     We create an easy, seamless experience for you in your storycrafting journey.

Here's how we work. We:
  • Interview you and others you select, as needed, for meaningful context and important relationships
  • Write your stories, review, revise and edit them with you
  • Create illustrated timelines and photo displays
  • Enrich your written story with film, sound, images
  • Design a professional publication for your review and approval
  • Publish and register with the ISBN agency and Library of Congress the version you approve in print. If you choose, we help you secure your URL and publish your legacy book on the web as downloadable PDF or in an e-book format.

Evocative and enduring, legacy stories embody your life history.

Through legacy stories, you can capture cherished relationships, challenges, successes, beliefs, values, visions, loving reflections, hopes, dreams...the trips you took and the dares you didn't.

The arc of your life curves beyond you to envelop family with the meaning of your intent. We help you make this, clear, compelling and enfolding connection.


       Leave the legacy that lasts and matters most...let your life stories live.
