A life chapter worth remembering.
One day, you won't be here to tell the story. Make sure it doesn't disappear with you.
Some stories are too important to leave in a phone, a box of photographs, or the memories of the people who happened to be there.
The love story.
The years you spent building your family.
The career you fought to build.
The place that changed you.
The loss you survived.
The chapter that made you who you are.
Create My Keepsake turns one meaningful chapter of your life into a professionally written, beautifully designed book your family can hold, read, and pass down.
You don't need to know how to write it.
You just need to be willing to tell it.
Through two relaxed, recorded conversations, I'll ask the questions that help bring the memories back: the people, places, little details, hard lessons, funny moments, and things you may never have thought to write down.
Then I'll shape those memories into a 3,000–5,000 word, multi-chapter story, incorporating your photographs and meaningful details into a finished keepsake.
Because someday, someone you love may want to know:
What was your life really like?
This is your chance to tell them.
Your Keepsake includes
Two 60–90 minute recorded conversations
Relaxed, guided conversations designed to draw out the stories and details you might otherwise leave behind.
Your professionally written story
A 3,000–5,000 word multi-chapter narrative written from your memories and your voice.
Your photographs and meaningful details
Family photographs and personal details thoughtfully incorporated into the book.
Two beautifully printed books
One for you. One to keep in the family.
Your complete digital archive
A beautifully designed digital version of your story, along with your original recorded conversations.
This is for you if...
You have a story you've been meaning to tell but never seem to get around to writing.
You want your children or grandchildren to know more than the dates and names in a family tree.
You have lived through a defining chapter that deserves to be remembered.
Or you simply know that “I'll do it someday” has a way of becoming “I wish I had.”
Your memories are being made right now. Capture them while you can still tell them.
I accept a limited number of Keepsake projects each month so each story receives the time and creative attention it deserves.
