Legacy Lifewriting Packages
The Memoir Tier
For those of you looking to share the highlights, memorable moments, and the times and pieces your life you most want future generations to remember, this is for you. I help you organize, recount, and write your memories, thoughts, and cherished moments.
How it works: After completing an intake document, you record your story and send it to me. Then, we have two video interviews where I ask questions and flesh out some themes, and then I get writing!

The Autobiography Tier
At this level, I help you tell your story from your own perspective, sharing not only your life events but your interior thoughts and perspective on your world and the world around you. For those of you who want more than a polished lifestory, the autobiography tier incorporates original research into your life and times, adding more context and color to your story, entirely written in your voice, from your perspective.
How it works: I provide you an extensive intake document to prepare you for our first of many interviews, in which we figure out how much of your life’s story you want to share and which areas are most important to you. I generate additional questions for you to think about, which help me organize and write the autobiography you want written. We continue interviews as I learn your voice and discover the essence of who you are. I then craft your story entirely in your voice.

The Biography Tier
This is the full package, for people who want their story to be taken the extra mile. This is a book entirely about you, written from the third-person perspective about your life and times. It includes the same video conference question and answer format as the autobiography, but additionally includes interviews with the people in your life as well as original research. This rounds out your story, making you the subject of your own historical text.
How it works: After a video interview to flesh out major themes and milestones, I conduct exhaustive research into your life and times, including public records, periodicals, and up to ten original interviews with people who have shared part of their life journey with you. What results is not just your life story but the actual story of your life as you want to tell it, a great illustration of your life and times, and a true legacy for you to leave your descendants.
