Your stories. Your voice. Your legacy.

Everyone has a story worth telling. Whether it's a lifetime of memories, a collection of family stories or a manuscript you've dreamed of publishing, Touchstone Storytelling can help you bring your words to life.

Through personalized writing, interviewing, editing, book design and publishing assistance, I help individuals, families and authors transform their stories into meaningful books that can be treasured, shared and passed down for generations.

Your Life. Your Stories. A Lasting Legacy.

What is a life story?

A life story is uniquely yours.

It's the people who shaped you, the places you've been, the challenges you've overcome, the traditions you've cherished and the lessons you've learned along the way.

Your story might be a complete memoir, a collection of childhood memories, a family history, a tribute to someone you love, or a book celebrating a special chapter of life.

Perhaps you want to preserve your grandparents' memories, tell the story of your military service, document your family's favorite recipes, or create a meaningful gift for a milestone birthday or anniversary.

Whatever form your story takes, I'll work closely with you to capture your experiences, preserve your voice and create a beautiful book that reflects who you are.

You don't need to be a writer. You simply need stories to share.

You tell the stories. I'll help bring them to life.

More Than Memories. Stories You Can See, Hear and Share.

Imagine opening a family history book filled with treasured photographs and stories — and scanning a QR code to hear the voice of someone you love.

Today's storytelling offers wonderful opportunities to preserve memories in ways that go beyond the printed page.

I can help incorporate photographs, family documents, letters, recipes and links to audio or video recordings into your book, creating a richer experience for future generations.

One of my recent projects involved preserving the life story of a man approaching his 100th birthday. His family now has a book filled with his personal and family history, photographs and QR codes linking to recordings of him reading to his mother.

What an extraordinary gift to leave behind — not just his stories, but the sound of his voice.

Because the most meaningful stories are the ones we can continue to share.

Writing, Editing and Publishing Support for Authors

Not every project begins with a lifetime of memories. Some begin with an idea, a collection of stories or a manuscript waiting to become a book.

I work with aspiring and established authors to develop, refine and prepare their work for publication.

Whether you're writing a children's book, memoir, inspirational collection or another type of nonfiction, I can help you shape your manuscript for your intended audience while preserving your unique voice.

For example, I recently worked with author Eric Collins on The King's ABC Book of Parables, a collection of 26 true childhood stories connecting everyday experiences with Scripture and life lessons.

Through editing, story development, illustration coordination, book design and publishing preparation, we transformed his memories into an engaging book for children and families, complete with discussion questions, activities and QR codes linking to conversations between Eric and his daughter.

It's a wonderful example of how storytelling can connect generations.

I also assist authors with preparing and publishing their books through Amazon Kindle Direct Publishing (KDP), making their work available to a wider audience.

Your words. Your vision. Your book.
