I visit my local library once a week, delighted if a requested book is waiting for me. They’re stored on a book trolley and alphabetically ordered, so I drop to my knees to search for a slip of paper with my surname on it sticking out from the books at the end of the bottom shelf. This looks like I’m praying to my deity!
For the last couple of months, I’ve been distracted by the spine of a chunky biography with my forename on it: Paul: A Biography
I don’t know why the borrower hasn’t collected it yet, but I wish they would, as I keep thinking someone has written my life story without my permission. Mind you, much of what I’ve done in the last 66 years has been unauthorised!
It made me wonder what I’d call my autobiography or what my biographer would come up with. The first title that sprang to mind was:
WTF Did I Think I Was Doing?!
A more polite title would be:
Scrapings From The Bottom Of The Oven.
What would the title of your biography be?
