Frequently Asked Questions

A Keepsake biography is a collaborative way to document someone's life story through guided questions and shared memories. Unlike writing alone, it brings family and friends together to capture different perspectives, creating a richer portrait of your loved one's journey, wisdom, and experiences.
You'll start by selecting chapters that match the story you want to tell. Each chapter contains thoughtful prompts designed to spark memories and conversations. You can work through questions together with your loved one, or gather stories from multiple family members. Add photos, edit as you go, and build their story at whatever pace feels comfortable.
Absolutely! The best biographies blend perspectives. Your loved one can answer prompts directly, sharing stories in their own words. You can also sit together and type while they talk, or they can review and add to what others have written. It's completely flexible to work with different comfort levels with technology.
Think about who knows different sides of your loved one's story. Siblings might remember childhood adventures, old friends can share school stories, and colleagues could add workplace memories. Every contributor enriches the biography with their unique perspective and memories.
That's the beauty of collaboration! Different perspectives make stories more complete. You can include multiple viewpoints of the same event, showing how each person experienced it. These variations often lead to laughter and deeper conversations about shared memories.
Many people downplay their own accomplishments, which is why biographies work so well. Family and friends can highlight achievements and qualities your loved one might skip over. The collaborative approach helps create a more complete picture than they might write alone.
There's no rush. Some families enjoy weekly sessions over tea, while others add stories whenever they visit. The process itself becomes meaningful time spent together. You can always return to add more stories, and there's no deadline to meet.
A Keepsake biography becomes treasured in two ways: the final book is a beautiful keepsake, but the process of creating it together is equally valuable. You're giving the gift of being heard, of time spent together, and of seeing their life story valued and preserved for future generations.
