOGRAPHY More factual than an autobiography Gives the flavour of a person’s life/a day/a specific moment or particular moments To learn about the lives of other people – their loves, their peeves, their hopes, their sorrows, their highs and lows, their successes and failures, their trials and tribulations… Celebrities, royalty, nobility, achievers, notorious criminals, historical personages, politicians, movers and shakers are those whose biographies have been penned.
Key Ingredients: The writer’s fascination with her/his subject Facts and details from the subject’slife The use of the third person Putting a person’s life in some kind of order Being innovative – by not just using a chronological narrative but also going back and forth in time to create more reader interest (flashback and flash forward)
