I have a project and need a topic! Suggestions?

As with any major project like this, YOU are the one who will be doing the work. Pick a person that you will enjoy writing about the most, even if it is Miley Cyrus. Your enthusiasm will shine through and it will make it more enjoyable for the reader, too. Plus, why not have fun while you are doing your project? It won't even seem like work! What a gift for you! Use it.
