One Step at a Time
Organization
An important first step when capturing and eventually writing one’s own personal narrative or family story is organization. There are proven methods in creating order out of the multiple files, boxes, photos and documents, uncovering and discovering the history available at one’s fingertips. Let Legacies help you create systems of access and order before you take your research and writing steps.
Research
The availability of online information has multiplied exponentially. If further genealogical research is needed to locate and verify family names, dates and locations, Legacies will expand its network to provide contacts of certified genealogists to help reach into the depths of your ancestry and fine tune your search.
Writing
Self-Written, Ghost Written, or Coached? That is the question. Legacies Life Writers are professional interviewers and writers with backgrounds in journalism, public relations and education. During the initial interview Legacies considers the author of the manuscript from Legacies as the ghost writer to collaboration with Legacies as a partner or coach. Within the interview process, age, background, ability and needs of the interviewee are also considered with the appropriate interviewer and writer assigned to capture the colors and texture of a life well lived.
