Today I’m launching my first blog. I’m very excited to be making my entrance into the online world. I’m also nervous about the commitment to blog on a regular basis.

First things first

A little about me. I’m a personal history writer. I help people turn their memories into a book they can share with their family and friends. We do a series of interviews and then I edit and organize the stories, add family pictures and lay it all out into a keepsake book. It can be a personal memoir or the story of a family business.

Often my clients are worried they’ll lose track of their family stories and their connection with the past. They want to preserve that heritage, but they don’t know how to go about it or they just don’t have the time to do it themselves. That’s where I come in.

Future topics

As I envision it now, future topics will fall into four categories: my own memories, samples from others memoirs (used with permission, of course), topics in personal history and other topics that interest me. I’m sure to stay safely away from politics and organized religion because there are enough other people writing on those topics, but anything else could show up from time to time.

Let me know what you think. Also, be sure to check out my book recommendations page.

I’m glad you’re here!
