Life Story Writing: A Journey that Charts your Future!

Our elders are a treasure we can't afford to lose!

Give your family a life story book they will cherish for generations! Every family needs an elder who is willing to share their life story. Like a pilot, they chart the course of the family from history to the present and into the future.

You are creating a living family legacy!

It's your story and no one can write it like you can. Your story contains the building blocks to your family's future. In our step-by-step system you are guided on a journey highlighting all three aspects of your being: Mind, heart, and body so that you can create a living family legacy. This legacy will chart your family's future!

We have what you need: "Do-It-Yourself" or "Done-for-You" Life Story Books. Step-by-step we will guide you through the writing process and you can be published in as little time as a month!

Why create a "living family legacy" through writing your life story? Why not?

"Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It's not just in some of us; it's in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others." ~ Marianne Williamson, from "A Return to Love: Reflections on the Principles of a A Course in Miracles" Bold and italics mine.

Writing your life story creates a family legacy that charts a course from your history to the present and into the future.

Marla January 24, 2011 at 4:46 am: I love this! One of my sisters and i are trying to get as many stories from my gandma as possible. My Mom is also trying to write more things down as she remembers them and as they happen to her, for the grandkids. Very cool! ‘extra like’
Anonymous January 24, 2011 at 4:43 am: Great idea. Simplicity is key to my life right now! thank you for your suggestion!

Susan McKenzie January 23, 2011 at 2:55 pm: Hi Debra, thanks for sharing! I can certainly relate to you… now that I’m a grandma traditional scrap-booking becomes an even more overwhelming process to keep track of all the photos and memories, but this Life Story Book kit makes it much more SIMPLE and most of all, FUN! If there’s anything I can help you with, please be sure to share – it makes it even easier when we share our process with a like-minded community! I’m here to serve in any way I can help Thanks so much for taking the time to stop by and to comment!

Debra Pickford January 23, 2011 at 2:42 pm: What an awesome story, I was a scrap-booker for a few years but it got overwhelming to keep up with it and so time consuming. Your 7 steps plan is so wonderful, it makes so easy to get back into capturing the memories for my children. THANKS!
Susan McKenzie January 21, 2011 at 9:29 pm: Hi Joy,

That is my goal: That everyone would read through it and feel empowered to begin writing, no matter what experience they may have! Thank you for stopping by and commenting… I look forward to hearing more of your story, Joy!
Anonymous January 21, 2011 at 8:52 pm: The steps are so easy and the “All-in-one” kit has taken the overwhelm out of beginning and finishing within the realm of possibility!!!! Thank you for sharing this AND your story.
Susan McKenzie January 21, 2011 at 8:15 pm: Scarlett, I know you will have such fun – your family experiences are already memorable and I love hearing your stories! I can only imagine how documenting your stories will increase the fun! Thanks so much for stopping by and commenting!

Susan McKenzie January 21, 2011 at 6:53 pm: Thank you, I appreciate your comment about a life story lasting beyond one or two generations… I see our lives affecting our families even 1000 generations from now! Thanks so much for stopping by
Twlclaudia January 21, 2011 at 6:14 pm: Susan, you are helping and teaching us to leave precious mementos and ‘legacy’ to our next generations. Rather than buying a bunch of stuff that will go unnoticed, these will last a life time and over. Bravo.
Susan McKenzie January 21, 2011 at 6:02 pm: Hi Ruth, it’s a pleasure to meet you! Stories bond families and organizations like nothing else… it’s almost a no-brainer to write them down, yet people often procrastinate! Thank you, Ruth, for taking the time to visit and to commend – have a great weekend!
Susan McKenzie January 21, 2011 at 6:01 pm: Sue, you are a marvelous storyteller – you really must have gotten that gift from your dad! And, yes, I highly recommend writing down the stories you remember your dad telling… the more the years go by, the less we remember all the details…. yet, the impact will remain for generations if we write these stories down!
Susan McKenzie January 21, 2011 at 5:59 pm: Thanks so much Tiffany …. I’m looking forward to hearing more of your story and here to help, if needed!
Ruth Mccrackin January 21, 2011 at 5:32 pm: Wow…this is a phenomenal concept…where have you been hiding this great Life Story Book idea! Absolutely intriguing and I admire you for sharing it with the world. Look forward to more books out the hat ideas for families. Thanks a million Susan!
Sue Graber January 21, 2011 at 5:31 pm: Wow, this is such a neat idea. I totally believe we all have a story to tell, and how wonderful that we can pass this on to our children, their children, etc. My dad was always known for “telling stories” of events in his life…We always wanted him to write a book of his own and he never got that done befoe he died…but I’d love to be able to honor him and pass some of those stories on that I remember him telling and that I treasure so much. THANK YOU for showing us how we can do this!
Tiffany Johnson January 21, 2011 at 5:24 pm: This is great Susan! I love a laid out plan, makes it so much easier to follow. Everyone has a story. I’m looking forward to getting my free info.
Susan McKenzie January 21, 2011 at 2:01 am: Hi LaTalya! It’s really fun to create stories together and document them, isn’t it? I wish you the best on your life journey!
LaTalya January 21, 2011 at 1:42 am: I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this and see great value in creating your own Life Story Book. As I get older and my children grow, it becomes ever so important to document and cherish our Life Journey together Thanks!
Susan McKenzie January 20, 2011 at 10:26 pm: Hi Donovan… life story writing is becoming more and more popular! I’d love to encourage and help you in any way I can… it’s my passion! Thank you for stopping by
Donovangrant January 20, 2011 at 9:56 pm: Susan that’s a great coincidence. It’s just the thing I was discussing with my mum a little while back, capturing the family legacy.
Susan McKenzie January 20, 2011 at 8:35 pm: It’s indeed easier to record your life story today than any other time in history… thank you for sharing, Carol. I would be delighted to assist you in any way I can!
Carol Giambri January 20, 2011 at 8:26 pm: So fortunate to know you! I believe all need to follow you!
