Writing a biography

There is a tendency when trying to tell a story using the personal pronoun, I, to be narrating stuff that are merely in your head and involves no action or outward physical manifestation. For instance, if you use the first person point of view, you'll be tempted to say "I'm happy" rather than describing in detail what being happy looks as a series of physical actions. This is not the case with a detached point of view because technically, there is no narrator. The readers will have to immerse themselves by following the actions of the actors or characters of the story. Incidentally, I noticed this problem of the "introvert" story when I tried adding a kind of "about me" section to my blog publication. I wanted to tell a story of a blogger (i.e., me) and telling it using the first person pronoun will practically turn the story into some kind of personal opinion piece. Anyway, I've made a conscious decision to follow storytelling techniques. But it's more about readability and likability rather than ease of writing. P.S. Here's the link to A "Blogger Guy" Story for my initial solution to a storytelling problem: http://hannibal-bawagan.blogspot.com/2010/03/blogger-guy-story.html

I don't see why not. Be creative! =) For me , I do not find it easier to write from the 3rd person point of view. I was just thinking last night that the words flow far more eloquently when I write as though I'm conversing with someone. Just saying. I'm sure we all have our own way of writing =)
