HOW YOUR MEMOIR IS CREATED
A simple, personal process
from conversation to a beautiful book
We begin with a conversation
You tell me your story
I create your memoir
We talk about the memories you'd like to preserve, who the book is for and what you hope it will become.
There's no obligation and nothing to prepare.
Through relaxed, guided conversations,
I help you revisit the people, places and experiences that shaped your life.
You don't need to write anything yourself.
I shape your memories into a compelling narrative written in your voice.
You review the manuscript before it is professionally designed, proofread and printed as a beautiful book.
Most memoirs are completed within approximately four to six months.
