Projects
A project is your book-in-progress. Each project represents one complete book and includes:
- Project Type (e.g. biography, memorial, wedding story)
- Chapters to organise your content
- Questions to help you write
- Collaborators who can add content
Project Components
Chapters
The main sections of your book (like Early Years or Family Traditions). Think of them as the table of contents.
Questions
The thoughtful prompts within each chapter that help you start writing.
Entries
Your responses to those questions - these become the stories in your book.
Creating Projects
Learn how to set up your first memory book project from scratch.
Account Types
