TWQ: Autobiography Title

This week, TWQ (The Weekend Question) we look at possible titles for your, and other people's autobiographies.

What title would you give to your autobiography? Be as serious or as funny as you wish. Also, think of some good titles for other people's autobiographies.

My answers are:

"See If You Bother To Read Past Page 2."

"My Ghostwritten Autobiography Published So That I can Make A Lot Of Money Now That I Am A Faded Star By Trashing Other People."

Beverly Crusher: "I Lost My Heart To A Starship Captain" (apologies to Sarah Brightman)

Sherlock Holmes: "An Elementary Life."

Now it's over to you...

Stupid words of a trashy poet

Bilbo said...

Random Thoughts of a Disorganized Mind.

Or,

I'm Okay, What's Wrong with You?

Pat said...

Seriously: I am actually writing it in my blog 'Past Imperfect' but I discover this title has been used so often, by such as Joan Collins for instance, that I'll have to think again. Maybe 'Pat's Imperfect Past,'
Whadddya think? Good idea for a post:)
Hi from Michele.

Michele sent me over to play. So mine would be: 'Running before Walking' or something like that.

rashbre said...

I'd probably call mine 'rashbre'.
But then it would be confusing and hard to find in the bookshelves.

Here, thinking of titles, via Michele! And greetings!

Something like:

Dumb poet strikes again!

You can always blame it on Michele!

Well, naturally it would have to be, "Drinking Blue Beaver Beer Down At The Redneck". An alternative title might be, "I'm Jealous Because Michelle Never Sends Me Here".

Pat said...

My grand-daughter has just put you on my side bar.

The first thing I can think of is 'Welshmen Tell No Tales', so that's as good a title as any.

He never wrote an autobiography, but I'd like to think that if he ever had done, James Stewart would've called his 'A Wonderful Life'.

Hi Jean-Luc, Michele sent me to see what TWQ is this weekend....

Actually this one is easy...

My biography would be called 'Queen of the Crazies' - this initial nickname that spawned the persona 'craziequeen'........

I'll have to go away and think of others'....

Jane said...

That's a good question. Let's see, I think I would call my autobiography:
"In a Minute". My husband says I say that ALL the time so it seems it would be appropriate!

Linda said...

Hmmm ... good question ...

For you, Captain, I would choose - "Make It So"

For Riker - "Number One With a Bullet"

For Worf - "Real Klingons Don't Wear Spandex"

For myself - "One Emergency After Another" or "The Mouse That Blogged"

For Michelle - "I Never Sent Linda Over"

How's that??

The Mistress of the Dark said...

I think Sarah will forgive Beverly :)

Here's mine

Diary Of A Music Whore, which was the original title of my blog before I had a blog stalker make a misery of my life :)

Lahdeedah said...

Mine would be:

Life, The River That Drowned Lahdeedah

Okay but if I become famous it would be...

Life, the River Lahdeeda Navigated

Dull and duller I know.

For Seven:
I Never Assimilated A Ferengie, and Other Musings from a Borg Cube

For Captain:
Loves and Lies of a Starship Captain, a Photobiography

For Worf:
I am Klingon

That's my bit!

Paperback Writer said...

Mutterings from a Semi-Crazy Person

Jaime said...

I can't think of a title for my own autobiography.

But, maybe for Q:

My Life, Vol. 1: The First Ten Billion Years.

If that's dorky, blame the cold medicine! lol

Oh let's see...

"The Life and Times of a Spirit stuck and gagged in the Matrix called *Life*"

Yup, just as enigmatic as I like.

Hugs!

A great collection of titles!

You got quite a few there, Linda & Lahdeedah.

Pat, thank your granddaughter for me.

sage said...

Here from Michele's, to make my suggestions:

Tired Feet and a Sore Back...

or maybe

Fishing for Answers

Andi said...

I used to know what I would call a book about me....but I am probably sleepy right now. I will be going to bed soon...I often blog until sunup...yes, I'm weird. Anyway, I will have to think about that and Michele sent me. :-)

Danny Bailey said...

Hmmm Musings of a Protegé?

Bobkat said...

Michele sent me back to have another go. I think mine might also be entitled: 'Frankly, I still have no idea what is going on'.

Professor Xavier said...

"Once you go bald, you'll never go back."

OldLady Of The Hills said...

I have absolutely NO Idea...LOL! I cannot even think of a "joke"one....BUT, give me a little bit of time and IF I think of one, I'll come back, my dear Jean-Luc! This is,as always, a great question.

Panthergirl said...

this is an easy one for me:

"Seemed Like A Good Idea at the Time".

Nancy Wu said...

It is impossible to find one, so how about this:

"Once upon a time, I was in the center of a tornado"
