I'd refuse ...if I were smart!
"Explain what you would do if someone asked you to write a biography of your life (however long or short it may be right now)."

We will be remembered as others choose to remember us.

Yes, I could write something to "set the facts straight". But even that would be fiction. I mean ...very few of us remember everything and even then it's only from our perspective.

My journal, my blogs, my prose, my poetry ...they all give a glimpse into who I am. But how much is fact? How much is fiction? And which is really closest to who I am?

In the end, I think the fiction wins out. Our dreams, how we weave a life out of them, how others weave their dreams in and out of ours. Our lives are art fashioned from gossamer.
