FOUR SIMPLE STEPS
Creating a custom-made life story on your own can be daunting.
With our help, it’s simple.
We meet with you online and record your stories over a series of casual, friendly interviews.
You’ll see the work-in-progress as we go along and can make any changes or edits you like. But you don’t have to do any of the writing yourself; that’s what we’re here for.
Whether you have thousands of photos or just a few, we’ll help you pick out the best to include in your book, and match them to your story.
When we have the book exactly how you want it, we go into production. We’ll show you options for layout, printing, and binding, and you decide how many books you’d like — from one to hundreds.
