Life story writing

Wooden desk with a closed laptop, a notebook, a pen, a small vase with purple flowers, a beige table lamp, and brown curtains in the background.

Tell the story of your life

Some stories are worth more than a photo album or a few memories shared over dinner.

I help people put their own story into words, through a series of interviews, turned into a piece of writing that’s theirs to keep.

Open Bible, blank notepad, pen, mug of coffee on wooden tray, green plant on tray, white and beige blankets.

If this is something you’ve been meaning to do, get in touch.

What's included:

  • An initial planning session to work out the shape of the story and where to start

  • Recorded interviews, paced to suit you

  • Research, fact-checking, and timeline work as needed

  • Writing. that sounds like you telling the story, not someone else

  • A finished story about your life, ready to print or share with family


“Sarah is a brilliant writer who never fails to nail a brief while also managing to inject her own personality into a story.

She’s always happy to workshop ideas and feedback and is a great communicator, regularly keeping our editors updated on how a story or project is progressing.

Would highly recommend!”

— Jo Davy, Hardie Grant Media
