Can someone please help me to write a non-fiction book?

Question

I need to write a book about my life. Basically how I felt and how hard it was for me when I came from my native country to United States.
How should I start writting? And also, what should I write exactly?

I really need someone's help because I've never done this before.
Thank you so much for your effort <33

Answer 1

You have a bunch of choices, if you like ask again with one of these ideas or a different idea you will get better results

You may write to improve the life of the reader
like Mark Twain's nonfiction or Ben Franklin's thing

You may write with passion, just what you feel

You may write with a purpose: to gain the most readers, or perhaps if your book is like a college essay, you may write to gain admission to college

You may write comedy or shock like portnoy's complaint which is fiction but reads like a book about a person's life.

a super wonderful version of a persons life is at http://www.gutenberg.org/dirs/etext94/bfaut11.txt

Answer 2

You should go to your local library and check out any autobiographies they may have. Look at how they wrote their books and what they were looking for when writing them(ex. the last answer to this question). You may also want to check out a few memiors. My favorite memior is called Heaven's Coast by Mark Doty, which may help with some ideas. Also, when looking for memiors and autobios looks for those written by otehr immigrants.

Answer 3

Write it yourself. You don't want problems with a co-writer.
