Your best bet is to join forces with a writer and collaborate on the project and then find an agent/editor who's interested in publishing it.

As for finding an interested writer, I'd start with the classified ads in the back of Writer's Digest magazine.

That kind of thing is usually done for movies. It's called "life-rights" which means you sell the rights to someone to make a movie out of your life. Did you do something interesting or heroic? If not, you probably won't get anybody, author or screenwriter to take you seriously. Sorry. I'm a writer, and I wouldn't pay someone just to write their life story.

Well, have you done anything really interesting that nobody else has ever done before? Think about it, what is it about your life that would make somebody want to read it?

If you really have had an interesting life, you can post a wanted ad for a writer to tackle it. You probably won't get a famous author, as they have their own stories to tell.

It seems that you want to get someone to pay you to tell him/her the story of your life. Why would they do that? Are you a celebrity or someone very important? If you are, I can work out a deal with you.
