Life Story Writing

Professionally Written
Life Stories

How Does It Work?

A Life Story is as much or as little of the recipient’s life story as you wish to record. It is written in the recipient’s voice, (in first person), like a memoir or mini biography. It is a keepsake for the family, as well as being a gift of respect for the recipient.

Your Life Story Writing purchase includes:

Initial consult between the commissioning person and the Life Story writer
Research on the period and significant events/locations etc of the Life Story recipient.
Formulation of interview questions
A gently guided interview with an experienced lifestyle journalist
One edit by the commissioning person or Life Story recipient, if desired
Up to 30 colour photographs included in relevant placing throughout the story
The professionally written, edited, and formatted Life Story
The final Life Story, full colour printed on finest-quality paper stock, beautifully packaged in an elegant, sturdy keep-sake box, and loosely bound so pages with future stories and photographs can be added if desired.
