The true story of your life is the one you put into words.
Would you rather be just a name on a family tree, ora real person with a voice, story, and wisdom your family can still turn to?
The stories, finally told
You've lived a life worth preserving. Richard draws out your inner storyteller through deep conversation, and shapes your words into writing that captures who you truly are.
A book as beautiful as the life inside it
Every memoir is custom designed and printed, rich with the photographs and documents that bring your story to life.
Your eternal gift
Your family will always have your voice, your values, your hard-won wisdom — and will know the role you played in making them who they are. Even after you're gone, you can tell them yourself.
Hi, I’m Richard
My grandfather flew fighter planes over the Pacific during World War II, came home, and built a business from nothing in New York City. When he asked me to write his memoir, I had no idea that experience would change my life. Dozens upon dozens of memoirs later, Grandpa remains my inspiration.
01
Conversations
We begin by discussing your vision — what you want to capture and who you're leaving it for. From there, I guide you through deep, purposeful interviews, drawing out the stories, decisions, and hard-won lessons that define your life and legacy.
02
Editing & Writing
Once your interview recordings are accurately transcribed to capture your expressions, I apply my writing and editing expertise to create an engaging narrative that expresses your true spirit.
03
Images & Artifacts
A memoir is richer for what it shows as well as what it says. Together we select the images and documents that deepen your story.
04
Design & Delivery
Your memoir is designed to the highest publishing standards.
