Help with writing and producing your life story or family history
 
  • Would you like to write your life story or family history but don't know how, or where, to start?
  • Have you already started writing but aren't satisfied with how things are progressing?
 
  • We offer a wide range of professional writing, editing and production services to help you write your life story or family history and transform it into printed books to give your family and friends.
Whether you have produced your book as a computer file, a typescript, a handwritten manuscript or on recorded tapes, we can transform it into well-written, edited and professionally printed books or computer print-outs.

Old pictures can bring the past back to life

  • Re-writing  If you've written your book but feel that your style isn't sufficiently fluent, we can re-write it for you.
  • Editing  If you're happy with your writing style, but feel that somehow your book still doesn't 'work', we can edit and re-organise the text to improve the 'flow' and make it more interesting to read.
  • Transcribing and editing recorded tapes  If you have recorded your life story on tapes, we can transcribe them and edit the transcript to make a more readable text.
  • Scanning your photographs, etc.  We can scan your photographs and any other illustrations you want to include, such as certificates and documents, and insert them in appropriate places in the text.
  • Designing and printing  If you're happy with your text and illustrations but don't know how to transform your computer file into a printed book, we can design and print it for you.
  • Typing service  Our skilled and accurate typists can convert your manuscript - whether handwritten or typed on a typewriter - or recorded tapes into computer files.  You then have the option of producing your book as a computer printout, for example in a ring-binder format, or having it professionally printed and bound.
