How Make Memoir works

  1. 1
    A gentle question arrives
    Each Sunday by email or text. They pick what to answer — no pressure, no missed weeks.
  2. 2
    They talk for 5 minutes
    No writing. No typing. Just look at the camera and tell the story the way they'd tell it across a kitchen table.
  3. 3
    We polish it into a story — you approve every word
    Their voice and pacing, kept intact. You can edit, rewrite, or leave it exactly as spoken.
  4. 4
    A real book arrives at year's end
    52 stories, professionally bound, mailed to your door. Extra copies for siblings: $39 each.
