Like Dave Pelzer et al. Why do people enjoy reading (revelling) in the details of abuse?

Some orientalists believe that Aesop's fables are influenced by a book that was written in India thousands of years ago. The Indian version was re-written in eloquent Arabic by some one over 700 hundreds years ago:

1. What was the Indian version about?
2. What is the title of the Arabic version?
3. Who rendered the Indian version into Arabic?
4. Were Aesop's fable, in whole or part, really influenced by the Indian book?

If you are writing a type of 'memoir' about your dating life, and you mention most of the men you've dated in a tongue-in-cheek manner, do you need to get their written approval?

If you change the names, how much detail should you give before it gets too recognizable? Are changing names not enough? What defines 'malicious intent'?

How much freedom is allowed when discussing events that occurred and opinions the author may have about the individuals mentioned?

Sometimes I think the whole world has gone crazy, but then again maybe it's just me. Everyone wished for the perfect life, some people got it, I wasn't one of those people. I was sitting on a plane as it soared over the glistening water of the vast Atlantic. London, England was where I was headed, to see my dad whom I had visited every summer since I was four years old. After visiting England every summer for thirteen years, you would think I thought of it as maybe a second home or something like that. No, that's not what I thought at all. I loved London, I truly did, but it just wasn't MY place. I didn't feel like I would ever get my perfect life, or my happily ever after there. The busy streets, the brain-racketting noises, they're great, except you get used to them, maybe even to used to them. I really didn't know what to expect in London. Even though it seemed like I had it all worked out in my mind, London was so different from Phoenix.

Alot of people have said I have lived and with thru a very intersting life, although I am only 29 years of age.

But my question is, how could/would I start writing a book on my ups & downs in life? Where would I start from age 1 or now? How long would it need to be? Should I get into every detail of my life and write it down? So many questions I have about this, but I'll stop here for now.

Thanks for ya help!

One of her poems inserted here. Please tell me how to go about it-
-"Fellow Birds" -
As the sun showed it's first ray of light,
I told everyone it's time to take flight,
They asked me whether the adventure would be long,
I said it would'nt be if we hum a nice little song,
Our destination is a very long flight to London,
The decision to go there was taken very sudden,
We reached there in two days, which seemed like two hours,
My friends thought to change time I had magical powers,
We settled down on an oak tree,
In a yard that was cat free,
The yard was filled with fruits,
Berries, leaves and roots,
We had a sumptuous dinner that day,
Although there were ants, we ate it anyway,
We made friends with a family of beaver,
They gave us fresh fish from the flowing river,
I love my new home, it's like a dream come true,
Go back to my old city, a job I will never do-

I have the opportunity to take an advanced spanish class at my college. What's cool is that it would be an independent study, meaning just the professor and myself. What's even cooler is that there was the mentioned possibility of being able to PICK a novel to read. So, anyone have any suggestions? It has to be in Spanish.

Also, I already know of Isabel Allende, so let's be creative, people!!! :)

Let the answers begin.
