Trying to remember a word that's disappeared out of my head

Hi,

It's a word that describes what a story is that someone has presented about themself and a specific life experience of theirs. I can't remember what the word is for some reason...

Sorry if I'm not being too clear.

Thanks in advance,

Regards,

tHatDudeUK.
