Memory is a way of holding on to the things you love, the things you are, the things you never want to lose.
--Kevin Arnold

Let's Tell a Life Story Together

The mission of Your Story Counts is to write and preserve the extraordinary life stories of ordinary people. We can work together in any of three ways.

Option 1: You tell me your story, and I write it for you

Through a process of interviewing, transcribing, and writing, I produce personal histories that read like books and sound like the narrator. I can create a lively, engaging, high-quality archivally printed and bound book personal history book for you. If you wish, photographs and other memorabilia can enrich and enhance the text. To learn more about the process, click here: The process.

Option 2: You write your story, and I help

If you’d rather write your own story, I offer many services to help you clarify what you want to write, keep on track, and produce your story in whatever form you wish. To learn more, click here: Services for autobiographers.

Option 3: You provide me with materials you've already collected, and I create a personal or family history from them.

If you already have the raw materials (letters, photos, historical materials, geneaology, or a manuscript) and need someone to organize them and create a book, I'd be happy to help.
