It would be a lot of fun trying to guess what the one fictional fact is with each person's autobiography.

That does sound interesting. But I suppose, depending on who comprises the group, and how long they've known each other, perhaps it may be easy for certain people to make that educated guess! I wonder how I'd do . . .

What a terrific ice breaker and it sounds like real fun. The idea is to make the fiction section fit plausibly with the facts.

Good fun I would think and you look great, and lovely with a smile I suspect.

Interesting and fun! It'll be interesting to see how far people's bios can stray into fiction without being suspected, and also of course how much 'real' stuff will be dismissed as fictional...

Oh, and I'm sure everyone says 'Thanks' for the pic, young lady!

I don't think I could write much of a biography in seven minutes.  That's not very long.  I guess I'll have to set the timer and try it.
