Step 1 - Writing Your Memoirs
The first step is obviously writing out your memoirs. This can be more complex than it initially seems. You may remember things differently than other people or you may not remember things at all. Sharing your stories with friends and family while you write them out can make this process a lot easier. We offer free prompts and a free template to make this process a bit easier.
Step 2 - Preparing Your Memoirs For Publication
Preparing your memoirs for publication can be simple if you are working with the right person. We highly recommend choosing a personal historian that you can trust and with an established body of work. It may seem like a high cost up front, but you will be significantly happier with the final product and you will save money compared to trying to do it on your own.
Step 3 - Publishing and Sharing Your Memoirs
Publishing your memoirs in the right way is absolutely essential. We recommend creating both a digital and physical copy; they may be formatted very differently. Physical copies are perfect for handing out at family parties or keeping on your bookshelf to hand down to future generations. Digital copies of your memoirs are perfect for sharing on social media or emailing to family and friends you don’t see in person on a regular basis.
Hopefully you found this guide helpful and that publishing personal memoirs is now a simple process.
