Tell It Your Way
You’ve wanted to share your story with your family. Perhaps you even started, then put it aside when you realised how much there was to tell. This time, give yourself a smaller place to begin.
Tell It Your Way lets you write one memory at a time, with optional questions to help and no chapter order to follow.
One calendar month · No card required · Eligible verified accounts
When the task is “write my life story”, even choosing a starting point can feel like work. You may know exactly why you want to do it, and still struggle to begin.
Choose one moment you’d enjoy telling your family about. That can be a story on its own.
An example, before you decide
Fictional example to illustrate the process.
01 / An optional starting question
02 / A few words in reply
My daughter and I made pancakes one rainy Saturday. The first one stuck. She called it the practice pancake. We ate it by the stove. I hope she remembers how much I enjoyed those afternoons with her.
One rainy Saturday, my daughter and I made pancakes. The first one stuck, so she named it the “practice pancake”. We ate it standing by the stove. I hope she remembers how much I enjoyed those afternoons with her.
One afternoon, and something this parent would like their daughter to know. That is enough for this story.
Two ways to tell a story
You might welcome questions to lead you through your life. Or you might have one memory you’re ready to tell. Choose what feels comfortable.
A good place to start
Have a memory you’d like your family to know? Start with that one. Write in your own words, bring a photo, or use a question to help you begin.
Each story can stand on its own. You choose what comes next.

Would it help to have someone ask the questions? Explore the different parts of your life, from childhood and relationships to the things you’ve learned.
Questions and themed chapters give you a path to follow.
Explore guided Life StoryLife Story packages and Tell It Your Way have separate access and free-start options.
Think of something you’d like your family to know. Begin with a few words, a photo or a question to help you get started.
Write what you remember. You can save a story in progress and return to it during your writing access, without having to finish it all at once.
Read it back and make any changes. Keep the finished story for yourself, or include it in a digital book for your family.
