Writing Your Life Story in Prose
Is Not an Easy Project!
Writing my book A Life in Orbit: A Biography
in Verse was a big challenge. I had to try
something new that as far as I know hadn’t
been attempted – to revisit my past – as a
record in verse.
I had to transform a narrative style into verse,
to remember my life in detail from my earliest
memories to the present day, to re-live
traumas, to record and detail disappointments,
loss, frustrations and defeats. I had to develop
a consecutive sequence of events and be
completely honest and true to myself, and to
all the others involved in my journey. And
after all this, to retain the discipline of fourline stanzas in order to create a comprehensive,
11-part autobiographical poem.
In my first book of poetry and prose, The
Learning Process, I explored many themes.
For my second book, A Life in Orbit, I was
determined to try something novel and new. It
was daunting because I had to return to my past and translate my thoughts and memories into the
discipline of words, lines and verses. I wrote truthfully and without embellishment. I have
suffered in my life, but I have also triumphed. Here is my story in verse.
