Frankly I think my life is pretty boring compared to most other people's, so I wouldn't, but if you think your experiences have potential, then maybe you should try it. But I'd probably start smaller with storywriting and stuff, unless you already have the design, programming, and art skills (or a team to supply some of those skills for you) to help you pull off something like a game.
I guess I don't really have much experience, but the "funnel" of progression I would imagine is something like this:
Living life, maybe diary/journal-keeping for experience logging and idea tracking --> more creative expression: that is, writing about it through things like stories, poetry, even books (you probably don't necessarily need to share with anyone if you don't want to, but it's easier than jumping right away to trying to make a game), or expression in other ways like through visual art (you do a pretty good job of that already) or music or something --> working on developing a bigger, more technical project: an animation, game, movie, etc. based on those experiences, stories, emotions, and whatnot.
Hardly a spoiler.
