Today, is as good as any to give you a real B--I--G challenge. I know you can do it, but you will need to put some energy and your mind into this one. And, of course, your pen.

Let's go ahead and dive in...

This is a journaling exercise to learn to write in an "autobiographic voice." Okay, you want to know what is an autobiographic voice. Fair question. Let's begin by defining voice. Our voice is the way you choose to express yourself either verbal or written. A voice comprises of tone, attitude, choice of words, and the person's point of view.

There are various types of voices. Each voice comprises of numerous elements and each as unique as DNA. You can use an encouraging voice to build your creative self. Or a judgmental voice to assess an issue. Or, use a voice of history, like Alex Haley, to speak to future generations, or Martin Luther King's, "I have a dream" speech. Voices in writing come from your feelings at the time recorded. Voice expresses your message and in turn determines your audience, even if the audience is only you.

Expressing our autobiographic voice in writing is different than other voices because you are writing in the "ever-- moving present."

Autobiographic writing is in retrospect. It is a voice of recollection in which you look back at your memories and use them to tell the story of your life. You are the main character with goals and desires. Your autobiography is the story of those desires, of what you wanted, how you struggled and what you learned in the process.

Let's take this process one step at a time...

Step 1: First you need to access a memory.

Just for fun, return to your earliest memory as a child. For me, it was when I was four years old. Place yourself in a particular place and date.

Can you remember the date? Was there music playing somewhere? What about smells? Was Mama cooking? Were there any body memories? I remember having a scraped knee, I could see and feel the band--aid, but I don't remember the fall.

During this step, my first preference is to write one or two word details. You could complete this in a list format or continuous with comma separations. As you begin to return to that particular point, and as the smallest, largest details pop up, and the details continue, the list will grow and the memory will grow stronger.

Memories aren't hard to remember, they just get placed in a storage box. It's like going up into grandma's attic, finding the right box, and then opening it. As you pull from the top, the next appear but not until the top one goes. You will want to continue going through the box until its empty.
