Your memories are like the squares of a quilt, richly textured and unique. How long have you promised yourself that you would write the stories of your life?

Births, weddings, anniversaries, travels, family gatherings, and tributes to loved ones are part of your family history and should be preserved.

My enjoyable memoir writing method will "quilt" your memories together, creating an heirloom to be cherished for years to come.

Years of experience as a social worker have shown me the value of recalling and sharing one's life history. The aspect of social work that I have most enjoyed has been the numerous interviews I have done with people of all different backgrounds and life stages.

I believe that everyone has many stories to tell and that life grows richer with each story that is shared. That is true not only for the storyteller, but also for those who have the privilege of hearing or reading the stories.

As wonderful as it is to sit and talk with family and friends, many of our anecdotes will be lost if we don't take the time to write them down. When we write the stories of our lives, we take   our sharing to another level. Our memoirs can be a precious intergenerational gift for the whole family, and can inspire other family members to preserve some of their own stories.
