Writing The Stories Of Our Retirees – Would You Like Your Tales Typed Up?
• Are you retired and full of stories?
• Want the tales of your life typed, polished and published?
• Want to create a written keepsake before the words and memories are gone?
Mike’s here to help.
Often I’m called upon to capture and polish the words of people who have lived ordinary and extra-ordinary lives. I’ve helped people record stories about genealogy, family separation and reunion, war antics, careers, and lives in farming, letters and love.
My job is to make it easy to get senior citizens’ stories written before they’re gone.
Get in touch if you’d like me to sit with you or someone you care about and start writing. We can turn personal stories into:
Printed books
Electronic books (e-books)
Websites and webpages
Newsletters
Social media profiles
