Writing/Telling Your Life

We are all storytellers.  Everyone knows at least one story that they’d like to pass on – the story of your life.  Have you ever wanted to write down the story or your life, or tell it to somebody important to you?  But you don’t know where to begin.

First, you have to decide what the purpose is for your story.  Is it to help your children/grandchildren know who you are?  Or is there a specific story in your life that you think would help others to not make the same mistake?  Maybe you want to write down the genealogy of your family so future generations will understand where you fit.  Do you want to write down your stories so you can make sense of your life?  Or maybe your life is so interesting you are convinced it will be a bestseller … if only you can write it down.

If you are interested in this process, feel free to download my article, “Telling Your Life.” It will help you get started, whether you want to tell your story to a video recorder, talk with a family member and get it down on tape or video, or write your memoir.

I can help you get started, or act as interviewer, or edit your notes, or ghostwrite your story – for a fee.   Email me if you want to pursue this.
