Is It Time to Tell Your Story?
Most Families Wait Until
It’s Too Late…
Don’t let your family’s stories become another I wish I had asked, regret.
Begin The Journey With Purpose
Every story deserves to be remembered. Especially yours. You’ve lived through moments in Australia’s history, no one else has—and if these stories are not captured, those memories disappear forever.
What you remember may one day be all that’s left—let it be something true, and something beautiful. A memoir of you.
Our work begins with respect: for your experiences, your timing and your voice. Whether you’re thinking of capturing your own story or that of someone you love, the decision to begin a memoir is a profound one. We don’t rush or overcomplicate—we listen, guide and help shape your memories into something enduring. With a process built on trust and structure, we support you from your first conversation right through to your finished book. This is legacy work. Thoughtful, beautiful, necessary.

Clarity on your memoir’s scope
This 50-minute session is where every commissioned memoir begins. It’s not a sales call—it’s a structured conversation guided by a professional memoirist to uncover what matters most in your story, why now may be the time to tell it, and how we could preserve it meaningfully for your family.
Listening
Every story begins with deep, respectful listening—because what you say, and how you say it, shapes the heart of the memoir we’ll create.
Clarity
We help you discover the strongest narrative threads in your life, giving shape and purpose to your story before the writing begins.
Timing
We explore why now matters—because memory fades, and some stories must be told while the voice is still clear and alive.
Direction
You’ll leave with a clear next step, whether it’s proceeding with your memoir or simply holding a structured outline for reflection.
We believe every story matters — and it’s never too early to begin.
You know your family has stories worth preserving — stories of immigration, hardship, triumph, and love. These are the quiet yet powerful moments that shaped who you are and helped build the Australia we know today. And yet, it’s easy to hesitate. You might wonder when the right time is, how to begin, or whether these memories are “important enough” for a real memoir. But the truth is, if they matter to you, they’re worth capturing — before they’re lost. Forever.
The Past is Still Within Reach
Old photos, voices, and details are still accessible — but they won’t be forever. That little boy in the photo? His story deserves more than a drawer. Let’s bring it to life while it’s still clear in someone’s heart.
Your Family is Together — For Now
That smiling photo at a family gathering? It’s a rare moment. People move, memories fade, and time moves on. Capturing these connections while you can makes all the difference.
Elders Hold the Key
Our elders carry living history. Their hands may be slower now, but their stories are rich and vivid. Don’t wait until it’s too late to sit beside them, press ‘record’, and honour their voice in a lasting way.
Why Timing Is Everything When Writing a Memoir
The best memoirs aren’t just well-written — they’re perfectly timed. Whether it’s for a grandparent’s 80th birthday, a family reunion, or preserving stories before they’re lost, we help you capture your family’s perfect memoir moment.
To Capture Your Story
Our Memoir Discovery Session is a dedicated hour long conversation designed to help you explore your story in a meaningful way. It’s not about having all the answers—it’s about beginning the journey. With gentle guidance from a skilled memoirist, we’ll talk through the moments that matter, what you hope to preserve, and how your story might take shape. There’s no pressure, just presence.
Many people feel unsure about where to begin, what to include or whether their story is worth telling. This session helps bring clarity, confidence and perspective. You’ll appreciate the sense of direction, whether you’re ready to go ahead now or simply need time to reflect. If you’re not ready, you’ll walk away with a clearer sense of your story and what it means—for your family, your legacy, and yourself.
