You too can write your life story

Nowadays writing an autobiography or memoir is not just something that politicians and celebrities do. These days it is possible for anybody to create a written record of his or her life story to pass on to future generations. You don't even have to be a confident writer. If you aren't, or you simply don't have the time or the inclination to put pen to paper yourself, there are people who will do it for you.

Companies like mine (The Book of My Life) offer an affordable biography writing and printing service for ordinary people. The books that we produce do not go on sale to the general public but that does not mean that they are not of value to the people who read them. The readers are usually close friends or family of the subject who are delighted to learn about their loved one's personal history.

Of course, there is really no such thing as an ordinary person or an ordinary life. Each one of us is extraordinary in his or her own way; each one of us has a unique story to tell. Isn't it a shame that so many of these stories are assigned to the waste bin of history? Wouldn't it be incredible if the life stories of your parents or grandparents were preserved forever in book form?
